[QUOTE="Old_man_emu, post: 894273, member: 17893"] It great to see how things are done differently in other parts of the world. I showed sheep while in school but in breed classes, we don't have market lamb classes like that. We have "fat lambs" class which usually are pens of three and they are not halter trained they are judged in the pen. It has a total commercial focus so they usual aren't fed either, just straight from the paddock most of the time. Why don't you use halters on your lambs? We would just get our sheep into the ring and stand them up. If the judge wanted to see them walk we would let them walk freely done a laneway in shed usually. Love the heifer. You obviously have a type you are breeding to, stick to your guns and don't the judges comments have to much sway your breeding programme. To say that if she was smaller see would have one is silly, he should have said that she was not his type and as you would be aware, that "type" varies from judge to judge. Good luck and keep at it!
