Berrichon Females at Worcester show & sale
I first came across the Berrichon breed when we needed a ram on short notice, and one was available to fill the slot. I liked the look of the lambs (good length and shape) that were produced from the mule ewes so from there the interest developed into a small number of pedigree ewes as a trial.

Three Counties Show – Judges Profile
I believe the Berrichons are a very underrated breed with their ability for easy lambing, good get-up and go and ability to finish quickly. I look forward to judging at the Three Counties Show in June.
