and the ewe will be bred again.
That second offspring would
become the property of the Sheep
Producers group, to be °»ven away
if it is a ewe, or if a ram lamb, to
be sold tor the purpose of pur
chasing another “chain” animal.
After the chain lamb is repaid to
the association, all subsequent
offspring will remain th 6 property
of Bev for building her own flock.
A member of the 4-H program
for six years, shepherdess Bev is
active in the county’s lamb club,
Thomasville Community Club,
exchange, and county council.
She’s a teen leader and carries
projects in dewing, leathercraft
and ceramics.
Over eighty buyers from the
county, and from as far away as
upstate Pennsylvania and
Maryland, registered for the
market lamb and purebred stock
sale featured on the afternoon
program. The field day included
morning sessions on spinning,
shearing and lamb carcass cut
ting.
Although the air was chilly and heavy clouds
lumbered overhead, bidding was warm and
spirited for the market lamb and purebred sale
that capped the York Sheep and Wool
Producers field day.
