CarryHouse V2 ram

I have just decided to make available 'For Sale' one of my F1 son's of CarryHouse V2.

The ram is Beechtrees 'Haydon'.
Haydon is a proven purebred sire, as well as crossing sire. He and his Mule daughters were selected last year as the Champion BFL & Progney pen at the WSWF,

under Scottish judge: David Cruikshank.

Haydon is a very strong bodied white ram, with excellent breed type, good mouth, sound on his feet and legs, and very good blue pigment. He produces progeny with great structure, very nice shoulders and neck, and very upright heads and ears. I will include photos of several of Haydon's progeny in my next posting.

Drought relief

I thought that I would share this picturesque rainbow that occured last evening after some tremendous winds and rains blew thru our area. Hopefully it signaled the end to our dry spell, as well as the heat and humidity, it was in the 90's here yesterday.

But it did come with a cost, as there are numerous trees down, as well as powerlines. We were without power for about 8 hours last evening, and dinner happened to be McD's drive thru, and even their card swipe machine was on the fritz, so it was 'cash only' if the locals wanted dinner last night.
