Honiton Show 2014

17 Guernseys were forward from 7 exhibitors for Colin Evans to judge. Possibly the most competitive show so far this season with every class contested.

The Maiden heifers were the best class of the day with 7 heifers from 5 exhibitors and Colin opted for the smallest pair to head his class, with Cariad Annie’s Girl in first place with Trewey Poppy, making her debut for the Adam’s in second and James Bartlett’s Hinton Gay Lass 12 in third place.

  1. They calve very easy and yet grow and compete with the big BW bulls. Final Answer has it all and how many 11 year old bulls look like that. Keep every daheutgr as they will be herd improvers.
