Shetland Cheviot Sales
What is a Shetland Cheviot?
Bred in Shetland from a Shetland ewe and a North Country Cheviot ram. The Shetland Cheviot inherits the prolifiancy, hardiness, easy lambing, milkiness and mothering ability of the Shetland breed, with the superior carcass conformation and growth of the North Country Cheviot.
Why buy a Shetland Cheviot?
The mature Shetland Cheviot is a proven performer. With mothering and milk yields above average and a small mature size, the Shetland Cheviot is a good economic purchase which suits modern markets.
Healthy Natural Environment
The Shetland Islands are renowned for its natural and healthy environment in which no evidence of EAE has been detected, the Shetland Cheviot has a high health status in line with the Shetland Animal Health Programme.
The official Shetland-Cheviot Society Sale will be held on Friday 28th September 2006.
