England…Stop 4….

….20140421_200way out at the tip of southwest England…in fact, you can just make out the American colonies over the horizon.  That’s my mate….and my other “mayt”…Ivan Rowe at Land’s End.   Ivan’s Goldings farm is home for a number of our Traditional English Devon and Wooz and he are looking at a definite candidate to be next.

The trouble is the darn Schmallenburg virus which has clamped a lid on 20140421_201exports of all genetic material.  Right now we have about 25 embryos tied up by the embargo so there’s not much sense in going ahead with more flushes.

Ivan is even older than me (ok, by a couple of weeks) but we agreed we won’t stop until we drop.

While we were at Goldings, we also paid our respects to Snowdrop, dam of some of our calves here at Traditional Devon America.  This is their latest sister and Snowdrop looks as good as ever.20140421_207
