Camden Show 2017

2017 Camden Show 

Show Held Saturday 1 April 2017

Judge:  Wendy Billington

 

Camden delivered massive amounts of rain leading up to the show.  The Showring was thankfully not too bad – we have to be grateful of straw.  Thanks for the help given to us on the day from our wonderful supporters - Katie Thomas, Kristie and Sam Hayward for the work in the Showring.  Big thanks to Trace Hanson for assistance with final show preparations on Friday.  Our results are fantastic and we are humbled by the results. 

Now in the final countdown to the Sydney Royal 2017!

Perrin

 

Shearing started for another year - 22 done - around 80 to go!!  Show team, new crias - Eggsy and Bacchuas, as well as Tilly, Thoira, Mayan, Anna Banana all done.  They look so much happier without their fleece - lighter .  Happy with the fleece saddle weights.  Largest Cris saddle of only 7mths growth for Jack's Mannequin came in at 1.2kg - nice.  The top end of 2.6 off Rigby. 

 

Fleece samples also done and looking forward to results

 

  Baled up Necks and Legs -

 

 Saddles of White, Light Fawn, Medium Fawn, Browns and potentially a roan - where did Shady Business come from??

 

Today is the first of September - where is the year going.  Here is a great photo of Sochi  and Leonardo Da Vinci taken at the Picton Markets last year.  The boys are growing up now and Leo will be 3 this December.

I like this quote about Spring from JK Rowling

“The morning of the first September
was crisp and golden as an apple.”

 

Rubey participated in the Australian Alpaca NATIONAL Junior Judging over the weekend at the Australian Alpaca National Show and Sale for 2016, held in Adelaide

 

She was happy with her progress with Junior Judging, taking out Third Place overall. 

 

As always, very proud of her
