Livestock on August 21st 2008                

 

This County Show presents hundreds of top quality locally bred and reared stock from both sides of Offas Dyke. Top Judges pass their expert eye over some of the finest animals exhibited by knowlegable farmers and top handlers alike - keeping this the heart of the Denbigh and Flint Show.

In our cattle area, expect to see Holsteins, Jerseys, Shorthorn and Ayrshires in the Dairy section. The magnificent Welsh Blacks as they battle for points in this qualifying round of the 'Bull and Female of the Year' competition. See the traditional Hereford along side the British Charolais, Limousin, Belgian Blue and Simmental, leading to the Commercial Beef section.

Top shepherds and breeders show their best in our splendid sheep section - Welsh Mountain - both Black and White, the Beulah and spectacular Jacob, Suffolks, Border Leicester, Blue Faced Leicester, Lleyn, Texel, British Charollais, Welsh Half-Bred, Welsh Mule, the Rare Greyface Dartmoor and many others within the 'Any other breed' sections. 100's of sheep of all shapes and sizes, shown by shepherds as young as four and five!

**In 2008, we are again one of the qualifying Shows for the Daily Post Top Flock competition!  See their website for full details of all of the qulifying events. **

You might also see some more unusual animals - alpacas and even water buffalo are regular visitors to this show, alongside Pygmy goats and others - farming has changed a lot in the past few years! The magnificent gentle giants of the Show, the Shire Horses round off this busy and interesting area.
