Very Good cows not at the Island Show
EGCS Joint Presidents George and Elsie Fallows travelled to Guernsey last week to attend the Island Show, but were able to visit 4 herds that do not compete at the Island Show and were pleased to spend time with Guernsey farmers and their families and saw some outstanding cows that would have been very competitive had they been at the show on Thursday. With Guernsey Island hosting the 2013 Guernsey World Conference there does need to be a concerted effort to get some of these cows to the Conference Show. The Australians managed to put on a superb display in 2007 in the midst of a serious drought and given the vast distances that separate the breeders overthere so lets hope that Guernsey can put on an inclusive display.
The Adamsons herd of Frank and Caroline Le Cheminant contained some outstanding cows and I wasn’t able to identify every cow that I photo’d but a good cow is a good cow whether you know who she is or not!
