This week, we have Charlie from Stonyhurst on the show. Charlie and Ferg have worked together for a long time, both passionate about breeding healthy, productive sheep. They discuss how Stonyhurst has managed to breed fine-wool sheep that don't need footrot treatment, are improving lambing and weaning percentages, and dropping their micron. Charlie also discusses Stonyhurst's cattle and deer operation, and some of the 175 years of history his family have there on the property. If you breed fine-wool sheep and you've been wondering how to fix your footrot woes, this podcast is the one for you. Head Shepherd is brought to you by neXtgen Agri International Limited .
