Show and sale rules are important for the Charmoise Society as they ensure uniformity, promote breed standards, assure quality, foster fair competition, instill market confidence, and contribute to the overall development and success of the Charmoise sheep breed. We ask that all our breeders adhere to the Society rules for shows and sales.
- Adult Sheep & Lambs – NO trimming, carding, combing, colouring of the fleece allowed. Tails may only be squared.
- The face and legs may show brown colouring but the main fleece should have no black or dark spots.
- All lambs shown need to be registered by 1st of July.
- Teeth to be correct.
- Ewes sound in udder and all aged ewes to of reared lambs in current year.
- Tails of correct length (they MUST cover vital parts).
- Where possible all sheep to be let loose when shown.
- All male & female sheep sold at society sales to be club registered before sale.
N.B. In relation to primestock shows / winter fairs, none of the above applies.
