Re: [AlpacaTalk] Re: Let them eat cake.Mary responds to Libby
Oh Libby, you crack me up! That's a good one! I was just leafing
through your lovely and very expensive to produce Herdsire catalog. It
looks to me as though you've always done very well, from the beginning.
Nearly all of those animals in that catalog have MFI as part of their
registered name. These are sires born as far back as 1996, with show
results for some going back to 1999 as far as I've noticed, maybe 1998.
I don't know how many sows there were back in the old days. We only
started 10 years ago, back when AOBA was just forming. We weren't in it
in the pre-AOBA days. And AOBA only set up their own show and judging
system in 2001. So finding show results pre-2001 is going to be tough!
