Under the radar….
….we’ve been paying a lot of attention to the English Devon here on our own pasture, but a photo from Georgia reminds us we have the start of another line developing there. She’s Essington Park Buttercup….and she’s under the tender care of Doyle Unruh who handles our recips. (click to see her nose and rump)
Brian Drake’s Essington Park herd has been dispersed now but for years it was one of England’s leading Devon farms. TDA Buttercup will be carrying on the tradition here in the States, as we intended when we began this project four years ago. We wanted to be sure not to lose the best, traditional Devon genetics.
