Society Sale and Bluetongue

Members in England please note – the committee is aware that it is difficult for you to decide whether or not to enter this year due to current Bluetongue regulations. Therefore the committee has decided that it will accept entries from members in England on the proviso that you can withdraw up to Sale day if restrictions do not change. No entry fee will be expected from English members this year until you confirm whether you will be attending the sale or not. Please note clearly on the entry form that you are from an English holding. We politely ask all vendors, from whatever part of the country you are from, to note on their entry forms if your sheep have been vaccinated against Bluetongue.

Please find entry forms Under the forms section on the website (see link below). 

Also available via auctioneers & Facebook group page. 

Alternatively please get in touch so we can email you direct.  Forms | Badger Face Welsh Mountain Sheep Society
