24 - The Continentals - Beltex Sheep

Toplines and Tales - A podcast by Andy Frazier - Fridays

Categories:

This week we discuss the origins of the Beltex sheep with Belgian scientist Jurgen Depoyt and Scottish breeder, John Barclay, better known as Beachy. Jurgen explains some of the technical side of double muscling, before we look at some of the early flocks and rams that literally shaped the breed. I have some personal interest in this episode!
