Blairich Station
Posted in New Zealand on 17. Feb, 2011
Met with Ron and Sue Small today at Blairich Station on Thursday. Station being a really big farm or what we would call a “Ranch”. It was very impressive.
We watched as yearling rams were sorted for a potential buyer. Then we travaled to the wool shed to look at fleeces. Brite white all around. Most fleeces were in the 16 to 17 micron stage.
Next we were on a drive to see the stud rams. We drove around for twenty minutes through paddocks trying to find them. At last with the help of two dogs, we were able to locate them. The Champian ram from the Christchurch Show was quite impressive. I told Ron he could come and join my studs anytime.
