I have Barbado sheep, registered Barbados Blackbelly sheep (horned) I also
have none registered stock. I have a young man in 4-H who wants to show one
of each....registered and unregistered. I find no standards for the
Barbado...only the Barbados Blackbelly. Yet when I look on the University
of Oklahoma page about Barbado there is a destinct difference in not only
name, but color, coat, and horned rams, polled ewes, etc. So do Barbado
sheep get judged the same in comformation/breed even though they have 2
other breeds mixed with them? Not being purebred BBB, would they have to
hold to the same standard as if they were Barbados Blackbelly? And one of
my ewe lambs has a white dot on the top of her head, she could never be
shown as a BBB, even if she was registered (which she is not), but how about
a Barbado? She should be able to be shown as a Barbado sheep........see
what I mean here, just a little confusing. Thanks Sue
