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.
