Their origins can be directly traced back to the Dishley Leicester, made famous by the renowned British livestock breeder Robert Bakewell (1726-1795). It was Bakewell who challenged the then common practice of slaughtering the early maturing stock and then keeping the slower maturing ones to breed from. Bakewell put his theory to the test with the results having a profound impact on livestock breeding and on the economy through increases in production. His fame and prestige as an innovative breeder of livestock soon spread and Dishley saw many enthusiastic breeders visiting to learn of this new way of breeding stock. After Bakewell s death in 1795 some of his neighbours formed the Bakewell club. This was done with the object of maintaining the purity of the Dishley sheep. Many flocks of the new Dishley Leicesters were now established in Northumberland and the South-Eastern Counties of Scotland. The northern type had now become longer in the body, better sprung in the rib, more developed in the brisket and with a much more graceful set of the head and neck. It was around this time that northern breeders began calling their sheep Border Leicesters, the name being taken from the border country between England and Scotland. Records show that the Highland and Agricultural Society provided classes for both types from 1869 till 1881 and from then on only for Border Leicesters. J.C. Cochrane of Aitkenside, Geelong, Victoria established the first Border Leicester stud of note in Australia in 1881. Then a Mr. Landale, of Wandook, Deniliquin, imported 330 stud ewes and 10 stud rams from New Zealand in 1895. Stud breeders also continued to import sheep from Scotland to maintain the breeds style and character. These ewes had the advantages of high fertility and good mothering ability, so by 1960 there were over 1100 stud flocks comprising more than 500,000 Border Leicester sheep and lambs in Australia. 22
BIOSECURITY The Committee will be promoting the Nine Key Points for OJD Control at Sheep Shows recommendations and will display them at the venue along with our SheepMAP Show Audit results for your information. In addition, a protocol has been developed to help you protect the assurance level of your sheep while at our venue: The shed will have been cleaned from bedding and manure after last year s HSWF, and spelled from sheep for 12 months. Sheep will be penned in areas based on assurance categories: Minimum Declaration (0 points), Low Assurance (1-2 points) Medium to High Assurance (3 points and over) in accordance with SheepMAP recommendations. Different assurance categories will be penned in areas identified by signs and separated from other assurance category sheep by a 2m distance or solid partitions. Exhibitors are reminded to keep their sheep in their own assurance areas. Food and water are to be fed a minimum of 30cm above the ground. All sheep/lambs are to be tethered when not led or penned in their own area. Sheep will not be permitted to graze. Manure will be promptly removed from judging areas and common areas by stewards. Manure and contaminated bedding will be removed to an area that stock cannot access and sheep must be kept away from areas contaminated by bedding during pen cleaning. A steward will inspect the sheep for signs of ill health and may isolate unwell sheep. It is recommended that transport trucks are thoroughly cleaned out. Mobile Phones 23
