Our Genetics
Parkdale Valais Blacknose has genetics from several top flocks in the United Kingdom.
Our first embryos imported in 2018, were from two outstanding rams, Prendwick Eros and Prendwick Basil, and two exceptional ewes, Prendwick Dot and Prendwick Dell_Girl, from Jamie Wood, Prendwick Farm. This was followed by embryos from Raymond Irvine (Valais Blacknose Scotland) and Adam Kirkbride (Cumberland Valais Blacknose) and semen from Geralt and Kerry Costello-Jones (Snowdonia Valais Blacknose).
