About the sponsor

THE Bleu du Maine Sheep Society is proud to be the registering body of both the Bleu du Maine and the Millennium Bleu in the UK. The Bleu du Maine is famed for its mothering ability, thrifty lambs, prolificacy and milkiness, and when crossed with a Beltex produces a truly bespoke carcase quality. It has the conformation of a Beltex and the stretch, lift and length of a Bleu du Maine.

To discuss this remarkable cross, call the society on 07388 848 653, or email breeddev@ bleudumaine.co.uk
