Omagh's Young Shepherd

Omagh's Young Shepherd

Anne Marie will be coming live from Omagh this week in celebration of Radio Ulster鈥檚 40th birthday! She will be talking with local farmers and those involved in this year鈥檚 Omagh Show as well as spending some time with the local animals, including chickens and the show鈥檚 first donkeys in 175 years!
Amongst the hopefuls is eleven year old shepherd Alex Colhoun from Gortin, who will be showing off his prized Jacob sheep. He and his father Paul are very fond of the sheep, which have won them awards in the past. Anne Marie took a trip to their home place to see the sheep getting washed and ready for the show.
