i dont know how to highlight a quote SG, but right in the middle it says dont go jumping up and down about base sizes. it also says that ALL THINGS BEING EQUAL. i dont know anywhere in the world where sheep have the life they do at cadomin. zoos maybe? look at what they eat and the protection they have from people and predators. im not saying wolves bears and cougars dont exist, but the high presence of people keep them from living a fully natural life as well.
again...all things being equal, base circumference will carry throughout the horn to create larger rams at maturity ON AVERAGE. just curious, the long standing world record that croussen's ram beat out was from the south. anyone know offhand what his bases were? sorry darcy, but the croussen ram is the exception and not the rule.
