Romania, Holland, Germany


Magyari Szabolks, a Romanian vet, imported 10 top performance Essie Suffolk gimmers and a ram lamb to begin a Suffolk flock in Romania in 2014, having first visited the flock the previous December. They were in the top 1% of UK Recorded Suffolk sheep. The ram lamb was a son of home-bred Essie Gold Star and was a full brother of the top recorded ram lamb in the breed in 2013. Gold Star (top lamb in 2012) has sired lambs in Canada and Czech Republic.
