I wanted to let you know that Oklahoma State University has finally created a separate Web page for the American Blackbelly.
http://www.ansi.okstate.edu/breeds/sheep/american%20blackbelly/index.htm Barb Lee and I developed the text for the page. In addition, I provided new information for OSU's page on Barbados Blackbelly to help visitors understand the difference between the breeds. http://www.ansi.okstate.edu/breeds/sheep/barbadosblackbelly/index.htm OSU is generally regarded as the most authoritative site on the Web regarding sheep breeds. It gets tremendous traffic, and enjoys top ranking in most of the search engines. Their inclusion of the American Blackbelly on their site validates the legitimacy of the new breed name and gives all of you even more reason to be proud of your magnificent sheep. Hopefully, these two new pages of information about AB and BB sheep will reduce the amount of confusion that people have when they acquire their first blackbelly sheep. Please note that neither page is perfect. However, after four months of working with a part-time OSU student who has minimal HTML skills and zero communication skills, I'm just happy that we were able to achieve the current results.
