Just a quick note on the BB in Germany. During my recent trip to attend the Nolana meeting in Germany it was explained to me that many or most Barbados Blackbelly in Germany stem from a donation from the communist party in Cuba to their communist colleagues in what was then East Germany. Hence there are surprisingly many Barbados Blackbelly in Germany (especially the eastern part).
In this context I would like to thank all of you again that contributed pictures of your animals for the article in the German sheep breeders magazine. Your BB pictures made the title page (though small) and the table of content page. The editor unfortunately did not select BB pictures for the article proper (they asked me to send a pool of pictures from which they made the selections). I have attached scanned copies of the two pages (and also the article in case you are interested).
