The Coles entered six of their pigs in the pigs division at the show, receiving five first places and one second placing, as well as being named the Most Successful Exhibitor in the Berkshire section.
In conjunction with the Brisbane Water School, the Coles also own the pig that was named Senior Champion Reserve Boar, which went on to be crowned the Champion Senior Boar All Breeds.
“I’m very happy,” Mr Cole said.
“We were in five individual classes and won all five classes, which is great because it was a pretty good showing; there was some really good competition.”
This is the fifth year Mr Cole has entered pigs in the Sydney Royal Easter Show and he said it’s great to hear that so many Forbes people have done well at the show.
“It goes to show the quality of livestock in the Forbes area,” he said.
“We have a high standard and all breeders from this area are well represented.”
