Thistledown Kelvin Cairngorm Thistledown Severn Nikos Thistledown Kieran Knightrider
Price: Sold! Price: Sold! Price: Sold!
Iris's true black son, Kelvin, arrived on November 8, 2008. He has awesome conformation - strong broad neck and shoulders with heavy bone, and carries himself like a macho already. Fiber is very soft-handled, fine and crimpy and feels downright oily. Both his parents are remarkably dense, with excellent staple length and compact, heavy-boned conformation, and this little guy is built like a proverbial brick outhouse. At 4 months, he weighed 60lbs. This one is an absolute beauty, with phenomenal coverage and a beautiful head. He is the fifth black cria in a year that his Champion silver grey sire, MacDhui, has sired, out of all brown and beige dams. We retain 5 breedings to Kelvin for our own breeding program. Congratulations and thanks to Margaret and Danny of VA on their purchase of this beautiful true black junior herdsire prospect - we'll miss him!  Severn was quite the surprise, out of 3X Champion dark silver grey sire, Nikos, and our blue ribbon-winning true black dam, Lady. Born on December 13th, with a pedigree to die for - Felix, Yupanqui, Snowmass Nova, Hannaruh, Fantasy's Gremlin and Outback Gold - his coloration is most unusual. He has a bay black head, neck and lower legs, plus black fibers shot through his brown blanket, and a white "7" on his face. He is like a negative rose grey, and has wonderful conformation and presence. Interesting little guy, with lovely fine, crimpy fiber - we are looking forward to seeing him shorn, when his markings should look even more dramatic! We retain 5 breedings to Severn. Congratulations and thanks to Margaret and Danny of VA on their purchase of this beautiful junior herdsire prospect, with rare coloring and excellent fiber characteristics. Kieran is a 3/4 Peruvian, 1/4 Accoyo male, with a solid black blanket, a white head and knee length socks, plus black shoes on all four feet. His dam, Caterina, is the MAPACA fleece Champion half Accoyo granddaughter of Accoyo Camilio and Victor's VAccoyo, and even at 5 years of age, she has fiber with handle to die for - last year her fiber still felt as good as many of our award-winning yearlings. Kieran's Champion sire, Knightrider, is the full Peruvian son of Black Ice and a black dam from the 6th Peruvian importation. Kieran has crimpy, bright true black fiber that feels like spun silk. His name is derived from both Cair, Welsh for "dark", and Ciaran, Irish for "dark", "black" and we retain 5 breedings to him for our own breeding program. Congratulations and thanks to Margaret and Danny of VA on their purchase of this beautiful true black junior herdsire prospect!

Congratulations and thanks to David and Bonnie of VA on their purchase of this maroon, recessive black, 15/16 Peruvian son of two colored, Champion parents. His maroon fiber is so glossy it looks and feels wet - wonderful handle, uniformity and crimp already, and we expect him to exhibit the same excellent density of both of his parents, together with their outstanding conformation, carriage and coverage.
