| 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! |

Nikos. Her dam is a multiple award-winning true black daughter
of the 5X Champion brown male, CPeruvian LB Remington, and Bo has dense,
crimpy fiber with handle like velvet. |
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.

with crimp - you can barely find his skin - and his dam is a solid full Peruvian
maroon, so Ceds offers great color potential.

color, and is currently bred with Ben MacDhui, our Champion silver grey

Congratulations
and thanks to Cynthia of TN on the purchase of this full Peruvian dark fawn /
recessive black son of a beige female who placed second in a class of 9 at
the AOBA National fleece show, and a Champion black sire who placed second
in full fleece halter classes at the AOBA Nationals and MAPACA. With upright
conformation, dense fiber, solid bone, excellent coverage and the potential
to produce full Peruvian black offspring, Shaun is an excellent junior
herdsire prospect.

Congratulations
and thanks to Cynthia of TN, on the purchase of this full Peruvian AOBA National

foundation herd and he has dense, soft-handled fiber, rock solid
conformation and a wonderful, mellow temperament.

Congratulations to Lorrie, Sadie and Ricky of
VA on the birth of Elin's healthy 17 lb son, Huey. This beige son of our
multiple blue ribbon-winning white male Tundra, is a Presidio grandson with
significant potential to produce color, as his dam, Elin, is dark brown /
recessive black, with grey and black throughout her pedigree. Huey already
has very crimpy, bright, uniform, soft-handled fiber and very solid conformation. He was up and running within an hour of his birth to
a maiden dam - way to go Elin!
|
Thanks and congratulations to
Lorrie, Sadie and Richard of VA, proud owners of this fawn / recessive black daughter of our 4X
blue ribbon-winning pinto Aurora, and our Champion true black herdsire,
Peruvian Knightrider. Alexia has soft-handled, crimpy fiber, square,
upright conformation and with two black grandparents, one grey and one
white, she should be a good choice to produce black and grey offspring.
