Expectations were extremely high for Sadie's cria sired by Snowmass Royal Rose and we have not been disappointed. When a cria of this quality hits the ground you're glad it's a boy! Odin has grown into young man of incredible poise and stature and his fiber just gets better and better. He exhibits consistent, incredibly dense, high frequency, high amplitude crimp from topknot to belly to stifle. Every judge he's shown under has commented on his commanding presence, gorgeous head and outstanding density. We can't wait to see what he puts on the ground. Much to our delight this fall Odin received the Blue at Big"E" then turned around and was awarded the Blue and Reserve Color Champion at the Coastal Classic. As if that weren't enough he received another Blue in the Fawn catagory at the fleece competition! Odin was awarded the Blue at Empire and Second at the highly competitive Green Mountain Show in Vermont, atta boy! Odin is a popular guy this season, looks like 10-12 Odin offspring due next year with a couple of breedings still waiting in the wings. Not bad for a guy just now 2 years old. Odin's cria are here and do they look great! They are very consistent in conformation and presence and the fleeces are gorgeous! It appears he is adding adding density AND fineness to the females he's bred to. Look for them at the spring 2009 shows!

Blackberry's second daughter Moonacre Midnight Mischief has her dam's non-fading, inky blue-black coloring and her sire's silky handle, fineness and brightness. Her fleece exhibits a reasonably well-defined medium frequency, low amplitude crimp along a lengthy staple. She has excellent, square, proportionate conformation, straight legs, ample bone, excellent coverage and a correct bite. Where she got that mischievous nature I have no idea. Mischief gave birth to medium fawn male with character and density for days! Sired by our own CCNF Royal Odin and born on the Fourth of July at a respectable 17.9 lbs and an IgG of 3000, Sam is as vigorous as he is handsome.
