Velvet Challenge comes to us from Happy Hounds Ranch on West Coast. We became interested in him for our color breeding program because we were really happy seeing what his sire, Velvet Touche produces in color. This boy is a champion in the show ring and has an outstanding fleece. He produces a strong, dense staple that has an outstanding brightness and uniformity. He is a robust male with a very strong and conformationally perfect frame. We have bred him to the majority of our dark females this summer and fall and we are very excited for his 2019 cria. Velvet Challenge is a solid producing male on our farm. He has produced well over twenty cria on the farm. He primarily produces fawn and brown. His crias are well sized with good conformation and phenotype. Several of his cria have also been banner winners in the show ring. Some of these winners include Buck Brook's Velvet Flare, who is now a herdsire in Canada. Velvetina who is on the farm and bred to Zagato's Zephrite and most recently Loki's Challenge at DL Farms in Canada. Loki's Challenge took Grand Champion and Judge's Choice in the fleece category at the most recent Navan Fair Fleece Show. Velvet as we call has a nice temperament and is easy to handle and breed. We have been blessed with plenty of his Velvet Touche genetics on the farm, which was our goal, so we are now offering him for sale. He has many good breeding years left. He is priced to sell, and we can offer fleece samples and more information. A great male at a great price! Thank you and Congratulations to Dylan and Laurie McCallum on our purchase of Velvet Challenge, he is coming home!!
