"VELVY" is a Medium Silver Gray multiple Blue Ribbon Winner having taken 1st Place Fleece at 2002 MAPACA and 1st Place Halter at 2002 Magical Farms Futurity. Her sire, CPeruvian SILVINO, is considered light rose grey according to the official ARI color charts, however, he is a unique Peruvian male in North America in that his fleece is actually pink! He is both dense and crimpy with excellent conformation. VELVETEEN is aptly named. Her fleece is extremely fine and exhibits wonderful brightness and character. She is very uniform in color with excellent density and exhibits a nice soft handle. "VELVY" is a proven female and excellent mother with six EXCEPTIONAL offspring to date and is due with her 7th cria Sept. 2010. She is an easy birther, has an abundant supply of milk, and passes all her wonderful qualities on to her crias...including her lovely medium silver grey color! She has been bred to a Medium Rose Grey, a Dark Silver Grey, twice to a Light Fawn, a Medium Fawn, and twice to a True Black. 4 out of her 6 cria have been that lovely MSG grey, with the exception of her last 2 births, which have been true black, and all have done very well at Level 5 shows across the country. Several have won Championships and all have ribboned within the top 3 slots in their individual classes. Velveteen has been bred to some of the most well-known and best herdsires available, including Silvio (MSG), Danko (MRG), twice to Lancaster (LF), Black Mesquite (TB), Formula 1 (MF) a JERICHO son, and Gypsy Chip (TB) out of west coast herdsire Chito Jose (DF).

Description

We are so proud of owning Silver Centaur and continuing what Alan Clark and Hernan created. We love the cross that Centaur throws. Wonderful fleece!! Lancaster's Centaur is exceptional. This 7x Blue ribbon winner and Reserve Color Champion has it all - award winning dense, yet fine fleece that maintains a low micron, great color genetics, and he produces award winning cria. All of this make this a superb herdsire. Lancaster Centaur's pedigree includes his famous sire 588 Peruvian Lancaster who himself is a 14x multiple blue ribbon winner, color champion and Get of Sire legend. Both Lancaster's fleeces are consistent and so are their show winnings. Lancaster Sr. has been called, by more than one judge: "the total package." Lancaster Centaur also has MFI Velveteen and 6 Peruvian Conan in his pedigree. Lancaster Centaur exhibits the rare grey combination of superb fineness and density and he carries a very consistent, high-amplitude crimp style throughout his uniform grey blanket. His bone structure is very dense and he carries his correct frame very proudly. Lancaster Centaur is a 7x blue ribbon winner including MAPACA and PAOBA shows and a Reserve Color Champion. Judges rave and praise his fineness, density and superior physical development. Lancaster Centaur's fleece continues to be entered into spin-off competitions where he consistently takes 1st and 2nd place, even in the large shows of AOBA and MAPACA. You know you have a great grey fleece when the spin off judge comments "Wow!" for fineness and "Wow Wow Wow!!" for handle! Lancaster Centaur's 2011 fiber biopsy results have confirmed what we have felt and seen all along . Norm Evans' comments were: "superior density, top-level gland presence (4 out of 4), high S/P ratio and lack of secondary medulated fibers. He is certainly on track to follow in his famous sires footsteps by maintaining fineness throughout his adult breeding career!" Lancaster Centaur's crias all carry an amazingly fine fleece, AND they all have very square, solid conformation and beautiful, uniform heads and complete coverage. Lancaster Centaur produces black and grey crias 100% of the time when bred to black or grey dams, and 65% of the time when bred to other colors . . . including white! Lancaster Centaur's crias are winning in the show ring, placing no lower than second at Level IV and Level V shows. His crias are ranging from 14.9 to 21.7 AFD even in black and grey. His grandchildren are incredible too! Man of Steel is one of them!!!! Don't miss your opportunity to own or breed to Lancaster Centaur, this fantastic multiple award winning silver grey male, to put some fine, exceptional color on your herd and produce your own champion & award winning cria! in 2018 - Lancasters Silver Centaur was in the top 15% of EPD's!
