How do you say SIMPLY GORGEOUS?...we say EPHRAIM! From his incredible head to his toes, the coverage of fine, crimpy fleece will take your breath away. We had originally thought we would send a Diomedes daughter to Colorado to pair with Tuscan Gold, but somehow Athena drew that straw. The minute she delivered Ephraim we knew it had been the right choice. She has always produced dark offspring from light sires, but this shiny black cria was a beautiful surprise, and there were more to come. When we sheared Ephraim as a cria, the rolling skin on his neck and chest were beyond anything we had experienced. You can see some of the rolls in the picture of him at a few weeks. It probably explains why he sheared better than a 4 pound blanket!! of 17.4 micron fleece at 10 months of age!!…and the handle…SO buttery soft! His personality is wonderful around his pen mates and our kids. He has been getting better and better with age, and he has 4 healthy crias on the ground ON JUST OUR FARM! They have ranged from White to Dark Fawn. We have used him for so many of our farm breedings. He continues to wow us with the density and fineness he passes down! He has over 30 cria on the ground, with more coming in 2021. 2021 Histogram: AFD: 18.0 !!!!

Deanna is a very dense, crimpy, bred female. She is on the smaller side, but still produces a great amount of sheared fleece (2017 total shearing weight was 6.0 pounds). She has perfect conformation, bite, and uniformed fleece. She is related to all of our herdsires on our farm, but one; otherwise we would keep her! She has had 2 crias on our farm. Both beautiful little females. Her 2016 cria, Catalina, is out of our bay black herdsire, Ephraim. She is currently re-bred to him and due July 2018. Catalina was sold this summer to a local spinner. She fell in love with her handle. Her 2017 cria, Darcy, is a little spitfire. Beautiful luster and handle. She is also for sale. Darcy is out of AHarmony's Espiritu De Tequila. She is not yet registered, however. She is bred to our Ephraim and is due Fall 2019.
