CUERVO AT 17 YEARS OLD still has 26 AFD micron fiber. We are sooo pleased with this boy and his lasting fineness. He is the protector guy on the farm and let's us know if there is a problem or stranger on the property. Cuervo is a unique animal with very distinctive facial marking. He has some great ancestry in PPPeruvian Augusto, 4Peruvian Starr Khan. Cuervo is always very correct in stance with tail up, head and ears up with an 'I'm IT" attitude. With his low micron at his age, he will bring lasting fineness to your females. We still get about 7-8 lbs of fiber at shearing from Cuervo. We have so many offspring from him on our farm and at others. You won't go wrong adding him to your program. Just a note about Cuervo's grandsire: PPPeruvian Augusto was the year 2000 highest selling Huacaya Male at $226,000. At his 3rd shearing Augusto had an incredible 18 pounds of fiber. Cuervo's fiber, at the age of 16 years, weighed almost 7 pounds and was at 26.7 microns Cuervo has been a great asset to our breeding program.
