Classic Grey
This little guy definitely has the coolest facial markings! A stunning rosegrey male out of our Conopa XXX daughter, Ransom, and our amazing sire Wingman (Bomber) who's now back in the US.
It's a first classic grey for Ransom and she made sure he was memorable! On top of his unique facial markings, Rusty's fleece has high frequency crimp, beautiful fineness and uniformity. He also has above average staple length and density to his fleece with great coverage from head to toe. He also has a calm demeanor which is always a big plus. We are really looking forward to seeing this boy grow into what we think will be an great herdsire one day!
UPDATE: Rusty will be joining our herdsire row in 2024! Although he is related to some of our best females, we will still make sure to find him some great candidates for his first breeding season. This male is expressing an atypical classic grey phenotype because of his "Aa" genotype but he will produce classic greys at the same rate as a normal "fully expressed" classic grey ("aa"). We plan on favoring females carrying the double ASIP mutation "aa" in order to produce a higher rate of "fully expressed" classic offspring. When producing classic offspring with "aa" females, he will throw the "fully expressed" classic pattern ("aa") and the "atypical" classic pattern (Aa) on a 50/50 basis.
We might be open to selling him but not until we can first secure a few offspring out of this amazing boy!
