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 !!!!

Pecuna's Princess is quite royal indeed! She has a presence of a princess and we are excited to see what she throws for us! With fiber coverage from her head to her toes, this princess has it all! A beautiful color and her yarn made for some gorgeous scarves! Her 2017 cria died shortly after birth (necropsy didn't show anything abnormal). So, we re-bred her to Ephraim and she produced a beautiful girl, Penelope! We re-bred her again to King Hezekiah and she is due Fall 2019! 2018 Histogram: AFD: 21.4 SD: 5.6 CV: 26.2 %>30: 6.5 2017 Histogram: AFD: 19.9 SD: 5.2 CV: 25.9 %>30: 3.4 08/18/2016 Histogram: AFD: 20.8 SD: 5.3 CV: 25.5 %>30: 5.2

We acquired Encore in Spring 2019. We have been using him as a herdsire for several of our females. Encore has SUCH a presence and is an excellent breeder...getting the job done in 10 minutes! He's got a nice, short face with a beautiful staple and is such a beautiful color!
