Sandstorm was a true champion that judges recognized with 10 blue ribbons including a "Best In Show" title, as well as many other awards. His conformation was flawless and he had a regal presence. He was not a tall male, but was exceptionally muscularly built. Sandstorm had a "typey" head and a well aligned bite. His amazingly dense golden fawn fleece boasted a low amplitude, high frequency crimp with good staple length and a superbly soft handle. At age 3 1/2 the micron count for Sandstorm's fleece was 23.3. The shearing weight of his blanket often exceeded six pounds. Sandstorm easily passed many of his desirable traits to his offspring. He was a truly spectacular full Peruvian stud who fathered 18 cria which span the color spectrum from light to dark. His EPD is still rated in the top 25%.

Bonanza was a stand out, not only as a blue ribbon winner, but also as a tri-color pinto. She had great conformation and a very sweet personality. Bonanza was a great mom to nine cria and a surrogate grandma for each new arrival in the herd. Eight of her cria were girls. Similarly, her father, Peruvian Seeds of Gold, was an impressive herdsire. Bonanza's award winning dense black, grey and white fleece was terrific in textiles. Many of her cria also won numerous awards in halter and fleece shows. She lived out all of her 20+ years in New Mexico. Bonanza was a true legacy.
