September 1, 2021 Neversummer's US Steel is for sale and is now available. We have kept back several of his offspring and it's now time for him to focus on another herd. SERIOUS INQUIRES ONLY! Gold Country Gathering 2019 Silver Spice, a Neversummer's US Steel daughter wins both Judge's Choice and Spirit of the Industry Award! Neversummer’s US Steel! 2018, 2017 and 2016 Herdsire of the Year! As of January 2018 Neversummer's US Steel will be permanently residing full time at Starshire Ranch! Love, love, love this guy, his stats, his offspring... Love everything about him! Steel is so very fine! He has also inherited his sire's trademark silky handle. As he matured, Steel's uniformity and retained fineness brought him to the very top of his extremely competitive classes in the ring. The judges consistently commented on his extreme fineness and soft handle and now his histogram numbers fully support this. Steel is a handsome male with an excellent breeding background and has matured into an elite macho, who has produced champion offspring of his own! Steel's dam, Crescent Moon's Starbright is a lovely Rayo Del Sol daughter who was a blue ribbon winner and a reserve champion in the ring herself. She was a gentle female and proved to be a topnotch breeder and mother. At 6 yrs of age, Starbright's fleece was still 21 microns. Steel continued his show career just months before his 3rd birthday at the 2012 Futurity placing 1st in a competitive class under judge Peter Kennedy. At the 2012 GWAS he was 1st and Reserve Color and the oldest male in his class at 34.7 months and Judge Jude Anderson commented on his fineness, uniformity of color and beautiful fleece character that is still being retained at his age. This is truly remarkable for a male just shy of 36 months to be so competitive in a class of 48 grey males! The color champion was rose grey, so Steel was the best silver grey male at this show! Although winning and ribbons are fun and good, but the true test of a great herdsire is in his offspring. Once more Steel continues to shine both in the brightness, fineness and soft silky handle of his offspring's fleece as well as the beautiful look he stamps on each offspring!

Every once in a while you find a “magic” sire x dam cross that consistently gives you outstanding results. Such is the case with the pairing that produced Silver Legacy. He is the 5th of 6 excellent cria out of this cross, 4 of whom we are retaining which is the only reason we are willing to let him go. His full siblings included 8X champion Silver Sensation (dam of A Paca Fun’s Ridiculous) 5 X Champion Aurora (another of our stellar production dams), and champion male I Am Legend who we have retained as a herdsire. Silver Legacy is a typey full patterned tuxedo silver gray that checks off every box in the breeder’s want list. He is upright and correct, with good coverage and bone. His fleece is uniform silver gray (no spots) with good fineness, and has 3-dimentional crimp and density. Combining the Rincon Cloud and Silver Legend lines, Silver Legacy comes from powerful genetics, but is conveniently unrelated to many of the other top gray lines in the country. This makes him a good pick for breeders looking to add their first gray male, or established programs looking to diversify their genetics. Silver Legacy has been a main member of our show string and has done well in shows, but we suspect the best is yet to come, as historically his line really blossoms starting at age 2. We look forward to seeing what this boy can do both continuing in the show ring and as he starts his breeding career.
