Co-owned with Britt and Patty at Hasselbring Harmony Ranch Kekoa is the product of a lot of planning and sourcing of genetics we admire. We were stoked when he has born and he is a fabulous breeder for us. His production has been wonderful. Consistent, fine, dense and with that "Pucara" look we have striven to achieve and maintain. How often is it that your eye is taken by a stud male, you charge in to look at the fleece and damn it either the fineness or the density is below the quality of the other trait! They are what is known as antagonistic traits. This is where Kekoa stands apart. He exhibits incredible luster as a result of the fineneess, the uniformity of micron and the accentuated density. It is truly a luscious fleece. He is the result of bringing together prepotent suri lines that have dominated in the US. It includes, Stud males: Kahuna, Uribe, Ganador, Bruxo, Ramilo, Rockstar! Stud females: Mandalay, Halona Happy Fortune, Silkworm, Gracie, Augustina, Maria. Kekoa got a big slice of the girls in our ET program in 2017. Not something we would normally do without seeing cria...BUT...there is NO weakness in his pedigree, none! And it is a variation we have tried to achieve because bringing the Rockstar daughter who is the dam, Young Alberta, to breed with Kahuna's Tikanui introduced Rockstar to our stud female PureSuri Mandalay which was an equation never done before. Mandalay has been producing stud quality males no matter who she We wanted a new line somewhat connected to our best but removed enough so we could bring it back to the Kahuna line at a later date. Young Alberta had a successful show career but more than anything it was her extreme luster and accentuated locking which qualified our purchase of her. Now her sire, Pucara PurSuri Kahuna's Tikanui now owned by the Hasselbrings has been a prolific force lately in the show ring winning get awards and Futurity Herdsire of the Year awards. Kekoa has more than pleased us with a run of cria some which have taken our breath away! Is it any wonder?
