What can we say? Banners, Blue ribbons, amazing bloodlines (have you looked at his ARI?), Champion offspring. Why are you NOT breeding to this amazing specimen of everything you can ask for in a herdsire? Leonidus' Layla took a 2nd place in the dark brown juvenile halter show and a 1st place in the Small Breeders Show at MAPACA 2017, and a 1st place in the 2017 PAOBA Breeders Showcase. She's the pretty brown one with the blue ribbon -- she is lovely, and if you choose to breed to Leo, yours can be too! Leo consistently stamps his progeny with his phenotype, density, and fineness. He is maintaining phenomenal density well into his breeding years! Leo's previous owner did not do a histogram, but we can tell you his offspring are winning ribbons of their own, and all who have been tested have fiber under 20 microns. If you'd like histograms from some of his crias, just ask and we'll happily forward them to you. Check out the pictures of Leo crias at the bottom of the photo column. None prettier! And Leo's biopsy (May, 2014) reports are in! Density: 58.6 mm; Secondary:Primary fiber ratio: 9.8:1; In-skin mean primary fiber diameter: 24.8 microns SD 3.2 microns range 19.9 to 31.5 microns; secondary fiber diameter: 19.8 microns SD 2.8 microns range 14.2 to 19.8 microns. Everything we thought we knew about this male is TRUE! Discount breedings are available for champion females, multiple breedings, and breedings to Snowmass Quechua descendants. Give us a call! You know you want to breed to him -- what are you waiting for? 2018 EPDs are available by clicking on the EPD link above right. Besides being top 1% for %M, he's top 5% for AFD and %F>30, and top 10% for SDAFD, SF (spin fineness), and MC (mean curvature). He's still amazing and holding his own after all these years! We are so proud!!

Her mom's name, Esperanza, means "hope," and Faith is keeping it going! With Royal Fawn in her dam's lineage, and everyone else in her sire's side, we have lots of faith in this little girl! And that faith is not misplaced! Here are the judges' comments from the 2015 VAOBA and the 2016 CABO fleece shows: Though she didn't place in the VAOBA show, Judge Wini Labreque gave her a score of 18/20 for fineness and handle, 8/10 for brightness, 6/7 for length and 4.5/5 for color. Must have been a tough class! But she took 2nd at CABO with a total score of 73! Judge Kathy Klay gave her 18.5 on fineness and handle, 7.5/8 on micron uniformity, 6.5/7 for uniformity in length, and 5/5 in uniformity of color. Her comment: "Awesome fineness and handle."
