Sire: Snow Diamond Chateau-Cerise ARI#
32731651 White Snow Diamond Chateau Cerise is a Herd Sire who genetic picture is just what we utilize in our breeding. This boy will give more diversity to our already diverse genetics here at Colusa Riverside. Chateau is a package of genetics that include Matrix, Quechua, Accoyo Elite, and Legacy with a beginning lineage touch of Hemingway.
Chateau is as dense as they can come. He is in the 1% for fleece weight. He is fine and uniform in his fineness. Take a look at his EPD genetic picture and what he can produce in his offspring. He definitely has excellent EPDs across all fiber trait values. At age 10 years he is carrying a SL greater than 90 mm, and a CV of 15. We chose him because his genetics will improve every fiber trait in his offspring, in every single trait. in 2023 his fiber yield was 11 pounds. He will also improve density and fleece weight significantly. Take a look at his 2022 histogram and show record.
We recently had his offspring at the California Classic and Gold County Gathering, duel shows. They all placed particularly well in every showing. In walking fleece white and light his offspring got repeated positive comments from Judge Amanda regarding their long staple, beautiful handle and brightness.
Chateau's bone mass is extensive. Most importantly he has a very gentle demeanor. For anyone wanting to breed he is a genetic steal at $1000. Give us a call or an email, we would love to hear from you. We have multiple dams pregnant by Chateau.
Dam: Snow Diamond Sage ARI#
35163664 White CHECK OUT SAGE'S EPD PROFILE, some of the best for a reasonable price. We have several of her daughters so she is on the sales market. Sage is a Snowmass Defiance daughter. She comes from exceptional breed stock. We originally went to purchase her sister whose histogram and EPDs are exemplary, after seeing her we bought Sage without a histogram or EPD knowing what her sister had and the lineage of Sage. We were not disappointed. The purchase of Sage and Breeze from Snow Diamond was to integrate improvement in our herds AFDSD. Our goal is to have all animals below 4.0 and the higher goal of at or around 3.0. Both of these girls are in the 1% trait value for AFDSD.
Sage's fleece character traits are superior. She has a beautiful fine fleece with plenty of luster and soft handle. It is quite difficult to find any primary fibers and when you do they are mistaken for secondary fibers they are so fine. She is very dense, with an AFD of 21 micron at age 4, but an SD of 2.8. That is amazing uniformity.
Sage has excellent substance of bone and her phenotype shows good conformation. Take a look at her EPD profile. She is being bred to Chateau Cerise to improve her offspring staple length. One percent in SD is truly one EPD that is difficult to come by and even more difficult to breed for, so we are more than pleased with this young foundation dam. She will add some very desirable genetics potential into our herd in one breeding with this pairing.
Description
Spit Fire was born at 9 pounds, and who I thought was not going to make it. She fought hard for a few weeks, and she is now a thriving beautiful cria. Spit fire is out of our stud Chateau Cerise. I think this is his first female cria so we look forward to seeing the offspring he produces. As of now she is phenotypically perfect and has a beautiful cria fleece. According to the AOA Offspring Estimator she will have exceptional EPDs. Both Sire and Dam EPDs are very well match to insure cria is improved in all traits and not diminished in any of the traits.
