Snowmass Occult is a three-time Color Champion herdsire bringing elite genetics, exceptional phenotype, and top-tier fiber traits to our breeding program. With top 15% EPDs in fineness and curvature, Occult consistently elevates the quality of every pairing.

Pedigree
Occult is the offspring of Snowmass Enchanted and Snowmass Loves Grace, backed by an impressive lineup of influential Snowmass genetics including Snowmass Matrix, Snowmass Quechua, Snowmass Accoyocusani, Snowmass Nova, and Snowmass Conopa XXX. This pedigree represents some of the most proven and respected lines in the industry.

Phenotype
Occult offers strong, balanced conformation with a bold, “showy” head and full facial coverage complemented by small, refined ears and nose. His fleece is dense with excellent crimp structure, and his EPD rankings reflect his ability to consistently pass on fineness and curvature. His offspring clearly demonstrate his influence—carrying forward his conformation, head style, and improved crimp across a variety of dams.

Color Genetics

Personality
Occult has a great temperament—an ideal mix of sweet and confident. He is easy to handle, attentive, and calm, yet eager and efficient when breeding.
