SNOWMASS
ARCTIC FROST ("Little Guns")
There are precious few
rose grey males with Drambuie lines in North America. This young man is
showing a very fine, very uniform, beautifully defined high frequency
crimp. It is bright with very long staple length and at 3 1/2 months
organizing into bundles. It really is amazing to see the evolution of
his tui fleece as his secondary follicles emerge (see pix at right). We
think that he is going to be a good one. We're thrilled that this
breeding has been repeated for 2008.
We have him warming up in the "juvie bullpen" as a
complimentary breeder to Guns n Roses. He is "spotless" in his
blanket and his fiber is the typical very high frequency
"vicuna" type described by Julie Skinner in her "Making
of Champions, part 2". It is very lustrous and even finer than the
17 micron that Guns n Roses showed at the same age. The New Years photo,
2008 shows fis incredible length at just 6 months.His color is solid
rose grey.
He'll be practising his moves until show season in spring!
