Josef produces Champions! His offspring are stunning with super fine micron, high gloss luster and beautifully dense lock structure. He is the ultimate prepotent stud that passes his superior traits to his offspring. Josef won his first Get of Sire class in 2018 as a five-year-old stud. Josef is the son of multi-champion Pucara's Kahuna and Big Timber's award-winning dam, KBTA's Kerolyn. His genetics are packed with the best suri bloodlines...Kahuna, Armani, Miquel, Uribe. Josef's offspring have proven his ability to pass through these awesome genetics. Josef's fine fleece is dense with incredible staple length. His first fleece AFD was a superfine 17.1 micron with an SD of 3.3 and is ranked in the top EPDS in the country. His second-year fleece was a close 19 micron with a continued SD of 3.3. As noted in his biopsy report below, at 45 months, his AFD is a very fine 21 micron. One of Josef's fleece strengths is his staple length. At over 4 years, his staple length is over 6.5 inches annual growth. His staple length along with his above average density contributes to his superior annual fleece weight of over 11 lbs., putting him in the top 1% for FW in the most recent EPDs. In 2018, Josef won Reserve Invited Champion as a 4.5-year-old competing against much younger animals. In 2017, Josef, as a 3.5-year-old male, was awarded Invited Color Champion and First Place at the 2017 AOA National Halter Show for white Suri male and Color Champion and First Place at the competitive 2017 CABA Classic Show. In 2016 as a mature male, he was awarded Color Champion and First Place at the 2016 Futurity Halter Show and First Place at the 2016 AOA Nationals Show. He also won First Place and Color Champion at the 2016 CABA show in both the halter and fleece shows. Josef was evaluated in 2017 in the SHIP (Suri Herd Improvement Program) by Cheryl Gehly. He received a perfect 5 score in all conformation categories. For fleece characteristics, he scored perfect 5's for lock structure, uniformity of color and fleece phenotype. He scored 4.5's for density and handle. He scored 4's in the areas of luster (luster score of 18), fineness (20 micron) and uniformity of micron. Josef is truly the whole package! At 11 years old, Josef has outstanding rankings of Top 5% in the 2024 EPDs that confirm his genetic prepotence. Dr. Norm Evans conducted a skin biopsy analysis in 2017 on Josef at 45 months old. His true density is 53.5 follicles SQ MM of skin and 25 typical fiber clusters show an average S/P of 9.8 to 1. Tested 100 secondary fibers average of 20.1 microns while 50 primary fibers average 29.4 microns for a variation of 9.3 microns. Josef’s AFD on July 8, 2017, at 45 months of age figures 21.03 microns. Excellent results for a mature male.

Description

Armani's Aurora is from top producing genetic lines on both her sire and dam side. Her genetics include Uribe, Eleuteria, Macgyver, Miquel and Calamity Jane. Her sire, Accoyo Armani, a two time champion, has produced many champion offspring and is known for his fineness and uniformity of micron. Aurora is extremely fine with uniform micron throughout her blanket. As a young female, she won first place at the 2010 PNAA show in an extremely competitive white class. At five years of age, Aurora's 2014 histogram scores are AFD: 23, SD: 3.8, CV:16.3; 3.4% >30 microns. Aurora is retaining her fineness and consistency extremely well as she grows older (her 2011 AFD was also 23 micron). Aurora has an outstanding suri classification score of 4.63. Her highlights are her fiber which scored highly on lock, fineness and handle. The classification scores for AURORA shows perfect 5's for FINENESS, LUSTER, UNIFORMITY OF MICRON and high 4.5s for HAND and LOCK structure. 4.5s for correct conformation ... substance, legs and movement. Aurora is highly ranked in the 2018 EPD trait characteristics: AFD Top 4% SF Top 5% %F>30 Top 2% %M Top 1% Dr. Norm Evans conducted a biopsy on Aurora in 2017 as an 8 year old. His report: " Her density measure 53.75 follicles SQMM. Her S/P ratio is 12.6 to 1. She grades a level 4 of 4 gland presence and less than 20% of her secondary fibers show a degree of medullation. These traits are often associated with above average luster as well as excellent handle. Her secondary fibers averaged 19.8 microns while her primaries averaged 27.4 microns for a spread of only 7.6 microns. Aurora's AFD at 8 years of age figures 20.39 microns. Her strong points are above average density, S/P ratio, gland presence, low percentage of secondary medullation and how she had retained her fineness at 8 years of age." Aurora had a stunning white male cria in August 2018 sired by our Kahuna's Josef. This genetic pairing was awesome! This special pricing includes Aurora's Josef cria by side and includes a breeding to any of our herdsires. THREE IN ONE PACKAGE!!!
