What I notice when I walk into the Herdsire pasture is Marengo's strong stature, solid bone and upright stance. Who is that stunning grey out there-- Marengo! He has extensive fiber coverage from his typey head to his toes! His fiber is crimpy, fine, dense and bright. Histogram: afd=18.2m, sd=3.9m, cv=21.7%, >30=1.2% His Dam Alegre has been an excellent grey producer including Barranquilla, Shakira and Rosalinda! Take a look at the photo of his fleece and you will see what a wonderful specimen Marengo is! We love that we found Grey in a fine fleece, excellent head, solid bone and high frequency crimp! Marengo has cria that hit the ground in 2015! We are excited to share this excellent male with you! So far, every cria out of Marengo is silver or rose grey.
