Ninni's sire, half-Peruvian son of the great black and grey producing line, The Silversmith, Silver Dollar has crimp, luster and a fine, fine handle to his low micron fleece. He has produced many rose and silver greys when bred to grey with fine fleeces (microns of 17-19) as well as award winning black cria. He adds density, luster, crimp and handle to his cria and his coverage, which is superb. Ninni is a sweet girl, excellent mom who produces stunning looking cria. Ninni's first cria, MB Adelina, carries an extremely dense and soft handling fleece,this rose grey girl is proof of what Ninni can do. Sweet disposition, excellent conformation with good coverage. Would be an excellent addition to your herd. Full color pedigree. Ninni's 2015 cria, sired by .38 Special is a stunning MSG Tuxedo male with 5 banners,.

Description

2023 brings Mercury! CSAF .38’s Mercury Rising is a multi-banner winning, medium silver grey male out of you know who - some fella by the name of .38 Special! So basically, his genetics could have foretold his show ring success. Mercury stands upright, and has a strong boned, well balanced frame. His blanket is consistent in color, density, and handle, while also showing a high amplitude crimp architecture. And to top it all off, he has excellent staple length and very solid overall coverage. He produces a beautiful fleece with excellent commercial value for color consistency and volume. Aside from his Sire's side, his Dam's genetic line is equally fantastic and deep in color too. He's gotten better and better over time, and we are very pleased with this genetic crossing. He possesses all the qualities of an outstanding herdsire, including a gentle temperament. Mercury's offspring have been coming for awhile now, and they have exhibited amazing crimp architecture, density, conformation and uniformity of color. Super excited for what he brings to our program!
