Our herd is known for its exceptional fleece. So when we were choosing our newest herdsire, although we knew we wanted full Accoyo color, we were not willing to deviate from our high expectations for fineness, density, brightness, handle & crimp. When we found Cuba, we were impressed with everything about him, especially his 16.4 micron! The handle of his fleece is extraordinary, & to top it off, he is one of the darkest full Accoyos around. We were delighted when Rainy offered half ownership of him & jumped at the chance to get a part of this select, beautiful male.
Cuba's genetics are rare & known for producing elite offspring. His sire, Accoyo Express, is 1 of only 5 offspring (and the only male) born to Accoyo Albus before he was exported to England where he continues to win get-of-sire. Express's cria have won more than 70 championships! Cuba's dam, MFI Accoyo Tequilla Sunrise is the product of Accoyo Suzana, a white import owned by Magical Farms & the recently deceased Accoyo icon, Leon. Cuba's maternal siblings include Cuervo Gold who stands stud at Magical Farms & La Viva Loca, the highest selling female at the 2007 Futurity.
Cuba has been given ribbons by some of the most respected judges in the country including Amanda VandenBosch, Wade Gease, Charlene Friedman, Jude Anderson and Tim LaVan. He competed in difficult classes & placed above some big, well-known farms. His conformation & coverage are excellent.
