When a breeding hits right it is AWESOME!!! This is exactly what we knew happened when Graycyn Rose of Breezy Meadows was born. We bred our 6th generation grey and ultra fine female to one of the most elite herdsires in the United States, SA Peruvian Valente, who passes dense, bright and high frequency crimp to his offspring.
Graycyn carries some hard hitting names in her lineage make up. Her sire, SA Peruvian Valente is a stud worthy of being a king with exquisite fiber characteristics like fineness, soft handle, brightness, bold and high frequency crimp that pops once you finally get his fleece spread apart. His background includes PPPeruvian Royal Fawn (Elite Full Accoyo), Royal Peruvian Apollo and Peruvian Veloura Gold. The combination of Apollo and Veloura have produced many champion offspring, and Valente is no exception, making him one of Stachowski’s most popular herdsires as well as one of the judges favorites!
Graycyn’s dam is our very own SA Jewell’s Palladia who has many highly sought after qualities we all seek out in a production dam. She is 6 generations deep of grey making ancestory. She is also armed with major names on her sire side, Snowmass Nova’s Eclipse. He is a bay black male out of two black exceptionally elite parents and has produced a majority of female offspring, ALL of who are either black or grey!!! Eclipse’s dam was hand selected by Snowmass at import. She sparkles with extreme fineness in true black carrying a 21.6 micron at 2 years old. Eclipse’s sire is Snowmass Nova – he is part of the “Snowmass Elite Line” and carried an average micron diameter of 16.5 at 2 years old in bay black! He is a true gem and proves it by his awards including AOBA National Color Champion as well as AAA Futurity Color Champion. Nova’s sire is the one of a kind Snowmass Peruvian Casanova – a medium rose grey full Peruvian who is not only out of two white parents, but has some of the best known and well respected genetics. Casanova not only carried an 18.3 micron at 3 years old, but also won AOBA National Color Champion as well as AAA Futurity Herdsire of the year!
Graycyn is a stylish gal who takes the cake when it comes to the cute factor with Cleopatra flirty eyes. She is an averaged sized girl with superb conformation, straight lines, flawless bite and great typiness. Her fleece is everything you would dream – high frequency, fine, dense and bright.
We searched high and low for the perfect match for Graycyn’s first breeding and finally decided on PLF Michelangelo’s Intrigue d’Peru. Intrigue is a full Peruvian, ½ Accoyo, El Nino’s Michelangelo son, who exemplifies and encompasses all that is Michelangelo but in a modern rose grey - he has his amazing look, extreme density, fineness, high frequency crimp, blinding brightness, heavy bone, spot on conformation.
Gracie had her first cria in October and was very happy with the results of her breeding to Intrique. Coco has beautiful fiber... We we
