Huacaya, Male, Proven | True Black
Sirius is a simply gorgeous true black boy . He is very fine with fleece the Mike Saffley just couldn't stop touching. He has density and crimp as well as excellent conformation. He is perfectly square and has a good bite . He has a very fine Snowmass mom and Champion Amazon dad. Geeve's Louise was a high selling Snowmass girl, who came with two breedings to famous Snowmass studs, he is the best of all her offspring so far. He is as good as he looks.Watch for him in the show ring. Sirius does it again !!! Second only to his brother Armstrong at the Lloydminster show. Sirius has been tested for color genetics and he has the rare and valuable EEaa genotype , meaning he is a non dilute black. He can be bred confidently to any fawn or even white that covers black and will have a 50% or more chance of producing black. He can be bred to any white or fawn that doesnt cover black and will produce a fawn that covers black . This is the way to progress to have a black with the fibre qualities of a white or quality fawn . I retain his son Ambrose for my breeding program who is also EEaa and have now had a really awesome black out of a very nice fawn . Histogram ,2012 AFD 20 SD 5.7 %> 30 7 He is also in the top 25% for staple length .
