Avalon's Amber Rose was selected by Judge Charlene Friedman as the 2006 AOBA NATIONAL SHOW BROWN FEMALE COLOR CHAMPION, making Amber a 7X Color Champion!

Take a look at his 2005 histograms...AFD = 14.7 on the first sample and 14.4 AFD on the second! The 2007 histogram from his 3rd shearing still shows a fine fleece at 18.5 microns.
Not surprisingly, we had planned to retain partial ownership of Andiamo to use these incredible soft, fine fiber genes in our breeding program. However, we think this special young male has som
This pretty female has developed into something special! Her gorgeous white fiber is bright, VERY FINE and soft, with a high frequency crimp style and LONG staple length! She carries the dark color genetics of her dam and fine fiber genetics through the Hemingway line from which her sire comes.
