Gwens   

Dark Fawn, 839092, Full Peruvian

Gwens is a sweetheart! She came to Stone Bridge as a weanling and we've watched her grow into a beautiful young lady! Her fiber is super fine and a handspinner's dream. Her dark fawn fiber has beautiful low amplitude crimp. Her spring 2006 cria, Painted Warrior, was simply stunning, having great fiber, density, coverage and conformation. Her 2007 cria, Emeline, has beautiful fawn fiber just like her mom, but with a higher amplitude crimp and more defined bundling of fiber. Her 2008 cria, Raina, is equally gorgeous with the same fawn coloring and lots of thick curly ringlets right down to her toes. Gwens appears to be able to pass on her gorgeous fawn colored fiber to all her cria!

Storm has incredible crimp and coverage from his topknot to his toes, with very little medullation. He also has wonderful density and a staple length of over 6" when in full fleece. We shear over 12 lbs. of fiber from him annually. To top all that he's got excellent conformation and a good bite. He has done very well in the show ring and his cria are just spectacular! Storm is a herdsire to consider for your maidens since he is usually very successful with getting them bred and his medium size will ensure that the maidens' first cria will not be so large that it will cause tearing. A wise choice indeed!
