16.7 AFD-3rd Shearing! / Elite Snowmass

Rockford Arctic Rose

And they did it again!!! Buttery fleece shining with luster. Density. Straight confirmation. Easy-going and inquisitive. Incredible genetics.

These words describe Rose to a T. Packed jam full of the amazing quality genetics of Hemingway, Snowmaster, Snowmass Incaaccoyo Star & Acero Marka's Rockamundo, plus her splendid density & fineness, Rose is the perfect pick to add these rare genetics to your herd.

Her dam, Hemingway's Naomi shows incredible fineness: Though her first 2 shearings (when she was being boarded) weren't the most impressive (AFD of 20 and 21.4, respectively), look what it has been ever since!: 3rd year: 18.7; 5th year: 18.2; 6th year: 19.5; and 7th year: 18.7!!!!

Her sire-the award-winning Snowmass Snow Legend had an AFD of whopping 14.4 (year 1); 18.8 (year 3); 20.7 (year 5); & 21.6 (year 8).
Her siblings show the same:
Love: 17.7 (year 1); 19.8 (year 2); 18.4 (year 3)
Daisy: 1 year: 16.9; 2nd year: 16.3; 3rd year: 16.5
Reflection: 18.3 (year 1); 17.5 (year 2)

We are so excited about what her breeding to Grazing Hills Lexington (Accoyo America Diomedes x Grazing Hills Lydia) produced!! A gorgeous brown son-Legacy! Lexington brings an incredible lineage with him, including some of the most notable imports (Hemi-Accoyo Nautilus, Caligula, Cimarron Gold Legend --out of Mountain Gold x Snowmass Passion Flower--, Grazing Hills Knightly --out of Ppperuvian Cahuide and Midnight Express, to name a few) and his fleece definitely shows it!! (2nd Shearing: 17.0, 2.7, 15.9, 0.6 and 3rd Shearing: 18.7, 3.6, 19.3, 1.0)
