We selected and purchased Best in Show when he was 6 weeks old to be the future of our breeding program. We believe that he is truly exceptional and one of the best animals in the U.S. today.
BIS's sire, Jericho, is the young gun male at the heart of Magical Farm's breeding program. Best in Show is among Jericho's first crop of exceptional crias. Jericho is the product of Dakotia (Bueno line) and Jean (Don Julio line). Jericho's crias have done outstandingly well in the show ring to date.
BIS's mother, Briseis, is a lovely fawn daughter of Accoyo Royal Fawn. Her dam Bete is also an outstanding female. Briseis and Bete are two of Libby Forstner's personal foundation females.
This fusion of Royal Fawn and Bueno lines is just about as good as it gets.
Kaliope is as sweet as can be. She sports fine fiber with a soft handle. With a pedigree that includes Jericho, Bueno, Dakotia, Don Julio, and PPPeruvian Mr President, she has potential to do great things for your breeding program. She is registry eligible. Her reduced price is due to the fact that there has been a registration snafu. We could not get a match on her dna with either sire or dam. If you want to persue this we will provide blood cards for her and her dam to resubmit as well as ideas for sire. Not interested in pursuing registration? She will make an excellent pet/fiber/companion animal. She is kind and gentle, very easy to work with.
