I've had a few people express interest in white rams with UK genetics, so I thought I'd tell you all what I have. There are 6 white rams, that, so far, appear to be outstanding.
All are sired by Whistle Stop Lerwick, the F1 Drum Jings white ram that I leased from Orysia Dawydiak, in Prince Edward Island.
Willow Garden Grenadier and WillowGarden Gavenstein are out of Great Plains Alix. Alix's sire, Great Plains Blair is a 25% UK (Timothy & Greyling), grey ram. Her dam is Great Plains Cherry, a double F2 (Timothy & Greyling) ewe. These lambs are 43.75% UK.
WillowGarden Braeburn is out of Neir Lakes Voe, an F2 Drum Jings white ewe. He would be 37.5% UK.
WillowGarden Courtland is out of Great Plains Sara, a Heatheram Lightning (white) and Great Plains Agnas (white) ewe.
This one is WillowGarden Crispin. He is out of Great Plains Ginney, a smaller black ewe (quad) out of Campaign Timothy (black) and Great Plains Blue Bummer (a shaela triplet ewe).
The last one is WillowGarden Harcourt, out of Great Plains Wren, an F1 Shirehill Minder (fawn katmoget) and Great Plains Emma, a musket ewe. This ram could be Awt/Ab, which could mean that all of his lambs would be white or katmoget. I'll try for a picture of him later. He is a BIG boy ... :-)
