AI Rams Being Used at WillowGarden

Someone asked me which UK rams I would be using for AI in a few weeks. Here they are. I have 17 straws from Todhill Hornblower. He is a four year old black ram with almost no white fibres. He is QR. I have also attached his histogram, but in case you can't read it ... his micron is 27.8, with an SD of 5.3.

The other one is Todhill Glava, a moorit ram that might be carrying the 'modifier'. I have 25 straws from this guy. At the age of six, his white fibres are minimal. He is RR. His micron is 25.9, with an SD of 5.7.
I'm looking forward to seeing what these guys can add to my flock. The AI date is set for 1 PM on November 9th. I am slightly nervous ... but also very excited.
