WillowGarden David Niven



I REALLY like this ram lamb and will be keeping him over for evaluation and to test him in his second fleece. At the moment, he is a 'keeper'.


He is out of FirthofFifth Lassig (Wintertime Blues X a Forrest daughter) and WillowGarden Opal (WillowGarden Linyanti - F1 Todhill Hornblower - X V Creek Hummer - a pedigree filled with many UK sires)

Lassig's first micron results were - AFD 23.6 ... SD 5.5 ... CV 23.3.

Opal's numbers are - AFD 25.3 ... SD 5.3 ... CV 20.8.

This dude was born black, but is likely modified and hopefully will end up the same lovely emsket colour of his sire.

That's an extremely unusual color! It will be interesting to see his mature fleece. Great numbers on the parents, he's awesome.
