This guy is programmed for pre-potency! Color coat testing = Ee AA, and…of the few progeny on the ground, he is fulfilling exactly what we thought he would we can’t wait to get more of his progeny on the ground! Rigel won his 6th Championship at the 2023 AOA National IFA Fleece Show (measured AFD 20.1 micron) as Dark Color Champion at 4-years old! We know that his sire, CCNF Leviathan, has stamped out tons of champions. His dam, Stillmeadow Farm Bella’s Dream, has produced only champions thus fa ...

Cria has arrived!

Details
Bell's latest cria arrived on 11/4/23, and first impressions are that he is quite amazing! He arrived just a wee bit early, but he is doing quite well. DEFINITELY going to repeat this breeding to Rigel in the Spring. We were hoping for a female, but at least we did get a dark fawn male that looks pretty darn promising!

Bells' 2022 cria arrived on 10/2/22 and he's gorgeous!! Based on the outcome, we decided to rebreed Bells to Ganymede for an encore. Her cria, Iapitus, has an extremely dense and curly fleece with those little rolls down the back of his neck! And he has great bone... well, doggonit, someone had different plans. Just after Ganymede left for his winter home in Texas, Bell’s decided she needed to breed again. The lucky boy is Rigel! Rigel should be able to pull color out of Bells as she has plenty of it in her background. We’re looking forward to seeing the outcome!

We’re absolutely smitten with this girl. As her name suggests, she is a Snowmass Loro Piana daughter, and she is out of a Snowmass Defiance daughter. Then add a little Snowmass Best Man and a little Snowmass Sub-Zero! That’s what this girl’s got! Incredible genetics there!

Bells of Piana delivered a beautiful fawn female cria out of Snowmass Rock Solid on July 17, 2021! Bells has plenty of milk and she is an excellent mama.

Bells is the offspring of a phenomenal herdsire, Snowmass Loro Piana, who is in the top 1% EPD's for AFD & SF, and top 10% for SDAFD. Loro Piana was the best producer of fineness at Snowmass, and it is a lasting fineness – he had a 16 micron fleece at age five.
