Great uniformity across the blanket. Bundles are well-defined. Best use is worsted-spun yarn next to the skin.

Wonderful uniformity of micron across the blanket no matter where samples pulled. Primaries are few and crimpy too!

Semper's Multiple-Year Sort Report
We just had Semper's yearling, 2-year old and 7-year old fleece
evaluated by Certified Fiber Sorter Pam Harwood and we
couldn't be more pleased with her findings...
In a nutshell, his 7 year old fleece is just as nice (and even
more uniform) than his younger fleeces! He has consist
micron results across his blanket - his secondaries graded a 1
and 2 with very few primaries and those that did exist were
crimpy too! His primaries graded 2's and 3's - quite impressive.
Drive-by Breeding special - buy 4 breedings and get the 5th
FREE! Best part is you can combine breedings with other farms

been reduced from $3K to $2K - super deal! Contact us about
our overnight accommodations for you and your dams.
Here are some fiber stats for Semper and some of his offspring...
Semper has done a great job with both colored and white offspring and tends to throw the color of the
dam. He has even pulled out some nice color from white dams with color in their background - Montezuma
is a great example. His dam is white (with color in her background); he is a brown reserve champion.
Semper is also doing a great job passing down his fleece uniformity - all of his crias have CV's below 20.
