When you fall in love with a certain breeding program, appreciating their achievement in brightness (in grey color) you can hardly resist the temptation to add to your herd. We had recently sold a few of our males and had a little bit of seller's remorse, when we saw a post regarding some of Granite Bay beauties being available. Before other life circumstances could delay, we acquired him, sight-unseen. Well, we did have fleece shots and knew the reputation of care and lineage so we weren't worried one bit about what would be on the end of the lead when we received him. We couldn't wait to meet him at the show. One of our favorite esteemed judges was the fleece judge and she took a sample around to point out the crimp in his guard hair for others surrounding to witness the softness of hand. Blue's score card was icing on the cake. He received a 2nd of 11 in his class going up against some real contenders including some of his own prior herd-mates. His sire is A Paca Fun's SilverLegacy who won numerous first places from A Paca Funs successful grey program and his dam is Granite Bay's Blue XX who received a 1st place at ABR fleece show 2020. She sired the gorgeous true black Champion Granite Bay Jet Blue XX. Blue grew up real quick - in fact we suspect that may have been why he didn't rank as well in the halter show the following spring. Now he has grown to a nice stature, considerably well balanced and proportioned. Gold Country show the judge awarded him a 2nd place with comments big size for his age and a dense fleece. His walking fleece score was 8 of 10 brightness 3.5 of 5 density, 8 of 10 uniformity of micron and 16 of 20 fineness. We are extremely pleased. Blue's histogram came in as 20.2 micron. Considering we are striving to add brightness and density to our predominately grey herd, we are excited to see how his first offspring progress. They were all sturdy and up and nursing in no time, just like you like them. Two of the grey boys born have extraordinary looking heads at just a few months of age! Let us know if you would like any more information on Granite Bay's Blue Silver. We expect a bright future in the offspring to come!

This girl came out looked so dark grey you didn't initially notice her black front in a bolero jacket type pattern with her medium to silver grey body until she was dry. She looked so sleek & elegant. We couldn't quite settle on a name. That black Bolero jacket pattern helped us decide on the name "Bolero Giacca" Italian for bolero jacket. "Gia" for short, which the name means God is gracious. She was a spunky and fun little one that loved to run. As an adult she looks like she gives you "the eye" which is almost comical. Her dam, Dancing Elk's Isabella is one of our favorites, beautiful and full of personality and her sire, 4-Sight's Crawford, simply Ahhmazing fine, silver grey fleece. Gia was on our keeper list before she entered motherhood but has solidified her place in the herd. She gave birth to a spectacular female by the brawny, dense fleeced, TWT Hawkeye Dizzy Gillespi. Needless to say, we were almost ecstatic when she effortlessly birthed this beautiful robust girl. A beautiful rose grey, markings of white face and feet with the perfect touch of eye makeup. So gorgeous! We instantaneously named that girl Grazie - Thank you in Italian! Late last summer, she delivered a nice grey guy by Granite Bay's Blue Silver.
