We call him 'Sterling' and he came out from Iowa to join us from the Bethel herd, (who provided the top producing Alpine doe for '08, '09 & another for 2010). With our herd's strong type firmly fixed, we thought a line in from Bethel could give us a very nice mix.
With his heavy lines to Shahena'ko and Mamm-Key, we anticipate him passing on some very high production... and his color and spots were just icing on the cake!
His first daughter, Signet Dulce Mia, freshened out in February. Dulce certainly turned out a big doe, (one of Ave's '10 quads,) and we were very excited to see how her mammary and production impressed. With plenty of both, she was a milking machine.
His other daughters all followed the same way.
