Blush
is a Champion producer who consistently produces award-winning offspring
with dense, crimpy, soft-handled colored fiber. This
full Peruvian maroon daughter of two maroon parents offers exactly
the kind of quality and rare color we value in our breeding program. Her sire, King Crimson, is the Champion full Peruvian maroon
son of two true maroon parents. King has won numerous halter and
fleece awards at regional and national level, including Best Hand, Best
Luster and Best Brightness awards for his magnificent fiber. Blush's dam,
Peruvian Daphne, is the rare true maroon daughter of two 6Peruvian
imports. Daphne also possesses excellent fiber quality, strong, square
conformation and a beautiful huacaya head. Blush produced an award-winning
maroon daughter from a breeding to silver grey, a second place winning son
from her breeding to our white herdsire, Tundra, and a blue ribbon winner
& Reserve Champion son from a repeat breeding to Tundra in 2008. Every
one a winner!

Dam, Peruvian Daphne |
Blush's dam is a well-conformed, healthy true maroon female, with beautiful crimpy, fine fiber, a daughter of 6Peruvian The Saint and 6Peruvian Theresa. King Crimson, Blush's sire, is a full Peruvian true maroon son of 5Peruvian Camelot and CPeruvian Dahna, both true maroon Peruvian imports. Blush's strong solid maroon genetics, combined with her Peruvian heritage, are very rare and desirable characteristics that we particularly wanted to add to our foundation herd. This young female is developing into quite the beauty, and is used as the "poster child" for King by his owners, Somewhere Special in Kentucky! | Sire, King Crimson |
