Birth Announcements

Born Aug 22, 2007: LMA Tuckaseegee. Sired by My Peruvian Abundance and out of our Blue ribbon winning dam, Ingressa Jingebre. We just love those "pom poms" on the tips of his ears. Not only is this boys phenotype pleasing his fiber is quite delicious. We wish we could do it justice in the picture below, but it just doesn't seem to catch it all....very, very bright and for his age very uniform crimp. We are very excited about this boy! It pays to "breed for boys", that way when you have them it is not a disappointment, but a thrill.

Born Aug 27, 2007:LMA Pistol's Cowboy. Cowboy is out of our three time blue ribbon winning true black female, Espresso Moon and the Multiple Champion black herdsire MFI Pistol. He is built like a tank!! We are keeping a close eye on this one and have high hopes for Cowboy in the show ring.
