Black Gulmoget, 44% UK, twin born 4-6-08
AtAa, BBB?, SSS?
Below is Tilly, shown a few weeks after being shorn (and with her ewe lamb cropped out of the photo). She is just a yearling, so has a bit of growing up to do. She is exquisitely refined, while still being around 70 pounds at last weigh in (2 weeks ago). I like everything about this girl structure wise and I think she has breed type (at least what I think is breed type). She has just a slight amount of side dusting which is what I prefer (less, not more).
Below is Tilly freshly shorn with her day old baby girl Terah. If you biggify you might be able to see her lovely crimp as a lamb. She micron tested wonderfully as well, thanks to her momma :)
I've decided after all to breed Tilly to AI this fall. I'm leaning towards Heights Orion and hoping for moorit gulmoget ewe lambs. Wait. I wished for that this year and got a black ewe lamb ;) Fingers crossed......
Her histogram for this year has yet to be delivered to my mail box. It will be put here once I receive them and can scan them in. Here is her 2008 lamb micron.
She DID come down nicely this year. AFD 22.8, SD 5.7, CV 25.1, CF 87.4%

Okay Garrett...are you holding out on me? I would be totally interested in a DARK gul ewe!!!!! Any way to be put on a waiting list or what??
Me again...Tilly is EXACTLY what I'm looking for!!! She is exquisite! Just beautiful....
If Tilly has a ram lamb with Orion, I'd be interested. I really am drawn to the Orion rams from this year.
Are you keeping her offspring?
OK...lets put it this way....could there be a ewe available....if she has twins??? :-) Iam VERY interested in this breeding and/or Redbud!!
