The end of an era.....
We sadly said Good-bye to our beautiful Maxx after he suffered a seizure and stroke on February 5, 2023. Although his time with us was cut short, we are so grateful for his presence on our farm. He truly was one in a million! Personality, presence and a genuine joy to be with! Such a special boy....we will not forget you!!!

Maxx MacGyver is back home on the East Coast!!
We are so pleased to announce that this gorgeous boy is now residing with us at his new forever home, Honey Maple Farms!! What an exciting opportunity this is to have him join our herd!
Maxx has certainly been around and has the ribbons and banners to show for it! AND he has the most beautiful fleece...check out his pictures!
*As described by his previous owner*
Maxx is one in a million! You have to see this guy to believe him!
With each of his SIX championships, judges have repeatedly commented on the high quality of his luster & density that put him above the rest in his class. Check out the photo of his lustrous fleece (use sunglasses!) His lock structure is amazing, as cool & greasy as it gets. His fleece is already burning up the show circuit!!
Maxx has all the great combined characteristics of his sire, multiple award-winning, 7x Herd Sire of the Year, Macgyver and the beauty & outstanding locks of his dam Angelinn, a rare Rufino daughter. Maxx is extremely upright with the attitude and characteristics of the champion he's already proven to be.

At least 5 of Maxx's offspring have taken top awards in both halter and fleece, including 4 Color Championships, and fleece awards for Judge's Choice, Best Hand, Best Luster and Best Lock Formation!! .
This guy is a fleece machine...and it really IS all about the fleece! Maxx STILL has top 1%-2% EPD's in 3 categories at 13 YEARS OLD!!! We know he's got the looks, but we are sooo anxious to see what he can do for us in terms of fleece production! While we recognize that Maxx is a well-seasoned herdsire....we believe he still has a few good crias left in him and we would love to add to his legacy here at Honey Maple Farms!! Maxx has the best personality and we hope that he will pass that trait on to his crias as well!!
