Description

Edison is an impressive medium fawn male whose pedigree combines championship grey genetics, elite white fleece heritage, and exceptional fleece production. Sired by multi-Champion CSAF's 38's Mercury Rising and out of KCF Illuminati, Edison represents a powerful blend of proven color genetics and generations of highly respected fleece-producing bloodlines.

Mercury Rising established himself as one of the most successful grey males of his generation, earning multiple Color Championships and numerous first-place finishes throughout his show career. Through his sire, Edison carries proven grey genetics and a history of show-ring excellence. On the maternal side, Edison traces to influential bloodlines including Jeremiah's Peruvian Jumanji, Snowmass Royal Rose, Snowmass XXXtreme, and Hemingway-Accoyo Nautilus' Nexxus. These genetics have long been valued for brightness, consistency, fleece quality, and production.

Edison has already distinguished himself through outstanding fleece production, shearing an impressive 5 pounds 4 ounces of yearling blanket fleece. His fleece displays excellent brightness, density, and organization while maintaining the uniformity and handle sought by breeders focused on long-term genetic improvement. His 2025 EPD profile further supports his breeding potential with Top 5% ranking for SDAFD and Top 25% rankings for both Mean Curvature and Fleece Weight.

Beyond the numbers, Edison possesses the substance, balance, and capacity breeders seek in a working herdsire. He combines strong bone, a well-balanced frame, and impressive fleece coverage with the production traits necessary to contribute meaningful improvement to future generations.

What makes Edison particularly compelling is his ability to bring elite white-fleece genetics into a colored breeding program without sacrificing color potential. As a medium fawn son of a championship grey sire and an accomplished white female, he offers breeders a unique opportunity to incorporate fleece production, brightness, consistency, and proven color genetics within a single package.

With exceptional fleece yield, strong maternal influence, proven production traits, and a pedigree anchored by one of the industry's most accomplished grey sires, Edison represents an exciting opportunity for breeders seeking both performance and long-term breeding value.
