Salt River's Solaris

Suri, Herdsire (Male), Proven | Medium Fawn

AOA# 35577898   D.O.B. 6/16/2022 (3 yrs)
Sire:
WTR Silken Gold Bel Air 
| AOA# 32368697  | Light Fawn  |
We purchased Bel Air as an unproven herdsire based on his genetic lineage that traced back to 4Peruvian White Knight, his lovely conformation, and his low P-S spread of 3.9! He was also able to retain fineness (22.9 - 19.0 P-S spread at two years of age). Bel Air went on to produced a number of offspring that we still have in our herd today. His most notable traits passed on were luster and that narrow P-S micron spread.

Dam:
Salt River's Sofina 
| AOA# 35314127  | Dark Fawn  |
This girl has produced one lovely cria after the next and has contributed to the improvement of our herd. Her two girls - Sophie and Sadie are both producers for us and Solaris is now in our herdsire line-up. Her fourth offspring - Socks - is not yet weaned but we fully intend to show him 2026. Sofina produces silky, well locked offspring with narrow P-S spreads - something so important in the production of high quality yarn.

Description

Solaris descends from 4Peruvian White Knight - the herdsire to Shining Armor and, in Solaris's case, Snowmass Silken Gold. He is a conformationally correct male with a buttery soft fleece and loads of luster (He scored 18.5 of 20 in the 2023 SN Fleece Show). He did well in the shows and he even won Suri Male Best Handle in the 2023 Suri Network's Fleece Show!

His biopsy results from 2024 are as follows:
Density - 66.25
S/P Ratio - 8.9
P-S Spread - 4.3 (26.6 - 22.3)

2026 EPD rankings:
AFD - 0.74%
SD - 2.88%

Solaris started his breeding career this year (2025) and we have several confirmed pregnancies. We can't wait to see what he produces!
