— The Openherd Team
Huacaya, Male, Proven | Bay Black
Wow! His histogram actually got better this year! And it makes sense as his fleece feels like heaven. Smokey Joe Wood has the most beautiful fine fleece. In the show ring judges have placed him well for the fineness and character of his fleece and for his conformation and flow of movement. Both of his true black parents have retained great fineness. His sire Black Lightning had 19 microns at almost four years old. Joey has beautiful conformation and a perfect bite. We have great hope for the future of this young herdsire! Joey is having success in the show ring but unfortunately as we are on clay drylot several judges have commented that the dirt in his fleece has affected his placing. Notice the first place in the spinoff with a washed fleece!
