Elderwood's Place Your Betts

Blizzard is an elite powerhouse when it comes to herdsire expectations. His exceptional confirmation and fleece characteristics have placed him at the top throughout his show career. His accolades include a Judge's Choice, Best Crimp Award, Get of Sire, 15 banners, and 28 first place ribbons! He sports an ultra-dense, bright white fleece, and his massive bone and exemplary fiber coverage add to his macho appearance. This guy has a true adjusted density of 90.08 follicles SQ/MM of skin - the average huacaya male is 58.49 SQ/MM! All scans indicate that nearly 0% of his secondary fibers are medullated, which is extremely rare. Per Dr. Norm Evans, "Blizzard is only the second huacaya ever that shows few of his primary fibers are medullated when most show 100% medullation." Blizzard's sire, TGF Apocalypse, is a multi-banner winning male and son of Snowmass Elite Legend. Blizzard's dam, TGF Snow Drop, is the daughter of multi-champion, Snowmass Sub Zero. She's a Judge's Choice and Champion producing female. This guy is packed with elite genetics. A champion in halter, walking fleece, and fleece shows, Blizzard has also proven himself by passing on his winning traits to his offspring (check them out below). To date, he's produced as light as white and as dark as bay black - including APPALOOSA AND PINTO! His potential uses are endless when it comes to white or color breeding programs. All in all, this guy is the complete package. Contact us today to add his genetics to your herd!
