Painted Spring's Hope

Hope is just that - she was our last hope for a girl the year she was born. Finally after the birth of 6 boys, we finally got one with indoor plumbing! Hope is everything we knew she would be - a breeding with our best girl + our best guy = fantastic!

Hope does have a brown spot on her shoulder so she should be able to produce color when bred to color.

We've worked hard to achieve our white breeding program and it's paying off with crimp and density along with some of the best and the straightest conformation I've seen. Hope is worth a look if you want to breed for quality white animals.

Hope gave birth to her first cria in October 2013. She's the cutest little pip and we just love her as much as mom. We were thrilled with her 2016 shearing. One of the longest staples we sheared - just lovely structure and crimp.

Hope was bred to Rosehaven's Diablo in 2014 after we saw what he produced last year. That produced a white male with some of the finest fleece I've seen on the farm. He just had his first shearing so it will be fun to see how he develops over time.

Oct 18 Update: Hope gave birth to what I think is our cutest baby ever. He's med fawn with the biggest eyes. He is out of Black Warrior. His personality is to die for - friendly and curious. My favorite of the year! Pics coming soon.

November 2020: Hope gave birth to a white male with perfect conformation and what looks like it will be amazing fiber.
