We offer stud services to superior quality males classed by Dr Jim Watts using the SRS® breeding system. All of our males have been skin tested for density, length and the fineness of the primary (guard) fibre and have been placed on the SRS® recommended list of males. Males placed on this list must meet the ever increasing bench marks set by Dr Jim Watts and have their progeny assessed annually. Our machos are sourced from superior bloodlines. They are early maturing with high fertility levels. We aim to have them working before two years of age.
We select for high amplitude in our fleece as this results in good elasticity in the yarn. This is essential for maintaining the resilience of the fabric enabling it to spring back to its original shape.
