Ewe-A-Day - Whispering Pines 99

 
 
Here is a super fine spotted ewe out of Egyptian Autumn and Irish Rose. We call her 99, after the Toto song of the same name. All of our ewes from last year were named after songs about girls. Her fleece stats are: 23.7/4.2/17.9/7.6/22.5.
I don’t know if her two year old fleece will come in under 25 microns, but I really want to see what kind of lambs she will produce. She is the only lamb we got out of her mother, who was a Bond daughter. I like her though. I think her yearling fleece stacks up nicely to our other yearling ewes. More importantly, perhaps, I love her straight topline and overall build.
