BREEDERS OBSERVATIONS
Moonshine is an outstanding young Wool male. The first thing you notice about Moonshine is his conformation, an upstanding stylish male, with fleece coverage from head to toe. But where Moonshine really excels is in his exquisite handle which is consistent across his body. A soft, silky feel, that Jim Watts described as "stunning". The SRS(R) tests confirmed what we already suspected, a high density animal, with uniform and fine primary and secondary fibres, and exceptional fibre growth. His genetics are impressive, with a pedigree that includes Purrumbete Highlander, Purrumbete Inti, Purrumbete Brigantine, Benleigh Bellisimo, Belbourie Trooper, and Jolimont Iva.
Moonshine is well grown and has good bone, as the photograph of him at only 14 months of age shows. Also notice how the fleece crimps to the toes and into the brisket.
Moonshine is available for servicing in an SRS(R) breeding program at a discount to subscribers.
