Jade is our only white female and joined us from the Garyeanna stud sale in Thames on March 13th 2009. She is quite small, but easy to handle with a lovely soft dense fleece which came third in the Hope fleece show in 2010. As white is always such a competitive class we were very pleased.
When she arrived she was definitely the junior of the herd and had to wait until others have eaten before she got a look in but she's gaining in conidence with the others and now holds her own. She will feed from our hand quite happily.
She was born on 14 November 2007 and we mated her in spring 2010 to Livanti's Agenda, one of their fine Australian studs and has produced a lovely white female who is her spitting image so we called her Echo. We had a few problems mating her as she's small, but have found a folded rug underneath her backside does the trick. This year we mated her to Wessex Jay, our own white prizewinning stud.
