This three time Reserve Champion was born on a Saturday morning during our first farm seminar, Silver Crown has a flair for the dramatic which is exhibited not only by his feisty personality but also by his dramatic silver gray coloring. He entertained not only our seminar attendees but also a contractor who was pouring concrete that day, who exclaimed "you just had a baby and it fell on its head!" Silver Crown took his first blue under Jude Anderson who said he "had the most consistent grey throughout his fleece that she had ever seen in a modern grey, and that his handle was absolutely lovely to the touch". He just took his 2nd blue at the new New Jersey show. We have lots of high hopes for this guy. In the spring at the Empire Fleece event Silver Crown took his first banner for Reserve. Wini LeBreque was the judge and raved over his fineness and crimp style. She said that the Champion and Reserve were a 1/2 a point apart - and hard to tell the difference. And Silver Crown is different. A modern rose grey with incredible fineness and good style and consistent crimp and color running from tip to tail. At his first spring show of 2010 - 2 weeks after his reserve - he repeated with another reserve in halter class. and a surprise to all of us, because he took 2nd in his class. So a rare treat when the 2nd place moves up and takes a reserve banner!!! Excellent for Silver Crown. We think he is like a fine wine... he will only get better with age.....
