AutumnSun's Ragnarok

Bliss has the color, fineness, uniformity and well grown frame in excellent confirmation of a fantastic foundation dam. She has taken after her dam and at 2 years old had become a rose grey with consistent white fibers throughout her blanket. She already had white fibers when we were showing her as a yearling, which is why we chose Bred & Owned, where darks, greys, and ID are grouped together. At her first show, as a yearling with 4 months of fiber growth, Bliss was described by Peter Kennedy as balanced, with good uniformity in micron and expression of organization throughout the staple and across the blanket, with a lovely handle. Bliss was an excellent mom to her first cria, a modern rise grey male by Red Granite's Mr. Ben Franklin, our Ragnarok who went on to another farm. She continued to be an excellent dam to her modern rose grey girl Serenity by our multiple champion with lasting fineness, Smokejumper! Serenity got a lot of admiring looks in her show career and now has joined our breeding program and a foundation girl to carry on both Bliss' and our Jumper's fantastic fiber genetics as he has passed early from an accident. Serenity has carried on her rose grey genetics with her two girl crias. Bliss' next modern dark rose grey girl was by our multiple champion Dauntless may have been her best cria to date! We named her Serendipity Smiles. Serendipity was bred for modern grey, Magistrate, and produced one of the nicest crias that year, named AutumnSun's Joie de Vivre -- who started out bay black and has moved towards modern grey. Another beautiful girl from Bliss in 2021 sired by our multiple champion grey Truthsayer; that makes 3 lovely girls in a row! This one a LF (LF/WH roan really, since there is no such thing as a 'fawn grey'). Though, her fleece wasn't the dark modern rose grey we had come to expect from Bliss, it is wonderful in fiber characteristics. We confirmed that by genetic typing which showed she was a dilute black, 'ee aa'. Clair is one that should be able to breed into a black or grey program, which we have exercised by breeding her to our champion rose grey up-and-coming stud AutumnSun's Artorius. Not to stop there, we have bred Bliss back to grey, this time a classic grey -- AutumnSun's Reposado, son of champion rose grey and our other matriarchal grey line via our AutumnSun's Loreleigh (which brings in great greys, Enlightenment, Avatar, and Addonis). Bliss is proven and bred as confirmed by ultrasound, which fills her breeding warranty. Her breeding will have a live cria guarantee. Certificate transfer, exam, and transportation are buyer costs with a month free agisting to arrange transportation.
