Description

GENOTYPE: eeAA

Floretta has a very nice fleece on her. Medium density and beautiful handle.

Floretta has now been bred to Kane for a 2024 cria. Kane produced some very exciting crias for us in 2023. This combination of Velvet Touche genetics should create a quality cria.

Floretta delivered a very nice light fawn boy. It took her some time to understand being a mom but is now doing a great job.

2025 Oct 31 - Floretta Delivered a beautiful white male by Zip It Zephor. Easy birth and no trouble with nursing. His name is Casper.

Floretta has been bred to Kodiak for a Fall 2026 Cria. We will possibly retain this cria for our breeding program. Since Kodiak is Eea1a2 and Floretta is eeAA, our chances of color for the Cria are 50% White or Beige and 50% Medium Fawn to Dark Fawn. We expect the EPD's of the cria based on the EPD's of the parents to be in the 15-18% range depending on how many and the quality of the animals included in the next round of 2025 EPD's.
