"In Memory of Moon Shine" |
Benleigh Moon Shine
The Proof of Progeny and Power of
PedigreeMoon Shine brings
the best of the legendary accoyo Purrembete peruvian bloodlines.
Moon Shine, through his
sire Inti, and Grandsire Ledger's Dream, is 75 percent accoyo.
His fleece demonstrates fineness, crimp,
and density, and these traits pass on to his offspring.

Progeny:
Moon Shine was born 6/12/1997 and now has over
230 registered descendants. Moon Shine
is producing excellently
conformed cria, in the
18 to 21 micron range,
with density. He
is throwing offspring
that look similar — like
"peas in a pod".
Moon Shine is one of the most successful sires in New Zealand. Show
results stand as an accolade to his progeny success. |
