NEWS UPDATE:
Bella was exposed to 10-time Champion Ringo Cloud (MF), son of 5-time Champion Emerald Farm's Orlando Cloud (LSG) and 4-time Champion Emerald Farm's Meadow (MF).
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Bella is our MF Fleece Color Champion, is sired by Legacy's El Duro, and granddaughter to one of the worlds most renowned sire, Peruvian Legacy. Bella's fleece handles soft as silk, is extremely fine and high frequency crimp, dense, bright and uniform. She carries beautiful conformation and lovely head. Her sire El Duro has consistently produced elite offspring such as 8X Champion Principio and Bella's full Reserve Champion sibling, Bel Canto's Tuscan Sun.
With the unfortunate loss of Bella's sire, El Duro, and grandsire, Legacy this year, Bella has become a very valuable asset and an outstanding representation of her lineage. She has helped Bel Canto farm earn a Blue and two Reds for Breeders Best Three, a Blue for Produce of Dam, and she earned a 3rd for Bred and Owned Yearling Female.
Bella had a great show career as seen below including her Fawn Fleece Championship and multiple First Place Awards.
Bella's first offspring in 2011 is Bel Canto's Sophia: a sensational little gal sired by Peruvian Lancaster. Sophia has amazing high-frequency, micro-staple fleece, a beautiful frame and lovely head. She is definitely heading to the show ring in the spring of 2012.
Pairing Bella with Ringo Cloud will produce one of the first Ringo offspring available. It should be another show-stopper.
Due Date: July 2012
