MFI Peruvian Adonis -- 2004 Breeder's Choice Auction

Peruvian Adonis’s fleece is dense and fine with excellent character. We thought he looked incredible this spring in full fleece, and after shearing in April his beautiful young fleece is roaring back! Adonis has all that we demand in our best young herdsires -- pedigree, density, fleece character, and a handsome macho phenotype with full coverage. His conformation is outstanding and his proportions are excellent!

Peruvian Adonis has many strengths, but one of his greatest attributes is his color lineage. His dam is "loveliness in black", also known as Peruvian Adalia. She has had four offspring since import, three of which are grey and one is black. There is no doubt in our minds that Adalia added her own special genes to her fabulous son Adonis.

His sire is our solid silver grey herdsire Peruvian Silvio, one of the color landmarks of the Magical Farms breeding program. There is no way to include Silvio's many ribbon-winning and champion offspring here, so we have placed a small sampling of the quality that this male has produced for us on these two pages.Peruvian Silvio is one of the most consistent producers of grey & black crias we have ever seen:

Peruvian Silvio is one of the most consistent producers of grey & black crias we have ever seen:

Dam's Color	% of time Silvio throws silver-grey, rose-grey, or black from this color dam (as of this publishing)
Silver Grey	100%
Rose Grey	96%
Black	87%
Fawn	89%
Maroon/Brown	79%

We do not know of any other grey male who can match his consistency. With both parents such solid producers of black and grey, who can look for a better color pedigree in a grey male? MFI Peruvian Adonis is truly a treasure and we believe he will be an incredible addition to anyone’s colored breeding program, especially in silver grey, rose grey or black!

Just look at the incredible color background and imagine the breeding potential of this young male, who by the time of the auction should be nearly old enough to start breeding.

Please take a look at My Peruvian Arella (Lot #42 in the 2004 Breeder's Choice Auction) and read her description. With grey males like Silvio who produce grey and black when bred to colors such as fawn and brown, you can afford to cross colors. A consistent grey can take a lot of the guesswork and risk out of using other colors to produce high quality greys and blacks. This is one of the reasons breeders love to use Silvio’s bloodlines. Peruvian Adonis is one of Silvio’s best sons and once you see him and his fleece, we believe you will agree!
