We are extremely excited about our acquisition of Riverwood Farms' foundation stud RF 3492, known to us as “Quigley”.  Quigley is an embryo transplant from Highveld Stud in Australia.  Not only is Quigley the 2005 Reserve National Champion Ram at San Angelo, but also he sired Riverwood 4310 who is the Midwest Sale Reserve Champion Ram in 2007.

 

Quigley is massive, with super heavy muscling and  bone structure.  He is broad of chest and shoulders and possesses hind quarters that are inspiring.  RF 3492 is very masculine headed and unquestionably a true Type 5 Stud. Quigley has marked the industry from Ohio to Oregon’s Broadmead Farms, and we are thrilled with the impact he is making at Locust Creek Dorpers! 

"War Wagon" - Hamilton Sheep Station - HSS 1211 "War Wagon" - Hamilton Sheep Station - HSS 1211

We thank Alan McAnelly and Hamilton Sheep Station  for our new Stud - HSS 1211.  "War Wagon" is the 2009 Fort Worth Stock Show Reserve Champion Ram.  His Sire, HSS 982, was the 2007 National Champion White Dorper Ram.  Both Sire and Dam were imported embryos from Kaya Stud in Australia.  These new bloodlines are poised to carry our program forward.

 

From front to rear, War Wagon is one of the thickest rams we have seen.  The strength of muscling in his hind quarters is undeniable.  HSS 1211 maintains superb body score under the sort of extensive conditions that cause other rams to fail.  War Wagon is noted for his correctness and masculinity of head.  All these traits are wrapped in a 100% hair coat.  We expect great results from War Wagon's first Tennessee born lambs in 2010.
