Description
Tolstoy joined us in November 2022. Before he left New Zealand, Molly Gardner entered his junior fleece into the New Zealand National Show where he took Reserve Champion Fawn.
Tolstoy's sire is Surilana Silvertail. Surilana Silvertail was selected to improve Molly Gardner's Thistledown Herd's coloured suri fleeces. Silvertail is a black skinned fawn with a fleece which is super dense, has extreme lustre and is very uniform in micron. He has prominant Accoyo males in his pedigree through Icalon, Bartok and T-Pito. We are very fortunate to have have been able to add his progeny - Tolstoy - to our breeding programme.
Tolstoy is a very dense male out of one of Molly's best females - Tula. He was shorn as an 8.5 month old and clipped 1.8kg. His fleece stats in his first fleece were 17.7AFD with an SD of 4.5! His second fleece was 20.8AFD with an SD of 4.5. He has beautiful lustre and an excellent frame but density is his real feature. He has a lot of Accoyo genetics through his pedigree. His sire Surilana Silvertail has the famous Icalon as his grandsire and his dam has Ferrari and Santino 2 on her side.
Tolstoy has just turned 4 and will be working in 2023 where we expect great things in his progeny!
