The ewe, 208J was one of the largest yearling ewes. She raised a nice ram lamb last year, and this year was AI'ed, giving us a stocky pair of twins with Hnykill. The ram was sold as a polled breeding ram. He was evaluated in 1994 and was given a score of 83.5 points. Solon has a short, broad head, with a broad neck and muscular shoulders.
Chest is deep, the back is strong and broad and overall conformation is good.
Legs and loins are particularly thick and muscular, and the feet are correct. We had a pair of Solon twins during the 2000 lambing season, and they are very handsome. One ewe lamb lost her twins prematurely to an accident, and the other gave us a beautiful polled ewe lamb. We expect to use Solon again, as he looks to be a very promising polled sire. Ari is black blazed with white belly and feet.
