Name: Snowmass Chateau
DOB: Feb. 5 2005
Color: White
Pedigree: USA
Sire: Quechua
Dam: 6225 6Peruvian Casa Blanca
Grandsire:
ARI#: 1396904
Stud fee: $3,500

He has a strong and great frame along side a gorgeous spring loaded bright crimp that has the BLING factor, very exciting to look at, most importantly is his fleece remains very "fine" and retains extraordinary brightness and handle. His progeny are showing the same amazing consistently dense fine and high curvature fleeces across a broad range of color. He is also producing an exceptional staple length in hand with high curve which is very unique and desirable! 
Chateau's Dam, 6225 6Peruvian Casa Blanca, as in many of our lead breeding studs is extremely important in the genetic elements that are attributed to Chateau. A great example is his maternal Brother Snowmass Sub Zero who carries the same extreme low CV. We attribute this much to the Dam; 6225 6Peruvian Casa Blanca, and added with Quechua = one of our best fleeced Quechua sons over all

Avatar has wonderful crimpy, dense, and fine fleece, but what truly separates him from the other outstanding herdsires is his phenomenal handle - due only in part to the exceptional uniformity of his fleece.
