Best Mom Ever

Imlay

Imlay is a strong proven female who has birthed 9 cria’s. She is healthy, a great mom, with plenty of milk and has delivered 3 healthy cria’s unassisted here on our farm. She is on the smaller side, very gentle and one of the sweetest girls you will ever meet. All of her cria’s born here with us have inherited her gentle nature and are among the easiest to handle in the herd. She is truly a no-drama mama!

She is registered as a dark brown but is actually a dark rose gray once you open up her fiber. She is full Chilean with silver grey on her sire's side and her 2008 cria is also a modern rose gray. Imlay is older and her fiber isn’t what it used to be, but is holding well for her age and has been graded to a WL4-WL5 for the 2008-2011 clips.

We currently own two of Imlay’s daughters and two sons, and a granddaughter so it’s time to start diversifying some of our genetics. Imlay still has a few good breeding years left, and she really wants to be a mom again after taking some time off. She was bred this year to MaRS Katoomba with a positive ultrasound and we can't wait to see Katoomba's first cria's hit the ground in 2013.

Update: Imlay gave birth to an amazing rose gray male cria on 7/12/13. He is the spitting image of his father and we'd love to keep him; however we do have his father and many of his siblings here on the farm so we will consider a package deal including her 2013 male cria.

She has not yet been rebred as we'd like to get some weight back on her as she's putting all of her effort into raising a gorgeous cria.

2016 -- We have decided to allow Imlay to retire from our breeding program as we have many of her offspring in our herd and she deserves to take a break. We have reduced her price to offer her as an companion or fiber animal with a "retirement" home in mind. As she's getting older, and her last cria took a lot out of her, she will not be sold with breeding rights. This girl deserves to retire in style and enjoy the rest of her life just relaxing.

Sadly, Imlay passed away late in 2016. We will leave her information up for reference purposes.
