Oberon
HP-18S
[CAN]607647
Born: 20 May 2006
Dam:
[CAN]582596
Sire:
[CAN]603952
Oberon is a fine example of an Icelandic ram with fantastic horning,
long fleece with thick thel, and a very stocky broad build with very
muscular neck, shoulders, back and rump.
He passes a great build on to his lambs and they have had lovely fleeces.
His grandfather is the AI sire Kari, an Icelandic Southram Station AI ram (93-908)
with an amazing wool score of 9.5 out of 10. Oberon has a very gentle disposition and is
extremely manageable. He stands still to be sheared without restraint and wags his tail!
Oberon successfully bred all exposed ewes over the years.
Color and pattern genetics:
Color
moorit
unknown
Oberon's mother was moorit and he has sired several moorit lambs.
His other color gene remains unproven.
Pattern
white
solid
Appearance proves white.
He has sired several solid lambs with solid ewes.
Spotting
non-spotted
unknown
Oberon has sired several non-spotted lambs with spotted ewes,
proving that he carries at least one non-spotted gene. His other
spotting gene remains unproven. Two of his white offspring
have a single small patch (2 or 3 cm, about an inch) of color.
Is this a hole in the white pattern or does it indicate spotting?
His offspring have also exhibited patches of phaeo on white, and
flashing in a solid fleece.
