Dean was first shown at competition in 2012 where he won the junior male Huacaya (6 to 12 months) section. His fleece also won the grey section (6 to 12 months) at the Manawatu show. In 2014, he won Champion grey fleece at the Levin show with an impressive score of 71.5. Even now, his 9th fleece is still impressively soft, confirming his potential in providing enduring fineness in his off-spring.
He has a wonderfully calm temperament and is easy to handle, traits that show in his offspring.
Dean has some impressive genetics in his background including ILR Alpine Fiber’s Brutus, Peruvian Hemmingway and Purrumbete Brigantine.
Details of his ancestry can be viewed here. With Dean's background, it should be no surprise that his crias have ranged from solid blacks, browns, light fawns and whites through to the different grey varieties. His cria born since 2018 at Te Korito stud have been a solid black male, a medium brown female, a dark brown girl, two light fawn males and most recently a roan girl. Common to all of Dean's crias is fineness of fleece illustrating his ability to produce this trait in his off-spring.
Several of his previous crias have been very successful in the show ring.
