It has been almost a month since the suspenseful last half hour of the OpenHerd auction, where we bought our newest addition to Rockford Bay Ranch: A beautiful, rose grey junior herdsire, who has Champion Genetics-Silver Spoon Viola.
Well, after waiting (for what seemed like forever), Viola arrived yesterday at our ranch, safe & sound!! (and ain't he gorgeous!!!)
Though only 17 months old, Viola is HUGE!!! We're very much looking forward to his first breedings later this year, for what should be, some large, colored (grey??) cria!!!
One more thing....about his name...isn't it cute? Yeah, I thought so too. It is pronounced: (VEE-ohl-uh). As many of you know, my Grampaw used to be a conductor/violinist/master of many (& has been teaching Rachel violin for quite a few years now, with phenomenal success, I might add).
Viola is a sweet name! He is the first grey 'viola' I've ever seen!! :) :) I hope that you are blessed with many beautiful cria!
