AI son of Iceland ram Visir (shown at right)
White horned twin (carries solid)
What a gorgeous ram this is. He's had "presence" from the beginning and we are so pleased with this ram. His sire, Visir, scored a very good 85.5 with "extraordinary back muscling and superb loins." Additionally, Visir's daughters' milk index is an awesome 109, with prolificacy at 101
(better than average).
It looks like this ram is taking after his sire for build and he has an incredibly fine and silky fleece. He is shown above at 3 1/2 years of age
(below at 2 1/2). I'm also pleased that he has such a great hornset. I think that Nick has the potential to outshine Ragnar by the time he is an adult in terms of build, width and size. He just gets better and better - he has a massive wide and short neck that transitions so smoothly into his shoulders that I have nicknamed him "No Neck Nick."
