Fowberry Nobility is an unbeaten Fawn Male in the UK, over 137 other fawn males in five shows, which includes three Supreme Champions. He is a Top Account son from our best mid fawn female line. With a full Australian pedigree boasting Snowmass Peruvian Escobar, Jolimont Conquistador and Jolimont Commisario, Nobility has the strength and depth of genetics to excel. He has all the desirable fleece characteristics of his sire – extremely fine and dense with character to staple ends; a finely bundling fleece displaying above average brightness. Depth of colour comes from his Grand dam with his dam also being mid fawn. Like his female line, Nobility is neat-framed and well put together and has a confident presence. His first cria are now winning Champions and Reserve Champions at major shows – see below. progeny photo bottom right.
