Description

Mercury (CSAF .38’s Mercury Rising) is a striking Medium Silver Grey son of the legendary Aussie .38 Special. He stands on a strong, well-balanced frame with excellent bone, presence, and a notably calm temperament that makes him very easy to handle. His fleece has been recognized for its staple length, density, and commercial value, earning him multiple championships before beginning his breeding career. Mercury’s EPDs reflect his strengths, with Top 10% rankings in Mean Staple Length (MSL) and solid fiber traits, making him a valuable option for breeders looking to combine color production with fleece performance. With grey depth on both sides of his pedigree, Mercury is a consistent producer of desirable grey and dark offspring. At High Desert Farmstead, Mercury has proven his impact across multiple cria: Fynn – light fawn male with strong crimp and balanced conformation. Edison – yearling with exceptional staple length, brightness, and density. Stryker – true black male showing promising fleece density and staple length. Annie (Andalusia) – rose grey daughter with beautiful phenotype and color expression. Mercury reliably passes on staple length, frame, and grey influence to his offspring, making him an asset to any breeding program focused on color and fleece quality. We currently have five females bred to Mercury for 2026 cria, underscoring our confidence in his genetics and production. With his proven offspring, versatile color outcomes, show-winning heritage, and calm personality, Mercury continues to stand out as a premier silver grey sire.
