Bisturi's Periwinkle

CONGRATULATIONS to Caryl and Sam on their purchase of Bisturi's Periwinkle. She has been a premier foundation breeder here at Plateau Breeze Ranch and has given us some gorgeous appaloosa/harlequins. She will stay close to us here in California but will be missed.

**************************************************************************************************************************

Another coveted daughter of an incredible black female, Hvla Poppy, Bisturi's Periwinkle has a beautiful Dark rose grey fleece and Vicuna pattern and a unique phenotype. Her fiber has an excellent crimp. She is a great foundation dam and a stellar breeder. She never has a problem getting pregnant, holding her pregnancies, delivers large 20lb plus babies, has tons of milk and is the most attentive of moms. Periwinkle threw a harlequin/appaloosa in 2018, Rare Gem Heart Kandi (check out her page) when bred to harlequin/appaloosa herdsire, Vintage Cashmere U-Taupe-ia. The following year she impressively threw another wildly-spotted, rare and classic appaloosa/harlequin (PBR Gentlemen's Fascination (see her page!) out of Apache Gentlemen. Then once again, in 2020, we paired her up with Apache Gentlemen, and she threw another gorgeous harlequin/appaloosa, PBR Apache's Spark's Fly. That's 3 for 3 when bred for appaloosa/harlequin.

Her sire is Bisturi, one of the most consistent producers of grey and black offspring and is considered a legendary herdsire. Bisturi moved to Austria in 2013 and, at 12 years old, has a fabulous, uniformly grey-coloured fleece. He has an impressive pedigree. Of over 100 offspring, 55 greys and 25 black animals are on the ground. Bisturi is a fabulous stallion with numerous victories on which he has proven his uniqueness.
