Breeding Rams
DarkHorse Mercury Rising
Mercury is a 2016 PDSS and UHHSA registered ram.
He is a big ram with an exceptionally calm demeanor and is "Gold Class" certified. Mercury has produced many very nice crops of lambs with a wide variety of color. We couldn't be happier with the overall performance of his sons and daughters.

DarkHorse Blade
Blade is a 2023 PDSS registered GSR son of Slainte Mhath. We love his bold colors and horn shape and just like his sire he has a remarkable temperament. Blade was given the chance to prove himself on a few Mercury daughters this season. We're anxious to see what he produces.

Waltzin' T Acres' Adonis
Adonis is a summer 2023 PDSS registered elf-eared ram. He is out of DarkHorse Pixie and By Arrow J's Stratosphere. He is a beautifully put together and fast growing young ram, achieving a gold score at 22 months.
Adonis produced some outstanding lambs for us and though he has moved on, many of his daughters and sons have been retained as future breeders.

Dozer
OWNED BY OTHERS: Dozer is a 48" son of Deetz, (posthumously ranked #1 BH at 56.5"). We were thrilled to be able to purchase two daughters as well as two non-related ewes, all bred by him. We have 4 Dozer ram lambs and one elf eared ewe out of this group and couldn't be happier.

DarkHorse Slainte Mhath
"Chewy" is a 2020 PDSS and UHHSA registered ram. He's a son of Blackwood's Patron and comes from a long line of trophy rams, top and bottom. Chewy was "Gold Class" certified at just over 2 years of age and last scored 109-7/8" on his 3rd birthday.
SOLD
DarkHorse Typhon
Typhon is a 2021 PDSS and THSoA registered son of Mercury Rising. He is a 4-horned (fused left) ram with very nice conformation and color. It is challenging to get a multi-horned to gold with fewer than four sets of measurements, but we believe this ram can do it.
He was last scored at 100-2/8" at 18-months of age.
SOLD
