Exceptional Fleece Traits:
Elite Fineness: Percy's 2022 EPDs place her in the top 5% for AFD (Average Fiber Diameter), showcasing her remarkably fine and luxurious fiber. This is further complemented by her top 5% ranking in %>30 (percentage of fibers greater than 30 microns), ensuring an incredibly soft handle.
Uniformity & Density: Her low SDAFD (Standard Deviation of Average Fiber Diameter) in the top 1% guarantees consistent fiber diameter throughout her flece, a trait highly prized by fiber artists and processors. Percy's dense fleece and gorgeous lock structure further amplify her appeal.
Medullation: Her remarkable low %M (percent medullated fibers) at -5.674 places her in the top 5%.
Spinnability & Staple Length: Her top 5% Spin Fineness (SF) confirms her fleece is perfect for crafting the finest yarns, while her impressive Mean Staple Length (MSL), also in the top 5%, promises abundant, high-quality fiber.
Added Bonus: Her Fleece Weight (FW) in the top 5% further enhances her value as a consistent fiber producer.
