Herdsire

Lodestone is no coincidence! Generations of his ancestors have come together to create almost a 'carbon' copy of his famous sire. This inspires us to expect more from the future than we have seen in generations of the past. Lodestone is the offspring of the legendary Fiduciary and is one of only two males conceived by Jo Carbon (his dam). He is solid slate grey in color and carries the sought-after 'Fiduciary grey' in three generations of his ancestry. But color alone does not a herdsire make! Lodestone also displays the consistency of results that the Fiduciary line produces. His dark face is framed with bangs and topped with the classic banana ears. The strength of his thick legs carries his well-balanced frame with the pride that is his birthright. His dark grey wool is dense and abundant. Lodestone is not coincidence. All of this inspires us to expect more from the future than we have seen in generations of the past. Let your breeding program be touched by the legend. Lodestone is blood-typed.

Bloodlines

Sire - The legendary Fiduciary. For generations, this stud has left his mark and as his name implies, we have come to 'trust' the outcome and consistency that his bloodline produces.
Dam - Jo Carbon - This is a match that has been proven again and again. Jo Carbon is heavily wooled dark brown female with a grey undercoat. When sheared around the torso, she yielded over 10 pounds of wool. She has soft features and a gentle way. Her sire is Gabriel one of the Taylor's first foundation herdsires and her dam is Jezebelle. She is the granddaughter of Chief Sitting Bull, who is no longer with us. Lodestone is one of only two males born to Jo Carbon.
