Cloud 9 is our $60,000 2013 WPX purchase from Ricker Yorkshires. Very intriguing in his combination of a powerful yet extended head and neck. Massive in his top and chest and all wrapped up in a very correct structure with a hip design that is nearly perfect in our judgment. If you’re tired of Yorkshires that have a speed-bump-like ham-loin junction we aren’t sure we have seen many that we think can fix that faster than C9. Add the backing of the elite Ricker Showpigs Yorkshire herd and going back the Mighty Mack 74-1 line makes us feel really good about his predictability. It seems like showpigs that can bring extension along with tremendous power thru their front ends AND carry that power all the way thru are sorting to the top pretty quickly. We think CLOUD 9 combines that as well as any Yorkshire we have seen in a long, long time. We think he will be able to make a huge splash in the showpig world and produce breeding stock to influence several generations. We think CLOUD 9 can help make your dreams come true. What we are hearing so far on Cloud 9’s is that their structure is impeccable, they will start off green and then they will come on like a freight train. Cloud 9 has had a very good summer and is even more popular in person and in orders than he was in his first season. He is passing on his impeccable structure and is stamping his off-spring with an ability to handle a tremendous amount of width and top shape. Cloud 9 had an especially good showing @ WPX as he sired the 3rd Overall Yorkshire Gilt, the 4th Overall Div 1 Gilt, & the 5th Overall Div 3 gilt in the junior show. In the WPX Open show Cloud 9 sired the Reserve & $7000 2nd top-selling gilt.
