Silver Rose Ovation has been making a splash since he was days old in the pasture. A ranch visitor, when Ovation was 2 months, stated that they wanted to breed one of their dams to him when he was old enough. A very astute ranch visitor. Ovation is the product of the best female we could find, bred to one of the most pre-potent stellar males in the USA, 4Peruvian Legacy, and he did not disappoint. Julio Sumar, while presenting Ovation with a Color Championship when Ovation was almost three years old, stated, "This is what we should all be breeding for." Unfortunately, Legacy has passed on, but fortunately has left us with a small piece of his magnificence which we hope will grow into a lasting legacy of all that he was. Ovation's first crias will be hitting the show rings later this year. They are spectacular with excellent conformation, absolutely stunning pheno-type and fleece that is exactly what we were hoping for! Ovation's cria are exhibiting fineness, superior density, low CV, and elite architectural traits. We couldn't be more pleased. Give us a call to learn more about this phenomenal herdsire for your dams' breedings.

2006 was a good year for girls at Merrimac! We bred our Accoyo Pinachi daughter Bliss to Champion Alpacas' Christopher B and got Sasha. She's got the bone, the conformation and boy has she got the fleece!!! It's hard to get a photo that will do it justice. It's silky, crimpy and shiny! The judges at the shows agree. She took 1st place in a large class at Alpacapalooza where judge Diana Timmerman called her "the total package". She then went on to her 2nd show , the Northwest Alpaca Showcase where judge Peter Kennedy placed her 1st in her class as well as awarding her the ribbon for Female Color Champion! She took the blue ribbon for Bred and Owned Yearling Female at the very competitive 2008 Alpacapalooza show. Like her sister Summer Snow,Sasha is very friendly and sweet sweet sweet.She just has it all. Sasha sells with her show quality cria at side.

Description

Genetics! Genetics! Genetics!!!!! Rockhampton has all the right stuff - and then some! His dam is Merrimac's Sasha, our color champion daughter of Christopher-B and granddaughter of Accoyo Pinachi. His sire is Silver Rose Ovation, a multi award winning son of 4Peruvian Legacy. This is a deep well of the best alpaca genetics. Proven genetics that have produced high quality offspring time after time. We've had lots and lots of female cria over the past 10 years but this is one of those times we were really hoping for a male. Looking at Rocky - it's obvious why! This is one beautiful male! He's got it all going for him - heavy bone, straight legs, compact balanced frame, broad chest, beautiful head and fleece that is fine and bright with elite architectural traits. To top it off, he's a very calm guy and easy to handle. Christopher-B's breeding fee was up at $8000 and Pinachi and Legacy have passed on but Rocky is just starting his breeding career and he'll be keeping up the family traditions, passing on those genetics to his beautiful babies and making the old guys proud! Give us a call for more information on this excellent male.
