Dam: Mile High Peruvian Hannah Bay
31304450<--ari-->Bay Black<--color-->Update: Hannah Bay delivered a beautiful black male on 4-12-13. He's a keeper! Pics to the right
When we bred Genesee, one of our most beloved females, to Castano Bay we knew that the offspring would be a knockout. Being that Genesee is beige, we crossed our fingers hoping for a dark fawn or a brown. Instead we were gifted with this bay black daughter, Hannah Bay. She was everything we had hoped for and more. She has that beautiful ebony color and a histogram that we wish we could give to some or our whites. She has one of the finest fleeces on our ranch. Not just among the darks but among the entire herd. As she matured she developed the characteristic tight crimp and density that has made her sire LB Castano Bay the driving force in our color program.
As for her ability as a damn, Mile High Hannah Bay has been the “dark horse” among our females. We felt this girl was the total package and so bred her to our best males, knowing that we would be happy with the cria regardless of its color. We began with our premiere sire
El Nino’s Golden Legend and received a gorgeous medium brown, Mile High Victoria’s Secret. This brunette bombshell has won 6 color championships and blue ribbons at Futurity and GWAS. Next we decided to shake things up and bred her to one of our white herdsires, the My Peruvian Rolex son Majestic Peruvian Daredevil. Our mouths dropped when we saw what we got. It was a white as we partly expected, but this male was a white unlike any we’ve had before. This male became Mile High Peruvian Toulouse-Lautrec is a 7X Champion and Judge’s Choice at GWAS 2012 a level 5 show. He also won the Bred and Owned at GWAS and AOBA Nationals in 2011. For her third cria, we bred her to Crescent Moon’s Shiftin Gears (co-owned with Red Granite Ranch) and were blessed with a white female named Mile High Diamond Girl, who along with her brother make for a brother-sister duo that surpass our other whites and earned Hannah Bay First Place Produce <--description-->
Congratulations to Curt and Sheri Neuman of Plan B Alpacas for their purchase of this beautiful elite herd sire.
