Description
A stunning jet black male, Marcus has the "show ring" look that catches judges' attention. His carriage and attitude speak volumes about his potency as a herd sire, as does his dominant true black lineage. He is beautiful, and he knows it, and makes sure you know it too. Marcus first cria, out of our full peruvian reserve champion Aardwolfs Peruvian Marissa, is more than we could hope for. Alpacalypse Ranch Smokin Ember is a beautiful true black male with the most amazing soft dense fleece! Ember took 2nd place at GWAS 2015, 2nd place at Fall Fest 2015, and 3rd place at National Western Stock show, confirming our belief in Marcus ability to throw awesome cria.
UPDATE! Marcus second cria is an elegant, long legged, true black female. Her dam, WRH Jaquelline Du Pre is a bay black, so once again, Marcus shiny black color has proven dominant. Alpacalypse Ranch Meagan was sold before she was weaned.
2016; This year Marcus surprised us with different colors! Jaquelline gave us a bay black female, but two other dams gave us light fawns! They are beautiful, very crimpy, dense, and FINE. They also have Marcus carriage and attitude! They should do well in the show ring. Marcus is not for sale but is available as a herdsire.
