Description
IN MEMORY OF A GREAT NORTH AMERICAN HERDSIRE:
It saddens us to to announce the passing of Helios.
In every breeder's journey there are milestones that mark each step forward. The addition of Helios to our farm was one of those monumental steps. In a joint partnership with Jerry & Deby French of Eagle Valley Alpacas, and Wayne and Susie Kunzman of Green Valley Alpacas we were thrilled at the arrival of Helios to our stud barn. and he lived up to his name, producing several awesome cria for us.
This Futurity Champion, fawn Peruvian son of Bruxo, was the "king of locks" for fawn suris. He had been one of the cornerstone herdsires for the Pacific Crest suri breeding program, and closely held with fewer than 30 of his 63 offspring born off the Accoyo America farm in his nine year breeding history. When he was offered at the 2010 Parade of Champions Auction we knew we had to add his proven genetics to our breeding program.
He is best known for his Championship Fawn offspring including:
Accoyo America Cochise (six 1st places, 4 Championships),
Pacific Crest Sonnetina (two 1st places),
Accoyo America Encantada (three 1st places),
Accoyo America Sonneteer (three 1st places),
Accoyo America Helix (1st & Champion at AOBA National),
Pacific Crest Honeysuckle (three 1st places, one Reserve & one Championship),
Accoyo America Arwen (1st & Reserve Color Champion).
He has also produced Bay Black & Silver Grey so we will definitely let him prove himself on our females with deep color pedigrees.
With an admirable show record, impressive yearling histogram yet to be matched in the Pacific Crest program, proven progeny record, lustrous locking to the skin fleece still at 15 years old, Helios was definitely one of the "GREATS".
Although Helios is not longer with us, his legacy lives on in the wonderful offspring that he produced for us. We will expect our first cria from his daugters in 2014. Stay tuned......
