The Elite Maximus is one of those few animals who possess instant name recognition in the alpaca world. His reputation as a herdsire, and before that, in the show ring, is second to none. For many years he was the linchpin of Park View Alpacas' huacaya breeding program, and his many offspring have carried his low micron count and incredibly dense buttery fleece to victory in the showring. Max, as we called him, was sold to West Penn Alpacas at the Prestige Auction in September of 2011. Please direct any inquiries about EM to Debbie Harden and West Penn Alpacas. We have included him in our Openherd database in order to honor him as one of our herdsires, and because we still own many off his children and grandchildren.

Description

Carissa of PVA is the resulting union of a sire and a dam with stellar fleece, genetic, and reproductive traits. Carissa’s dam is Camille-Faye. Camille-Faye is one of Park View’s most reliable female huacayas: like clockwork she conceives, delivers and raises healthy crias. Camille-Faye possesses an extraordinary density of fleece, a trait she retains at the age of 13, and more importantly, a trait which she imparts to her crias. Carissa’s full siblings, Faye Rose, Camillia, and Camillero, have all acquitted themselves respectably in fleece shows. Faye Rose’s Juvenile fleece took 2nd at the 2009 AOBA National Fleece Show; Camillia’s Yearling fleece took 3rd at that same show, and Camillero’s Yearling fleece placed 2nd at the 2011 GWAS Fleece show and 6th at the 2011 AOBA National Show. Carissa’s sire is The Elite Maximus, one of the greatest huacaya herd sires in existence. The Elite Maximus had an outstanding lingering fineness with an AFD of 20.2 at 11 years of age. His offspring include 2008 IAO SUPREME CHAMPION Excello; Camilina, JUDGES’ CHOICE, COLOR CHAMPION, and 1ST BRED & OWNED at the 2011 GWAS, CABA Classic, and National Show, (who sold for a commanding $55,000); and 2006 AWE COLOR CHAMPION Champagne & Roses. In 2011 Elite Maximus won 1st place Get of Sire at the National Show, with Carissa’s half-siblings Exquisita, Albertino, and Camilina. He also sired both the females who won 1st Place Produce of Dam at the National Show that same year. We at Park View Alpacas are pleased to offer Carissa to you. Show her as a yearling in the spring! Breed her this summer! Add her and her future offspring to your herd, and put her fleece and genetics to work for you.
