This incredibly lovely beige beauty is no diamond in the rough! Light color enhanced by the barest whisper of beige across her fiber, noticeable around the neck and ears. Blushing Diamond's exceptional quality is there for all to plainly see! Daughter of Bravura & Excelsior, granddaughter of Salomone of Peru and the great granddaughter of Peruvian Hemingway, this marvelous girl was destined to be outstanding in every way! Like Excelsior, Salomone is very full fleeced and his fiber statistics show an average fiber diameter of 18.3 microns, an SD of 4.4. Diamond has proven to be an excellent mother! Son Diamond Continental was born robust and active and a beautiful peachy fawn color. His fiber is just to die for, inheriting outstanding fiber and conformation from both parents. Diamond has been a fabulous mother - easy birther with plenty of rich milk. Retirement sale pricing of $3,500 reduced from $11,000

LATEST SHOW RESULTS: 1st place MABA Spin off, AND! Highest Scoring in color group. This boy has absolutely beautiful fleece. 1st place Hi-Plains Alpaca Show Spin off, AND! Highest Scoring in color group, again! Add this boy to your Herdsire Row. Diamond Continental (“Monty” around the farm) is a gorgeous light fawn two year old huacaya male. Royally bred with Hemingway on his dam’s side and Victor on his sire’s, and this boy has beautiful fiber to boot: MFD 19.7, SD 3.7, CV 19.0% and comfort factor 99.1%! Excellent density and terrifically long staple. We are so pleased with this guy - great conformation, beautiful fiber, and a great personality Diamond Continental is a very handsome, full Peruvian, 3/4 Accoyo boy with excellent fleece and correct conformation. Great head and wonderful presence. His sire, PHA Accoyo Bentley, is a 4X Reserve Champion and son of El Nino. “Monty” is blessed with two very typey parents and he has inherited wonderful qualities from each. Monty finished in second place at both the 2010 Indiana Alpaca Invitational and the 2010 Michigan Alpaca Breeders Show. At the Michigan show he was in the yearling class at age 12 months, 3 days, holding his own against older, larger males. On shearing day there were lots of "oohs" and "aahs" as his gorgeous fleece was gathered up, and it went on to take a 2nd at the OABA fleece show. While the only one in his class at the 2011 Michigan Alpaca Breeders Show, the judge complimented Monty on his wonderful fiber characteristics, including his retaining fineness as he gets older. And, he came away with a blue! Monty is offered at $2,500. Crazy price for a male of this quality!
