R.I.P. Losing Megabuck was like losing a best friend. He had the energy and spirit of 10 alpacas yet always behaved like a gentleman for me. His lines will continue on our farm through his descendants. When Megabuck was used for breeding or behavior checks, his orgling would cause ALL the females in the pasture, irregardless of pregnancy status, to run up and gather around. They knew he was special too! As the oldest male he was alpha, but 95% of his life he was kept in the male herd. He was our veterinarian's favorite alpaca for his spirit, disposition / libido, very correct and robust conformation and silky six inch long crimpy, drapey true black non-fading fleece. ********************************************************************************************************************** If you have a female that needs bone and substance, uniformity and less guard hair, back and legs straightened, and depth of color infused...here's your stud!!! We're breeding his daughters to our Snowmass RRoyal Fox and getting beautiful offspring. Excellent breeder! Customers come back to do repeat breedings to Megabuck. Throws gray and lots of solid, non-fading, BRIGHT and SILKY solid true blacks. Many award-winning crias and grand-crias. Champion paternal brother Constantino! Thanks to his two remarkable parents, Locota and Jacira, Megabuck very consistently produces perfectly correct leg structure and movement, substance (robust, heavy bone and muscle and loads of fleece), desirable fleece traits (esp. crimpy primary fibers / lack of guard hair, luster, staple length, HANDLE!), wonderful spirited energy (vigor), and a respectful disposition in his crias. All have outstanding luster and silkiness, above average density, fineness, aligned crimp, long staple, very heavy bone and correct conformation and phenotype. Some of Megabuck's cria's fleeces are finer than their dams! He passes on his wonderful personality and vigor; very heavy bone and muscle; lg. testicles; wide, even leg spacing; correct bite, conformation (esp. legs!) & movement; coverage; crimp; staple length; density; bundles; silky handle; high luster; uniformity; crimpy primaries and fineness..low 20s AFDs and SDs in the 4s!

Old hip injury; walks well and cushes for breeding. Jan 2014 - Stunning MRG daughter, Nova Rosa by Rincon Cloud. Carmelina permanently injured a rear leg early in gestation, but fortunately Nova Rosa made it! When this dam was a newborn, she gained one full pound per day for her first nine days and she milks just the same. Beautiful Rosa has her dam's conformation and fine fleece and her sire's color, crimp and density. See Silver Troy, her very handsome gray son by Lanarks' Silver Charm. 9/10/12 - Carmelina birthed nice female cria, Aria, sired by our Duke. Click on her top photo to take a closer look. Carmelina is stunning. She is the image of her handsome sire colored indefinite rose grey. Carmelina is out of our 1/2 Alianza, blue ribbon (beat P. Microsoft in 2000, judge: Skinner) and champion producing DF granddam of our herd and the Snowmass Nova / Casanova bloodline on her sire's side. Carmelina is very fine and dense with sparse, silvery fibers evenly distributed throughout her entire fleece and she has the classic silver spot on the tip of her tail. Nuance is an award-winning son of Snowmass Nova [(Nova sold for $335k in 06, sire: P. Casanova (Futurity Herdsire of the Year)] who sold for $51k unproven at the 05 Snowmass Making of Champions sale. His brown roan dam, sired by Snowmass' Incan Magic (award-winning Peruvian gray), had an 18 m fleece at 3 yrs. He's owned by Alpacas of Tualatin Valley and Skyline Alpacas. Carmelina is very typey, sound, healthy and robust. Her fleece is abundant with very uniform color. Born at 331 days gestation weighing 18.8 lb., no signs of prematurity, up in 20 minutes and was more interested in exploring world than the milk bar, so we gave her some help with that! IgG: 2681 @ 52 hrs. She gained a pound a day for her first 9 days. Her multiple champion producing dam is known for exceptional lactation. 85 lb. @ 5 mos. 150 lb. on 12/4/07. Carmelina has Alianza genetics from both her sire's and dam's lineages (P. Bueno and P. Andrajo) as well as lots of black and gray on her pedigree. For her first breeding, we used our full Peruvian TB, Megabuck Mink and Mimi Nova was the result. Included: 90 Day Live, Breeding Quality Cria Guarantee; virtually no-risk guarantees; free agistment; transportation assistance; 14 day unconditional return guarantee; farm records; and our knowlegeable, on-going support.

By a champion Snowmass gray sire (AOBA composite, S. Loner) and out of a maroon blue ribbon dam (AWE, M. Safley). Paternal brother, Graphite - 1st Futurity 2012! Paternal sister, Reyna - 1st, Alpacapalooza 2012! "Marky" is covered nose to toes with "lingering" worsted quality fleece...overall uniform, ultra royal 14.5 micron fleece and nicely dense with zipper crimp from his forehead down his tail. His third fleece is one of the best on the farm and triple bundled...big bundles made up of several smaller bundles which are then made up of micro-bundles and it's difficult to distinguish the primaries among the secondaries. He has a smaller build and is lighter boned...common for very fine fleeced alpacas. We didn't take him to the shows because his cria fleece developed character slowly (like his dam), then his second fleece was too tender and his third fleece had a color change right in the middle of the staple from nearly black back to maroon. It's ok...we are now looking forward to finding out his ability to pass on his best to his future crias. Marquis and his full sis, Faith, have a full Peruvian pedigree that consists mostly of alpacas from the final and most stringent importations as well as the famous Alianza sire, P. Bueno. So, except for Bueno and Casanova, they are unrelated to most bloodlines. They are unrelated to all Accoyos and Hemingway.
