Fox is going on 17 and acts like he's 10. If you want better fineness EPDs and uniform, fine, pigmented gray fleeces with lots of crimps per inch and essentially no guard hair, he's the one! This line produces lingering 13 to 19 micron pigmented gray fleeces...consistently. Fox's first five fleeces were combined into one lot to make yarn at Heart and Soul and they commented on the uniformity of the lot. Thanks to his sire, Royal Bronze, Fox is a master at overall uniformity, removing guard hair and fining down fleeces and adding more crimps per inch, good staple length, along with deep and vivid colors. He's a SILVER GRAY, SNOWMASS BRED, AOBA NATIONAL COMPOSITE CHAMPION and well proven to produce healthy, correct, typey progeny! He is highly ranked for other traits too. He virtually removes all guard hair, including belly and bib. We attribute this amazing ability to his sire, Snowmass Royal Bronze, who is recognized by Julie Skinner as having recognized as having strong vicuna traits. Density? He has royal fine daughters (see Dream Catcher) with 4+ pound tui blankets and SDs in the 3s. Character? Gray daughter, Mellona, is 14.5 afd, 3.5 cv; 59 curve (not a typo) @ 21 mos. and then a 63 curve the next year! Uniformity? Hardly anything to skirt out of his progeny's fleeces. Offspring have very consistent, uniform and high yielding fleeces...Little to no skirting is needed for these big blanket fleeces. Primary and secondary fibers are very similar, even across colors in the gray fleeces, most of which are pigmented silver grays. In every offspring you will see higher frequency & amplitude crimp. ZERO to minimal guard hair...no matter the dam or color of the cria. You'll likely never see any guard hair on the belly of a Fox offspring. Soundness and health, correct phenotype, conformation and movement. Even dispositions and very intelligent...and even a few silly personalities. Certified Sorted graded Fox's 3 y.o. champion for "WORSTED applications". No W, LF or MF crias and no blue eyes. -Gray dtr, Kristiana (sold at AOBA auction): EPDs 2% fineness and placed: RC, 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th; bought her back in 2024. -Gray son (Irish Meadows) - 1st Futurity. -Black dtr.

Top 1% ARI EPD for fleece weight...ranked 101 out of 27776. (We have not yet submitted EPD data.) Brentina has fine, sparse fawn fibers throughout her fleece and we're breeding her for colored offspring. Check out her 2010 fleece stats...well over a five pound blanket, accurately weighed, with a very acceptable histogram at full maturity. Her first cria, a white male, was a two time champion. This very impressive, PROVEN, robust, part Accoyo 3x champion with a stellar pedigree was UNDEFEATED in very competitive halter classes. As a juvenile, Brentina was a sight to behold with her amazing amount of fleece. Her very silky-soft, very bright fleece has maintained its fineness. In five years, her AFD increased less than 2 microns and the SD increased only 0.4! Incredible density for a female; exceptional leg coverage and conformation, teeth never trimmed; nice phenotype, large frame; heavy bone, exceptional lactation and a very calm and sweet disposition. She has all the basic alpaca colors in her pedigree from Legacy Gold's line. Brentina is from some of the most influential Accoyo and Alianza genetics: P. CALIGULA (2x), P. Ayaviri, Accoyo Sweet Adeline, P. JESUA, P. Lace, P. MAREE LOVE, P. HEMINGWAY, P. LEGACY, Snowmass Legacy Gold, and Snowmass INVINCIBLE! Her sire, Invincible, sold for $580,000. Her dam's first cria, a female by Legacy, won eight championships, including AOBA. Her maternal granddam, Ayaviri, produced Michelangelo ($89,000) by Caligula, and Accoyo Talara, dam of Accoyo Talisman ($167,000). Sells with our full farm guarantees and support.

We are grateful to Crescent Moon Ranch for putting Sizzin' Shak in the CABA/AWE 2023 auction. Our Shak crias are due beginning July 2024. They will be from tried and true pedigree combinations. Shak is a calm male with a gentle nature. His production record is fantastic. He has sired multiple champion offspring and they display the whole package of excellence...type, conformation, density, consistent character, uniformity...did we say dense?...coverage and extreme uniform fineness...with good bites. As of spring 2023, Shak has 22 AOA registered offspring with show placings as follows for second place or better: One placed second. Four received firsts. Two earned RCs and four earned CHs. So ten of his 22 offspring thus far, have placed first or better. Sizzlin Shak is a paternal half brother to Red Granites' Val D Lsere. Daughter, Woop De Doo, received female color championship at 2022 AOA. Son, Paulinus, received male color championship at 2023 AOA. Son, Anerobico, received male color championship and Judge's Choice at CABA. Shak is available for limited breedings to approved females. Co-owned with La Finca Alpacas and Alpacas of Pachamama.
