GLR Rastamon is the densest (Follicle Density 68, micron 20.9) blackest, true black that we have ever produced on the ranch. His sire is Shavano, our true black 1/2 Accoyo Black Color Champion. His mother, LCA Jaimica, is a 5Peruvian Silken daughter, one of Snowmass Alpacas very favorite dams, and one of the reasons that we bought Jaimica from Jack and Kelly Armstrong a few years back. This guy is jet black with no tipping, what so ever, and very impressive in comformation and in bone. He stands upright and proud, even as a juvenile and was awarded the Reserve Black Male Color Championship at his first show, at seven months old, at the 2010 AAA Futurity. His first crop of kids produced plenty of Color and Reserve Color Champions and the second crop followed suit. In theory, based on his fiber stats and pedigree, we hoped that he would step up the quality of his offspring to another level from his dad, AAA Futurity 2010 Herd Sire of the Year, Shavano. So far we are more than impressed with his kids and have him bred to more than half of our foundation females for cria in 2014! His offspring in 2015 earned him the title of AAA Futurity Reserve Dark Herd Sire of the Year. GLR Rastamon is closed to outside breedings. Awards Received 2010 AAA Futurity- 1st, true black juvenile males- Reserve Black Male Color Champion 2010 GWAS- 1st, true black juvenile male 2015 AAA Futurity Reserve Dark Herd Sire of the Year

GLR Allelujah was our favorite in regard to Synergy's first crop of female offspring. She was so lustrous that is seemed like it took days for her to dry off and we couldn't help but be excited about her extreme density and excellent lock. She was shown three times in 2006 at the country's largest and most competitive shows (AAA Futurity, AOBA & MAPACA), and at each show she was in the ribbons. Her dam is one our favorites, GLL Alita who is also the dam of GLR Amelita, the 2005 AAA Futurity Grey Female Color Champion. Allelujah's 2007 cria was a beautiful medium brown female, GLR Anasazi. Her 2008 cria, GLR Arappaho, is a killer true black Shavano son ( our 1/2 Accoyo true Black male Champion) who was one of our best 2009 show string members, winning Black Male Color Champion at MAPACA and the 2009 AOBA Nationals. He was purchased by Linda Kondris of Pines Edge Suri Alpacas. Allelujah's 2009 cria is another true black Shavano kid, this time a female, GLR Ali, and who won Reserve Black Female Color Champion at the 2010 AAA Futurity, Black Female Color Champion at GWAS and the Reserve Black Female Color Champion at 2010 AOBA Nationals. GLR Airella, Allelujah's 2010 female Shavano daughter, a full sibling to GLR Arrappaho and GLR Ali was sold to Heidi Skinner at Snowmass Alpacas at the 2011 AAA Futurity. Allelujah's 2012 cria, a black female sired by Shavano, GLR Alia, was a member of our 2013 and 2014 show string and made her mother proud. She was first at the 2013 AAA Futurity and was first again at the 2013 MAPACA Jubilee where she went on to win the Black Female Color Championship and 1st and Reserve Black Female Color Champion at AOBA Nationals standing behind her pal, Shavano daughter GLR Jamaica who won Color Champion and Judges Choice! GLR Alia in 2014, was the AOA Nationals Black Female Color Champion the 2014 AAA Futurity in Kansas City and the Reserve Black Female Champion at MAPACA. She also won the Black Color Championship at the 2014 Suri Network fleece show in Estes Park. Allelujah is one of our best producers of champion cria on the ranch. Allelujah is bred to Cinders, the 2016 Dark Herd Sire of the Year and expecting an August 2016 cria. Awards Received 2006 AAA Futurity 1st Place 2006 MAPACA 2nd Place 2006 AOBA 5th Place
