Cinders was just the male we had been looking for the quite a few years, to breed to our Shavano and Rastamon daughters. We purchased this beautiful male from Beth Roy of Suri Peak. Cinders had his first offspring on the ground in the spring of 2012 and his kids showed at the 2013 GWAS in Denver coming out of the ring with blue ribbons and much acclaim. Of the four entered all four won blue ribbons with Mystique going on the win the Reserve Color Championship. With a biopsy density of 67.5 at four years old, this guy has some impressive fiber stats. His first Great Lakes Ranch offspring certainly did not disappoint in 2015 nor in 2016. Cinders is the 2016 AAA Futurity Dark Herd Sire of the Year! Needless to say Cinders is a welcome addition to our herd sire line up. Cinders is closed to outside breedings.

Midnight Rock is a jet black full Peruvian female, with dense, super lustrous fiber,extreme coverage and a beautiful suri head. She was bred to Shavano and gave birth to a jet black daughter, GLR Black Pearl who is stunning and immediately became a foundation female for us to retain for our herd. Midnight Rock's GLR Rastamon , GLR Moab was Reserve Black Male Champion at the 2014 AOA Nationals and the MAPACA Jubilee and 2nd at the AAA Futurity. GLR Moab is dense, big boned, super lustrous and will be fun to see mature. Midnight is now three for three in the black cria department with the birth of her 2014 cria GLR Miss Phoebe who sold to Karl and Jan Heinrich of Long Hollow Suris and will be a member of their 2015 show string and join their foundation female line up when she retires. Miss Phoebe is stunning, dense, with the same pearlized locks and luster of her mother with heavy coverage. We are honored with Karl and Jan's support of our breeding program as they really know their stuff when it comes to evaluating fiber and genetics. Miss Phoebe did very well as a juvenile in the biggest shows in the nation in 2015 and won the coveted Black Female Color Championship at the 2016 AAA Futurity. Midnight had a handsome fawn 2015 male cria GLR McQueen, also a Cinders' offspring, who as a seventh month old was the 2016 AAA Futurity and AOA Nationals Reserve Fawn Male Color Championship. Midnight is bred back to Cinders , the 2016 Dark Herd Sire of the Year and expecting a spring 2017 cria.
