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.

GLR Tashina is just about a cute as they come and a ranch favorite for sure. Her mother GLR Tashi was the first offspring of our multiple champion GLR Tica, one of our first Shavano daughters. Tica won one of the first judges choices as a colored suri during her career. Tashi was sired by our 5 time White Color Champion Young Felipe. GLR Kolaqua, Tashina's dad, was a two time AOBA Nationals Grey Male Color Champion and has produced some of our best cria in the past few years. Tashina is dense, incredibly lustrous and has a great "show ring presence" along with great density, lock and a beautiful little suri head. She is a favorite to turn heads with her crazy and beautiful colored fleece. Her initial micron test was 19.6. With her colored genetics and great fiber characteristics both in person and in her pedigree, it will be fun to see what she produces. At only 7 months old she won Reserve Grey Female Color Champion at both the AAA Futurity and MAPACA Jubilee and went on to place second in her class as a juvenile at the 2013 AOBA Nationals. Tashina was the Grey Female Color Champion at the 2014 AOA Nationals, the AAA Futurity and MAPACA. She ended her show career with being selected as the MAPACA Jubilee Judges Choice. She is bred to Cinders for a fall cria and we can't wait to see the results of that breeding!

I'll I can say is STELLAR!!!! This guy is a Full Accoyo super stud out of the legendary Rockstar who's producing cria with an elite fleece that is taking the alpaca community by storm. This guy is throwing color as well!!!!! His babies are extremely dense with a very high caliber of luster. He is stamping those beautiful blocky heads as well. Look for his cria in the showring in 2015! It's going to impress!!!!!!!
