Spectacular fiber and bloodlines
Moonshadow's Bootlegger
HuacayaHerdsire (Male)White
AOA# 31733885DOB: 7/14/200915 yrs
We purchased this fabulous male from Moonshadow Alpaca Ranch in early 2012. We were truly impressed by their mastery of genetic traits in breeding this herdsire. He is a great looker, an extremely friendly male, and has splendid fleece. His sire, Paladin, is a Reserve Color Champion, with great density and fineness. His dam, Moonshadow's Dreamboat Annie, is a blue ribbon winning daughter of Christopher-B, who has a stellar record of blue ribbons, Championships, and Get of Sire wins. Other ancestors include PHA El Viento, Caligula, Tocto, El Moustachio, Peruvian Yupanqui, and CPeruvian Ultima.
Bootlegger's histogram shows extreme fineness, a low SD, 0.06% fiber over 30 microns, and an extreme 60 degree curvature. We shall be using him with some of our females out of our first female, AJ's Peruvian White Rose. Her sire was Accoyo Pachacuti, and her grandsire, Accoyo Vengador. She has an extremely low SD and a C of V in the low teens that she gives to her offspring. She also has passed on extreme density to all her crias. Crossing them with Bootlegger's attributes of extreme fineness and crimp should create some wonderful crias. WELL, GUESS WHAT?? WE HAVE TWO MALES OUT OF BOOTLEGGER. ALPACA ALLEY'S LIGHTNING IS OUT OF AJ'S PERUVIAN WHITE DAISY, AND HAS 8" ANNUALIZED FIBER GROWTH, IN GLEAMING WHITE. THE OTHER MALE, ARI PENDING, IS MOONSHINE, OUT OF ALPACA ALLEY'S PERUVIAN MOON BEAM. HIS FLEECE IS ANNUALIZED AT 5". WE ARE TESTING FOR EPD'S AT THE MOMENT.
Come to our farm and see this boy and other superb herdsires. Perhaps you could be convinced to purchase a breeding to this male.
