DON DIEGO IS CONSIGNED TO THE AMAZING GREYS ALPACA AUCTION BEING HELD APRIL 29, 2017. REGISTER TO BID AT www.AmazingGreysAlpacas.com INCREDIBLE DENSITY AND LASTING FINENESS IN THIS BOY His fiber results at just shy of 9 years old are amazing! 2015 Histogram - AFD 20.5; SD 4.4; CV 21.2; %>30 3.3; CF 96.3; still this fineness at 9 years of age for grey is amazing! His biopsy follicle test (via Ian Watt) is even more impressive! Density - 62.8/mm with a Secondary:Primary fiber ratio of 13.1:1. Only 3 grey alpacas have ever tested higher in density and no grey alpacas have a higher S:P ratio (in fact, only 7 alpacas in ANY color have a higher S:P ratio - including white!). You'll have trouble finding a grey to put up a combination of those kinds of numbers anywhere! And Diego’s lineage is impressive, too - PPeruvian Pluro, Danko, grandsire Crescent Moon’s Rayo Del Sol (6x Grand Color Champ) and Sire Emerald Farms Rincon Cloud, 2005 AOBA Silver Nat’l Grand Champion, are enough reason to want him in your breeding program! And if that wasn't enough, check out his EPDs! Diego has many cria on the ground & every one of them is lovely. He is clearly passing on his amazing fineness to his cria. 2014 Cria Histograms -- Avenger – 15.23 AFD -- Baratheon – 15.3 AFD -- Ophelia – 15.6 AFD -- Antoinette – 17.98 AFD -- Lazarus – 18.4 AFD LASTING FINENESS RUNS IN HIS BLOOD: Previous Cria Histograms -- Jacob at age 2 - 16.7 AFD -- Joshua at age 3 - 16.4 AFD -- Levi at age 2 - 20.1 AFD Relatives' Histograms -- Diamond (Mom) at age 12 - 23.00 AFD -- Black Pearle (Maternal Sister) at age 5 - 17.52 AFD -- Angel (Maternal Sister) at age 7 - 21.89 AFD Diego’s string of blues began in ’07 with a rave review from Judge Wade Gease: “This young man had a presence as soon as he entered the ring…his feet glided across the grass, his toes pointed straight ahead…he’s consistent throughout…good density and wonderful fineness…beautiful conformation”. That was just the beginning followed by Wade praising him again at AlpacaMania for his “exceptional conformation, extreme fineness, beautiful crimp and consistent fiber character”. He continued to stock pile blues and more at every show and fiber exhibition he went to until he began breeding. Diego has a sweet personality, isn’t skittish and comes right to us or visitors. His fiber is exceptional and buttery fine, his micron stats have always been great for a light animal let alone his coloring! They rank right alongside with some of the best in the nation! His fineness, luster, excellent dense coverage, beautiful typey head and strong bone structure will add great qualities to any herd. Diego is now proudly co-owned with Patagonia Estates.

Ava’s famous sire, Royal Peruvian Avanti, is from the Royal Fawn line. He produces crias with outstanding fleece, and Ava is no exception, with incredibly dense fleece. Avanti is a very dense male stamping his cria with character and crimp. Avanti, is the golden cross of Accoyo and highly-selected Alianza bloodlines. Grandson of the legendary Peruvian White Out and Accoyo Royal Fawn, he proves to be a sound genetic out-cross. A well-known alpaca judge says: “Let me tell you about the fleece – it has a fine, soft handle, high-frequency crimp with well-defined bundles, exceptional staple length, excellent density and brightness”. Awards for this sire include ALSA Grand Champion and Best in Show 2004; Northern Illinois Alpaca Extravaganza, 1st and Light Champion; Ohio Alpacafest 2004, 1st & Reserve Light Champion & 1st Bred & Owned; 2005 Sunshine State Alpaca Expo, 1st & Color Champion; 2005 Western Ohio Triple Crown, 1st & Reserve Color Champion. On November 3, 2014 Ava had a gorgeous modern rose grey male cria, Avenger, from our fantastic modern silver grey herdsire, Morning Star’s Don Diego.
