Barnabus now has 7 “Get of Sire” wins including a win at the ’09 GWAS show, the largest alpaca show in the US – 22 entries! He took his his 3rd Get blue ribbon at the ’09 Great Western Show with 3 perfect juveniles, Xanadu P. Cachet, Xanadu P. Mistral and Xanadu P. Encanto. The little “cookie cutter” trio went on to win “Breeder’s Best as well. Amazing Fleece! We were delighted to be able to purchase this remarkable herdsire at the AAA Futurity Auction in 2004, and are pleased to be standing him in West Virginia. He has the best one year micron we’ve ever seen: 12.8 mic; 2.6 SD, 20.4< & 0.3% + 30 microns at 2 years of age its 16.5 mic, 3.0SD, 18.2CV and 0.3% + 30 mic, and at 4 years of age, after 2 years of breeding, it's a wonderful 19 mic., 3.6 SD, 18.9 CV, 99.5 CF and a CRV of 53.2. Not only is his fleece fine, it was loaded with character, completely uniform throughout the blanket and thoroughly bundled. This boy is the son of PVA Wellington, who is an Accoyo Augusto son, and he has lots of color in his background, too. He now has over 50 crias on the ground, and they're breath-taking and always carry fine fleece. We co-own him with Xanadu Farm Alpacas, and he stands with us in West Virginia from March through September.

AOA# 30496538DOB: 12/5/200519 yrs
Winter Moon took Reserve Champion at the Mid-West Alpaca show, judged by Dr. Julio Sumar under the International rules. Dr. Sumar praised her fineness and brightness. She's an elite Presidio daughter from a Hemingway/Accoyo mom. Winter Moon earned her name by being born to her mom, Spring Moon, on a -15 degree winter night in Colorado. Mom is a 3/4 Accoyo - the daughter of Accoyo Pachacutti and a Hemingway/Accoyo mom. Her cria born 7/5/14 Braveheart is stunning and amazing. We would consider selling them together!! Her daughter Moon Dance is a Multi Blue Ribbon winner!!

Description

This one holds a very special place in my heart and therefore makes it very difficult to give him up, but we are a small farm and need the room. His dam is not a good milk producer and we ended up having to make up a gruel and syringe it since he would not take a bottle. We went through several episodes where we thought we were going to loose him, but this guy had such a strong will to live, we kept going. He has been strong and healthy ever since. Because of the hand feeding, he is extremely friendly and has a awesome disposition. Our guard dog and him play and have been know to sleep right next to each other. His other best friend is Xavier and both have almost identical characteristics. Contender's fleece is very fine and carrying the traits of his now famous sire. He has that long staple length and well defined architecture, soft handle, solid frame and perfect conformation. Lacking a little in the density, but would make a incredible fiber animal or breed to density. I wold love to see him and his best friend, Xavier find good home together.
