The whole enchilada!
Horse Mountain's Mr. October
Alpaca, Huacaya, Herdsire (Male) | Dark Fawn
AOA #30902794 | DOB: 8/12/2007 (17 yrs)
Sire: Formally Attired S841 AOA
30902794<--ari-->True Black<--color-->Formally Attired is more then we could have asked for. The truly amazing true black herd sire has not only met our expectations but has far exceeded them. Coming from the reknown Black Thunder bloodline we wanted to make sure we chose a male that could step right in after we retired Black Thunder. Formally Attired is on track to have several of his offspring featured in our upcoming Las Vegas auction where we only show case our top production. To date he has produced black and grey 100% of the time when bred to black or grey. In fact his color genes are so strong that so far when bred to white 60% of the time he has produced black or grey! Miraflores, formally Attired’s dam, has been everything we could have asked for only producing the highly sought after true black crias for us. For those of you who are not familiar with Black Thunder, he has sired some of the most elite black and grey alpacas we have ever produced. <--description-->

Winter Star is one of our first girls and one of our favorite! She has produced several crias for us over the years and has earned a comfortable retirement on our farm.
Description
As we felt he would, Mr. October has matured beautifully. He has a sturdy compact physique, wonderful head and is covered with soft crimpy fleece and is INCREDIBLY DENSE. He has shown well in very competitive classes always being in the top 4. He just placed first in his class at the 2009 ABR Fall Festival, the judge commenting that he is "the complete package".
Mr. O has produced 10 crias from white to dark brown, even a Medium rose gray! His crias have all sold right away.
This is a male for which you'll want to take a second look!
His fiber in 2012 remains full of character, dense, uniform and a Grade 3!
