2013 Update: HIS CRIA CONTINUE TO WIN CHAMPIONSHIPS! A male offspring has won three Judge's Choice Awards this spring in three shows (including Level V!) Look at his offspring as you go thru the spring show circuits...including AOBA Nationals and Futurity! His grey offspring are spectacular enough for the Blue Ribbon at the prestigious AOBA Nationals and Futurity shows and have won multiple Color Champions again! Two grey offspring took BOTH COLOR AND RESERVE COLOR CHAMPION GREY FEMALES in a recent show! No other full Accoyos can boast this rare quality! Progeny Championships in white, fawn, brown, and greys! Sired by the now deceased El Nino (one of Accoyo Caligula's best offspring. El Nino was the 2004 AOBA Get of Sire, and was the 2005 Light Futurity Herdsire of the Year!). With El Nino's recent passing, Michelangelo has become one of his most prepotent progeny! To lose such a legendary macho in his prime makes the genetics of his top offspring even more critical to a well thought out serious breeding program. Michelangelo has that extremely dense fine high amplitude crimp, and an incredibly even "peach colored" fawn fleece. In late 2005 Dr. Norm Evans did a skin biopsy of this spectacular male, and he had a follicle density of an amazing 115 follicles/mm! (Post-calibration results were adjusted to 107 follicles/mm) His S/P ratio was an astounding 13.28/1! These are still unheard of statistics, and he PASSES THEM ON! Michelangelo will split time between Lakada Farm and Cameo Rose Alpacas, our new co-owner!

Victory’s Accoyo Macaria is a 17 micron FULL ACCOYO daughter of EL NINO's ACCOYO VICTORY! She is beautifully statuesque, bright, fine and dense! Even her AFD is 21.2 micron at five years old, 2013. Her sire, EL NINO's ACCOYO VICTORY is a multiple Blue Ribbon winning white son of the incomparable Accoyo El Nino, who himself was sired by Accoyo Caligula! With El Nino and Caligula both deceased, these genetics are rare and valuable. Victory is the paternal brother to El Nino's Accoyo Michelangelo...who has produced the high selling alpacas in the every auction. This included the high selling huacaya in the 2009 AOBA National Auction, where a juvenile female was sold for $29,500! That just tells us that even in the worst economic environments, the best genetics have value. Accoyo Macaria's dam, SA Accoyo Margo, is that a very fine fleeced Accoyo Cordero daughter. Macaria's granddam is the famous PPPeruvian Mariah, who also was the dam to SA ACCOYO ROYAL AVENGER, who sold two years ago for over $400,000. These are great genetics on both the dam and sire side! Here are 4 of Macaria's 2013 EPD traits: AFD; top 3.84% SF; top 4.50% %F>30; top 4.40% FW; top 2.27%

SNOWMASS ANDEAN MIDNIGHT: "FINENESS in BLACK" Elite Ultra-Fine Blacks are hard to find! However, like many of our Snowmass studs, Andean Midnight has retained his Fineness, Brightness, and Handle with age! Andean Midnight is a beautiful, compact True Black "Silky Soft" stud with an outstanding Royal Pedigree for fineness and should retain his fineness for years to come. Those who need to add proven genetics of fineness, brightness and handle will appreciate the Royal Blacks from Snowmass! He is one of their best! His fiber is incredibly soft and shiny with a silky look and feel. It has a uniform low amplitude high frequency style of crimp. You have to see it to believe it. His grandsire is none other than Andean Bronze, the sire of Royal Bronze – from Snowmass’ vicuna type alpacas who retain fineness under 20 microns after reaching maturity. CONFORMATION: GOOD BONE WITH EXCELLENT COVERAGE HANDSOME CORRECT WEDGED HEADPIECE DENSE TOPKNOT CORRECT BITE SUPERIOR ROYAL “Vicuna” Lineage: Snowmass Andean Night is a brother to Snowmass Royal Bronze (throws true blacks) and Snowmass Royal Flush (throws silver grays like Silver Signature).
