The son of Majestic Peruvian Jeremiah (2008 AND 2009 Futurity Light Herdsire of the Year) and a multi Champion dam, NWA, LTD Precious (a 4Peruvian Pacachuti daughter), Precocious brings two very important things with him to the table as far as we are concerned here at Cas-Cad-Nac. First and foremost is his quality. His fleece represents everything we love in a truly great alpaca: fineness, brightness, amazing density, uniformity throughout, and an outrageous staple length. Secondly is the simple fact that with the exception of his paternal sister, Johanna, he was completely unrelated to the rest of our production herd at the time he joined our breeding program. Can you say puzzle piece?! Having worked with Magical Farms off and on over the past years we had always been on the lookout to do something together so when this opportunity presented itself (and frankly after Precocious spanked us in the show ring yet again) we jumped at it. Precocious is currently standing at stud in Ohio but returns here to CCNF in early July of each year for a 6 month holiday. The first crop of Precocious kids born here throughout 2010 were in a word: dynamic. It is not by chance that two of them, brothers Tenacious and Invictus, joined their sire at the CCNF Stud Barn as working Herdsires in their own right in 2012. Nor that with only seven of his progeny from CCNF representing him, that Precocious was awarded Reserve Light Herdsire of the Year at the 2012 Futurity!

Isabella Rose is the daughter of the amazing imported foundation female, 4P Isabella, whose other crias include our Herdsire, Snowmass Accoyocusani. It is no wonder that she has produced the quality that she has, from her first cria, Isabella Star, to her latest in 2012 there is little doubt about this female's ability to pass on her genetic lines' amazing traits. Last year Isabella Rose gave birth to a ripping little female, Rosalind, sired by Precocious. We didn't exactly skimp on Isabella Rose's breeding for 2013 either, as she was bred to Snowmass Elite Legend, the 2012 Futurity Herdsire of the Year and just produced a very nice looking little male, CCNF Thorn's full sibling. For the time being Isabella will be offered with her cria at side AND we have rebred her to her to our Futurity/NAAS/Mapaca Champion Herdsire, CCNF Elixir! Isabella is now confirmed pregnant and due in late August. Our early read on her cria is that, if still here, he will very much be in the conversation when it comes to picking out our juvenile white males for next spring's show rosters.
