Verticase is one of those alpacas that you know are very special the day they are born! Verticase was like no other alpaca that was ever born on our farm, he was amazing from day one! It was a joy to watch him grow and mature into the Elite Herdsire he is today. Verticase is a son of the late Snowmass Quechua. Quechua himself was a legend of his own, awarded multiple years in a row with the prestigious title of Futurity Herdsire of the Year! Verticase' fleece contains all of the characteristics that any serious Huacaya breeder would look for in an Elite Herdsire. Verticase is exhibiting unprecedented fineness and density. His micron at one year was 13.5 AFD! His fleece is extremely fine yet still carrying amazing amount of density! The results of his skin biopsy show that his density is 110 follicles/sq.mm. Consistently passing all these traits to his offspring. Verticase has the genes and proven himself to be one of the most Elite Herdsires in our Industry today. Upon reviewing his pedigree you will find the names of most of the top Herdsires in U.S. Alpaca history…Peruvian Hemingway, PPeruvian Caligula, 6Peruvian Accoyo Elite and PPeruvian Vengador.

"Snowmass Chateau is indeed a Snowmass "Quechua" son, and a well kept secret until we decided to take him to show at the AOBA World Conference. He had never been shown before so this was his debut. He gracefully walked away with the Grand Champion White Male.. and this was over all the Quechua sons we brought along. He has also gracefully and respectfully been awarded only 1st or Champion in all the fleece shows he was entered in. (See show listing). He has a strong and great frame along side a gorgeous spring loaded bright crimp that has the BLING factor, very exciting to look at, most importantly is his fleece remains very "fine" and retains extraordinary brightness and handle. His progeny are showing the same amazing consistently dense fine and high curvature fleeces across a broad range of color. He is also producing an exceptional staple length in hand with high curve which is very unique and desirable! Chateau's Dam, 6225 6Peruvian Casa Blanca, as in many of our lead breeding studs is extremely important in the genetic elements that are attributed to Chateau. A great example is his maternal Brother Snowmass Sub Zero who carries the same extreme low CV. We attribute this much to the Dam; 6225 6Peruvian Casa Blanca, and added with Quechua = one of our best fleeced Quechua sons over all" 2012 micron results AT AGE 7.4 years 20.0, 3.6, 17.8, 0.9 I have 3 females, 2 white, 1brown and 1 white male that you would be able to name and register to show, that are included in the 150k purchase price.
