We are retiring, so Tuscan can be purchased with our breeding/show stock. See our package deal. Tuscan Gold has set a new standard of excellence. He is a complete package of perfect conformation, elite fleece characteristics with excellent bundling, brightness, crimp, and uniformity. The brightness of his fleece rivals suri luster. He has total coverage of this fleece from his spectacular head to his toes. And does he have presence! He just knows he is something special. When we check his sheared fleece in at the shows, it invariably gathers admirers and then further inquiry on which animal this fleece belongs to. This fleece has earned multiple championships and every specialty ribbon there is. He has maintained fineness well into his breeding years and is passing on this lasting fineness to his offspring. Tuscan stayed below 20 micron until he was 8 years of age when he was 20.0. And he passes this fineness on. For example, check out the histograms on sons Tuscan's Maestro, Tuscan's Semper Fi, Tuscan's Perfect Storm, all below 20 micron so far at 2 to 3 years of age. And uniformity is also in histogram mix. But a great herdsire is really measured by his offspring, and has Tuscan delivered! He stamps his babies with remarkable consistency for fine, well organized and crimpy fleece with his signature brightness on a beautifully balanced frame with good bone, extremely typey heads, complete leg coverage and his unmistakable presence. These babies have earned several Get of Sire awards for Tuscan Gold and several Breeders Best Three awards for Bella Vita Ranch. Our client list for Tuscan Gold offspring includes prestigious and discriminating farms such as Snowmass Alpacas, AL Pacas, Safe Haven Farm, Red Granite Ranch, Snow Diamond Alpacas and others. Judges have also bred to Tuscan Gold, so he has that stamp of approval from those who should know! Tuscan descends from the award winning MFI Brock line which has produced multiple champion Tuscan siblings. If you are looking to add presence, style, fabulous elite fleece with an incredible hand and extreme brightness, total body coverage, and great heads to your alpacas, Tuscan is your guy. Give us a call to discuss this great male who has proven his prepotency through his offspring. Not only is he improving fleece, but he is fixing conformation issues, hardest of the two to correct. If you like champion huacayas with that teddy bear-look and fabulous bright, fine fleece, that's what he delivers.

Description

Martini is another stellar black female sired by Tuscan Gold, our premier light fawn herdsire who has proven himself to be a champion producer, including some very nice blacks. Martini's dam, Marianna of FRA, was one of the top black females we acquired from Charles and Lucy Farrar, Front Range Alpacas, at their final retirement sale. I remember meeting Marianna's champion gray dam, FRA Masquerada, at the Farrars when there once before for a seminar on running an alpaca show. She was so stunning that I had to ask "Who is that?" Masquerada, sired by the incomparable gray male, Nic Nac, was bred to the well known gray herdsire, Legend's Challenger of KPR, producing true black Marianna of FRA, also a champion female. We took Marianna's packed pedigree and crossed that with our Tuscan Gold, and the result was a home run in DIrty Martini. She has a robust, correct frame with a fully fleece covered teddy bear face and ears. Her fleece is shiny bright, well organized and crimpy with an excellent hand. She had been to the show ring at 2014 MOPACA and showed she can compete with a 2nd place finish. We have bred Martini's dam to the brown Tuscan Gold son, Perfect Storm, who has pewter gray neck and legs, for a 2014 cria, but we will probably breed Marianna back to Tuscan Gold based on the result we got with Martini. We had her consigned to the 2014 AOBA Auction, but our astute client purchased her quickly before the auction selections were made. But she was of such top quality that we had decided she was auction material. She is already an excellent show girl and will be a great foundation female when ready to breed.
