Full Accoyo Caligula son
Accoyo America Zion(deceased)
Alpaca, Huacaya, Herdsire (Male) | White
AOA #839566 | DOB: 6/19/2002 (22 yrs)
Sire: Accoyo Caligula G4572
Dam: Vengador's Accoyo Nirvana
Description
We believe that ACCOYO AMERICA ZION may be the ONLY full accoyo CALIGULA son in the WEST! We have just been informed by AOA that Zion is NUMBER 1 for density in the EPD program, TOP 5 for the SEVENTH Year in a row! and will be highlighted again at the 2018 AOBA National Show. And All of his female offspring we own tested have EPD's for fleece weight in the top 1%!
A stunning combination of his sire CALIGULA & VENGADOR(Don Julio Barreda's coveted Sher Kahn line) ZION is half brother to deceased EL NINO. Caligula was one of the most influential males imported from Peru & has had a great impact on the alpaca industry. Caligula's offspring & in turn their offspring have produced champions in the showring with the densest of fleeces which also incorporate fineness, a combination so hard to achieve, in both white & color.
Zion's dam VENGADOR'S ACCOYO NIRVANA has consistently been a top producer for Pacific Crest Alpacas. We know that the Vengador & Caligula lines have been a winning combination & in Zion we have both the outstanding phenotype backed up by proven genetics.
ZION has an elite fleece with tiny bundles that must be felt to be fully appreciated. He is incredibly dense but does not sacrifice fineness as his AFD & CV have remained low for a breeding accoyo male. His high frequency high amplitude crimp style & long staple length is consistent over the blanket, neck, legs & rump without noticeable medullation. And his softness begs you to bury your hands deep into his fleece! He is compact with a medium well balanced build & perfect conformation with all the regal presence you would expect him to display-and the gentleness that makes him a dream to handle.
Zion's offspring have been spectacular including Color Champions and ribbon winners in white and solid colors. He has produced Rosegrey from Black!
ZION is still breeding but due to arthritis we have decided to retire him. We still have alpacas for sale that have him in their pedigree.
7/31/2018 We are sad to announce that Zion passed away today, leaving a hole in our herd and our hearts. Thank you Zion for your immense contribution to our herd and for being such a pleasant soul.
RIP Zion
