Dam: Melody's Mystique
31542180<--ari-->Medium Rose Grey<--color-->Mysti is ranked among the best of our females and stands at the top of our grey female production line. Why? Because she produces champions!
Her first cria Hot Stuff had an impressive 2011 halter record with 3 first place ribbons and 3 Reserve Color Championships. He also joined his younger brother Wisp of Smoke in bringing home the Blue Produce of Dam ribbon for Mysti.
Her second cria Wisp of Smoke received a Color Championship at 10 months old he then went on to receive a Reserve Color Championship. He also joined his older brother Hot Stuff in bringing home the Blue Produce of Dam ribbon for Mysti. Wisp of Smoke is our top herdsire based on the number, quality and show winnings of his off spring.
Both of this outstanding males are standing stud at Alpacas of Somerset Farm.
Mysti delivered her first female in 2016. Jamboree is a striking daughter of Crescent Moon's Krypton (first born son of Crescent Moon's Kryptonite). Luscious is the best way to describe the feel of her fleece. It is oh so fine! She has a compact, solid and well-balanced frame.

Read what the judges had to say:
HALTER
"Beautifully fine really organized fleece carrying great fineness and density. I encourage you to take a look at this male"...Halter judge Stephanie Glyptis at California Classic 2011.
"Great, great density, very consistent fleece, and no white fibers. If you have a color breeding program I definitely suggest you take a look at this male"....Halter judge Kevin O'Leary at AlpacaMania 2011
"Presence, Density, Style"....Halter judge Wade Gease at Gold Country Gathering 2011
FLEECE
"Great fineness, good balance across the card, good handle, a joy to judge"...Fleece judge Ken Hibbits at Gold Country Gathering (score 80)
LIVING UP TO HIS NAME: Nicknamed "Hot Stuff" from day one we knew we were giving him a lot to live up to. When it was time to register him we realized he is "Hot Stuff" and the nickname became official.
GENETICS: When it comes to genetics Hot Stuff has a lot going for him. His sire Silver Rose Sentinel is a phenomenal star with a multitude of show ribbons and championships to his credit. Hot Stuff's dam, Melody's Mystique, has produced two cria for us and both are multiple champion males...Hot Stuff and our 2X grey color champion Wisp of Smoke.
PHENOTYPE: Hot Stuff exudes “presence.” He has an excellent topline, upright stance and his substantial bone with solid legs supports his well-balanced frame. His fiber is everything we hoped for…true black, fine, bundled zipper style architecture, and great handle.
We will consider a lease arrangement too.
