True black from two true black parents, Jag carries color genetics deep with black and grey. In addition to the rich black color, his fiber has wonderful hand and architecture...a fabulous combination! We purchased Jag to be the perfect complement to daughters coming from our three champion colored herdsires, Snowmass King Crimson, Lace's Peruvian Black Lance,and Avalon's Peruvian Granger. We've already seen the outstanding daughters coming from Crimson and Lance, so we knew we had to find a male worthy of them. We believe Jag is the answer. Unfortunately, Jag was not shown as a juvenile. Tucked away in a back pasture of a large farm, Jag went unnoticed. Well, that has changed! Since we purchased Jag, we have been eager to get him into the showring. He "came home" in early March 2007 and, as a yearling, had his first experience with a halter and lead. Only days later he was in his first show. Jag gained confidence and it has shown in the ring. He glides and prances as he enters the ring, capturing the judges' attention. NOTE! Jag came into his own at the Great Midwest Alpaca Festival where he was chosen as the 1st Place True Black Yearling Male. Judge Jude Anderson then selected him as the Black Color Champion, noting that his fleece was the "finest with good crimp, and lock, even from skin to tip, well covered, conformationally sound with great style"! If you are looking to find a top quality, true black male to breed to your girls, this is definitely a male you'll want to check out. Visit us and see for yourself.

UPDATE: On August 8th, Minuet gave birth to her 4th female cria in a row---she's 4 for 4!!!! Avalon's Maegan is well grown with fiber that is a solid bay black color with bold crimp. She is well conformed and has great presence! Until weaning, Maegan can be purchased with her dam for a package price. Minuet attracts attention with her striking color and upright stature. She is a fancy, with bay black as her primary color. Rose grey, silver grey and medium fawn spots are scattered through her blanket. Good conformation and bone complete the picture. Minuet has proven to be a wonderful mother, birthing easily and producing ample milk for her crias. She breeds readily and...as can be seen from her record...she has been a GIRL producer. She should make a good, problem free starter alpaca. Her first cria, Miss Nadia d'Avalon, is a feminine, bay black with bright, crimpy fiber (SOLD). On October 12, 2005, Minuet gave birth to a vigorous WHITE female cria, Miss Lyric d'Avalon. Lyric has grown to be a nice female with big bone and great coverage. Lyric just became a mom for the first time with the birth of her male cria, Rapper, on 8-26-2008. She is proving to be a great mom, just like Minuet. We held Minuet open until 2006 to get her into a spring breeding cycle. The result was a darling 2007 Lance daughter. That made her three for three...another female cria, Avalon's Calico Lass (SOLD). Minuet is not currently bred. She can be purchased with her female cria, Meagan, by her side in a 3-in-1 package for $9,500. With this offer, buyer can elect to have Minuet rebred to any Avalon Farm herdsire. Maegan is also available for sale without her dam for $5,000.
