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. Quechua's Verticase: Snowmass Quechua X Snowmass Sabrina Owned by West Penn Alpacas, Alpacas Of the Alleghenies, and Golden Spirit Alpaca Ranch

Peruvian Ameera's 5/8 Accoyo Heritage is highlighted with some of the best known Accoyo machos in the U.S. Supported by Accoyo Camilio, Accoyo Leon and Accoyo Royal Fawn, this gal's harmonious proportions and opulent fleece are the ticket to forward-looking breeding. She has bundling crimp in popcorn bundles all through her soft blanket. She is phenotypically correct with heavy bone and strong conformation that combine to give her impressive presence. Her sire, now deceased is Royal Peruvian Apollo, undefeated Color and Age CHAMPION at AOBA Nationals, and sire of offspring that have gone on to win more than 30 Championships! ELITE MAXIMUS IS CLOSED TO OUTSIDE BREEDINGS! This may be your only chance to capture these amazing genetics. At 12 yrs old his 2013 histogram is STILL 19 micron! The Elite Maximus is one of those few animals who possess instant name recognition in the alpaca world. His reputation as a herdsire, and before that, in the show ring, is second to none. For many years he was the linchpin of Park View Alpacas' huacaya breeding program, and his many offspring have carried his low micron count and incredibly dense buttery fleece to victory in the showring. In 2011 Park View Alpacas went to the AOBA National Show with four huacayas that had been sired by The Elite Maximus – they we MAXED out! 1st Place Get of Sire! 1st Place Produce of Dam! Judges’ Choice Female Huacaya! We don’t believe any other Huacaya breeder has ever matched these results. Two of his offspring were available at the 2011 Prestige Alpaca Auction, including 1 of his multiple Judge’s Choice daughters – Camilina. This was a unique opportunity to add this particular combination of genetics to your herd! All told, offspring of The Elite Maximus have earned 25 Color Champion and Reserve Color Champion banners, 4 Judges’ Choice Awards, and 2 IAO Best Head awards. That’s just for halter classes. In fleece classes you’ll find a Supreme Champion, 6 Color and Reserve Champion banners, Best Crimp awards and Most Uniform Breeding Program awards. And of course, that’s just to date. Next year is coming! The list of The Elite Maximus’ offspring and their accomplishments is considerable. Of most immediate recognitions were the Prestige Auction headliners, Camilina, who sold for $55,000 as a 2nd Generation Color Champion and Judges’ Choice female huacaya. Don’t forget Cambria, who sold for $20,000 and 2011 International Alpaca Odyssey Best Head and highest score Walking Fleece winner. The Elite Maximus started his illustrious show career when he was only 8 months old, winning Res. COLOR CHAMPION at the 2002 Columbia Alpaca Breeders Asso
