Need lasting FINENESS and consistent micron? keep reading - ask for a fiber sample from this year's shearing. We are a small farm and can't breed him to our whole herd but he's too nice to just hang out in my pasture & barn! His 2014 fiber testing showed an AFD of 22.1, SD of 4.2, CV of 18.8, and only 4.2 over 30 micron!!! His son Prince Samuel has a 21.1 micron fleece with a 20.9 CV (same as last year) - beautiful hand! Multiple congratulations are passed along to the many farms who have chosen Cedar to sire their offspring. Again and again, he has proven worthy. At age 7, Cedar earned yet another color championship! A CHAMPION produces a CHAMPION! Don't finalize your 2014 breeding decisions before you get a chance to see this sire's fleece. He is still very soft and has great density and staple length. He's holding at a mid-20 micron fleece with low CV - beautiful soft hand and great staple length! We have already bred Cedar to several in our herd, so it's time to share the Champion bloodlines with another farm. Cedar has improved the fineness, density and more consistency in the micron with solid bone structure and great fleece coverage with all his offspring we've been able to evaluate! How many 5 year old males do you know that had a CV of 16.6? WOW!!! And he passes this (along with all his other traits) on to his offspring! Remarkable stats - SD and % under 30 was still under 5% at age 5?? Cedar rocks! He has maintained his fineness and has produced fine, dense, consistent fleeces in colors from fawn to black in his cria. For breeders desiring to enhance and upgrade their herds and breeding programs, consider the traits and lineage of Cedar. His grandsire (Matador) and sire (T Peruvian Trophy) provide the foundation for this solid sire.

AOA# 31495622DOB: 5/17/200816 yrs

Joya means "jewel" and she just produced one! A little girl on 6/5! Joya has Dark colored, well-known genetics! First 3 crias were outstanding! Price reduced since she's closely related to our core herd. Easy keeper - great dam! Just got our fiber tests back for 2014 - she's holding at 23.1 micron at age 6 and expecting cria #4 soon! ============================================ Joya's last female cria was sired by Goldrush's Stone Cold Stunner- Lots of well known foundation alpacas in his pedigree: Victor's Hemiaccoyo Casanova (sire of Aussie 38 Special & Aussie Guns N Roses), Emerald Farm's Stone Cloud, Victor, and Danko. He's modern dark rose gray and received a reserve color championship at age 6.5 months! Outstanding fineness and density, with micro bundling of crimpy fiber. This girl has it all! Bright, dense, crimpy bundles of dark fawn fleece with the genetics, confirmation and attitude to back it up! Joya (pronounced as Hoya, means "Jewel" in spanish) carries the Peruvian genetics of Augusto, My Peruvian Blakely (who was a grandson of Caligula & Pperuvian Leon), and Matador. She has soft bundles of high-amplitude crimp from her neck to her flank that are maintaining a nice hand into adulthood. Joya was shown as an older juvenile but still had her cria tips and 5-6" staple length with the late spring humidity which didn't show the best. She did well in the fall, placing just behind the top of the class. Joya has delivered her crias un-assisted and has been a very good dam - plenty of milk, easy to work around, attentive mom. Joya sells as a bred female; her 2014 female cria is reserved.

Description

Holding 22.7 micron at 2.5 yrs! We've decided to market Prince Samuel as a fiber male. He has beautiful fleece that the spinners love. Contact us for a fiber sample and more information. We have a yearling male that would do well with him sold as a pair. Wow! Super soft hand on his 2nd year fleece. Spin-off of 96 / 100 !! Fiber stats: 21.1 AFD, 20.9 CV! His fleece show results from the American Fiber Rally show Prince Samuel placed 2nd out of 5 in the yearling fawn class! Spin-Off results for Alpacapalooza in Washington state: Sam received a score of 96 / 100 and placed 2nd out of 5 in the fawn juvenile Spin-off class! His sire Cedar just earned another Color Championship at age 7 at Spring Bling show in WI last month. New fiber testing from Yocom-McColl shows consistent numbers for his 18 mo shearing almost unchanged from his juvenile fleece: 21.1 AFD, 4.4 SD, 20.9 CV, only 3.9 % >30!!! Cedar and Joya have done it again! Look at the crimpy bundles of fine fleece on this boy with excellent fleece character and density! And our last check of his fleece color looks to be dark fawn or light brown. We look for him to hold his fineness with good density as his sire is still a 24 micron and 20 CV at age 7 and several years of breeding. Sam is a re-breeding of his dam's first cria. His older sister Sierra was sold before weaning so we tried again and got this beautiful boy. Born on a crisp October morning at 15.5 lbs, he was gaining an average of 10 oz a day for the first two weeks. At 2.5 years he's around 140# and still calm and easy to handle. Sam has many well known names in his lineage: Augusto, Matador, My Peruvian Blakely, and Caligula. His sire has several championships for halter and fleece and his dam placed well even in large halter classes. Joya has been a terrific mom, attentive to her cria, plenty of milk, easy to care for and work around.
