We are proud to co-own Jubilee with Olivier and Patricia Guillotin of Shalimar Alpacas of Warwick, where he gets to spend his summers May- November in New York. TP Matrix Jubilee is a son of the renowned Snowmass Matrix and Tierra Prometida's finest fleeced female, Valedar's Parfait--who at 11 years of age and overweight has a micron of 19 still! In fact she is in the top 1% of EPD's for AFD (tenth in the nation), Spin Fineness ( 19th), %F>30m, mean curvature and SDMC!!! He is Dense. He is Fine. He has a beautiful, fine, silky fleece with bundles, brightness, long staples, and a well-defined high frequency crimp. His fineness persists as has his dam's and as has his sire, Snowmass Matrix. Every one of his dam’s (Valedar's Parfait) offspring has EPD''s for fineness in the top 1-3%. As the U.S. alpaca industry matures and advances, breeding decisions are being governed more by the objectivity of science and less by the hype of marketing. Fiber measurement, Estimated Progeny Differences and skin biopsy study all give us insights that can only narrow breeding decision making. All of these facts are available in predicting TP Matrix Jubilee's worth as a stud male. FIBER TESTING 4/04/2015--AFD: 16.3m; SD: 3.7; CV: 22.7; Mean Curv: 54.5; Total Wt: 8.2# 5/30/2014--AFD:18.5m ; SD:4.3;CV: 23.1; Mean Curv: 50.7; Total Wt: 8.2 5/10/2013--AFD:15.8m; SD: 3.9;CV: 24.4; Mean Curv 59.3; TotalWt:5.7# 5/5/2012—AFD:16.2m; SD: 3.9;CV: 24.3; Mean Curv: 54.3; Total Wt 6.2# 5/22/2011—AFD:14.6; SD: 3.3; CV: 22.6; Mean Curv: 54.7; Total Wt 4.0# @(6mo) SKIN BIOPSY “Tierra Prometida’s Matrix Jubilee” was biopsied as a 28 month old white beige male with ARI#31725064. He is marked incorrectly on his 15x scan picture as well as density scan picture as a female rather than a male. I can redo at a later date. His 15X scan shows large fiber clusters mostly uniform in shape and placement. His true density is a freakish 107.73 follicles SQ MM of skin and his S/P ratio is 12.6 to 1. Note his high level 4 of 4 gland presence as the grey areas on the S/P and 250X scans. I would expect brightness of his fibers and this level of gland presence seems to be a strongly passed male genetic trait. 100 secondary fibers average 13.9 microns while 50 primary fibers average 17.4 microns for a spread of only 3.5 microns EPD’s Jubilee’s 2014 EPD’s place him in the top 1% for 4 traits. Jubilee is conformationally beautiful and is extremely typey and compact. In addition, he carries a fleece that is stunning! His strong EPD's from both his dam and his sire are rock solid and predict that he will be able to project these fleece characteristics to his offpring in a reliable and predictable way. All alpacas are not created equally....TP Matrix Jubilee is living proof and the science says so!

I have loved this girl since I first laid eyes on her! She is a beautiful girl with impeccable conformation and bite. She grows out a wonderfully long staple and her fleece is silky with a wonderful handle. She had a wonderful show career, winning 3 Championships and placing 3rd in a large, competitive class at the Futurity. She had a beautiful male cria out of Snowmass Touche' who unfortunately got diarrhea and died at 2 weeks of age, despite excellent care. In the Fall of 2012, she had a lovely female out of our 29X Champion, TP Poseidon's Motivator. We were so thrilled when she was born that we named her Revelry. She was bred to Snowmass Touche' for a December, 2013 cria and she delivered a gorgeous white female cria...TP Touche's Secret Whisper The combination of her attributes for her silky handle, long staple length, and density with his for fineness, lack of medullation and extreme density is exciting...I can hardly wait...and now she has a gorgeous daughter out of this combination. She is stunning. Wow! She had a spunky little Snowmass Elite Legend daughter last year that is beautiful. She is growing up to be an amazing young female with great EPD's for staple length and consistency.

Color Genetic testing: EeAa2 Amber Autumn Zig Zag Shine will produce all colors; white to black! Amber Autumn Zig Zag Shine has just all that!! A zig zag crimp style with beautiful brightness and shine, plus he produces a huge amount of fleece each shearing! He has an excellent combination of fineness with density with a long staple that has persisted over the years. HIs fleece is consistent with remarkable uniformity of micron, which has been typical of the CCNF Legionnaire line. He has been awarded the advanced fleece award (scoring over 80 points in fleece shows) at 6 of 10 fleece shows he has shown in - that's amazing. Zig Zag's show record is impressive to say the least. A total of 1 Judges' Choice award, 4 Color Championships, 3 Reserve Color Championships, a Most Uniform in Grade 3 at the 2020 AOA National Innovative Fleece Show and even won Best Brightness there too. He has won numerous top 3 placements (plus championships) in halter, walking fleece, fleece, and innovative fleece shows. He is a very special male with a beautiful show presence, excellent alpaca type and a sweet, gentle temperament. His sire is CCNF Legionnaire, a Futurity and National Champion, Snowmass Matrix Majesty son. His dam is Amber Autumn Zemira (Zephyrus, Royal Fawn, and Victor). He is loaded to the brim with an elite lineage known for producing high-quality huacayas...! Zig Zag is a beautiful light brown male who we hope will bring out some of our best color genetics forward. He had his first cria in the spring of 2023, and has more in 2024. Color Genotype: EeAa2
