We would like to congratulate Menagerie Hill Ranch in northern California for their acquisition of half interest in RR GUNS KIT Carson to join in partnership with SkyDance Ranch in Utah.

Since then, his fleece has maintained its length and fineness and he remains one of the best grey males in the country. If you have a look at his Watt follicle testing results, the reasons will be obvious. The mix of black and white fibers in his grey is homogeneous in micron. He is the only alpaca, male or female, that carries the best characteristics of the Snowmass Peruvian Casanova and Guns n Roses lines. His production has not disappointed with multiple championships among his offspring. His follicle density testing by Ian Watt is outstanding at his sampling at 2 years of age: Density: 57.9mm/mm2 Seconday: Primary fiber ratio: 9.8:1 In-skin primary fiber diameter: 22.3 micron SD 3.2 In-skin secondary fiber micron: 13.7 micron SD 2.5 Comments: "High density coupled with an excellent set of numbers for the secondary fiber population give this male potential as a significant sire in his color group. a group not known for its uniformity within each fiber population. This is a significant animal for silver grey alpacas, where the black fibers tend to be very strong in micron and vary across the staple in most alpacas of this colour" 2010: 17.6/ 3.28/ 18.6/ CF 99.8%/ 90mm 2011: 19.2/ 3.31/ 17.3/ CF 99.3% / 100mm 2012: 21.74/ 4.03/ CF 97.18 / 100mm 2013: 23.02/ 4.07/ 17.66/ CF 95.66 / 100mm 2014: 21.34 / 3.79 /17.77/ CF 98.07/ 90mm 2015: 22.5 /3.96 /17.6/ CF 96.1/ 90mm

Midnight Kiss has been a consistent producer of quality cria. She is our own Midnight Sun's first offspring and when we dialed in for a true black female out of a light fawn/recessive black male, we didn't even have to specify outstandingly promising superbright, superfine non fading, boldly and uniformly defined fiber. BIOPSY RESULTS! 12/24/2012 Density: 58.6/mm Secondary:Primary fiber ratio: 11.7:1 In-skin mean primary fiber diameter: 25.4 µ Standard Deviation: 2.9 µ Range: 20.7 µ to 31.0 µ In-skin mean secondary fiber diameter: 18.4 µ Standard Deviation: 2.6 µ Range: 12.1 µ to 27.2 µ Comments: These are very good numbers for a true black female alpaca. This is the highest testing density black female tested to date, has an excellent S:P ratio and very good SD’s for an alpaca of any color with some evidence of derived (branching) secondary follicles helping the secondary fiber population numbers across the board. 2015:Micron count: 21.3/ 4/4/ 20.4/ CF 95.7% 2014 Micron Count: 21.4/ 4.48/ 20.9/ CF 95.23 2013 Micron Count: 22.8/ 4.5/ 19.8/ CG 93.6% For this pregnancy we have bred her to Legato Grigio, who has proven himself across our herd and established himself as a powerhouse of color genetics. We are very excited about this next cria.
