At Autumn Sun Alpacas, we know that is no secret that this true black herdsire is an all-around package that you will want to cover any dam, light or dark colored! Secret is a black that had no fading at his tips or interspersed white fibers when he was showing (he's getting a few 'old man' white hairs now). This isn't surprising with a lineage that includes notable black sires like Othello, recently deceased, and Snowmass Nova's Dark Quest. With his distinctive head and leg coverage, along with his inky black fiber, many stopped and stared at Secret the ring. And worthy of that attention, his fiber has extreme density, bright shine, bundled crimp, and soft handle. These are traits that you want to add or amplify in your breeding program! This is obvious in the 10x champion true black son, AutumnSun's Black Maelstrom. We were fortunate to have had our program benefit from such an exceptional offspring, especially as he was just one of only a few we have performed to Secret! We have the fortune of several excellent herdsires, including grey and black, so Secret has had to be patient. And, Maelstrom is just as a precocious stud just as his sire, as both started breeding under 2 years old. Father and son both breed black well into our program. As our Secret is getting up there in years and we we don't want to overtax him (he is still breeding for us), we are closing him to outside breedings.

Dam:

AutumnSun's Rising Hope

HuacayaOpen (Female)Light Fawn

AOA# 32585995DOB: 9/7/201113 yrs

Hope has the benefit of a matriarchal line of quality fibered females with lasting fineness, long staple, with a nice high frequency crimp style. Even better, this lineage is heavy on the girl production with over 70% female crias by her dam and grandam. Hope's sire is Fossil Ridge's Rumaki -- a Royal Fawn son champion sire of other champion crias. He also compliments the pairing with his lasting fineness, handle, and bundled crimp. Hope has been an easy breeding dam -- taking fast, carrying well, and birthing without complication. Her cria by Secret is her spitting image, which is not surprising since she herself is stamped from the same image as her dam and granddam. Flower is very nicely dense, crimpy, and long stapled with good handle. These qualities are amplification of Hope's qualities! Bred to our Apocalypse son, Orionn, she has produced a lovely white male cria this year. He has a fine, consistent, fine amplitude crimp. He is available separate from his dam.

Her dam's sister has also produced a fantastic champion black sire, our Black Maelstrom. It is undeniable that Flower should be bred to a black herdsire. Her 5-time black color champion sire is Wolf Den's Dark Secret, whose 5 generations of black lineage includes the historically pivotal black herdsire Othello as his dam's sire. Just as impressive is Secret's sire, the well known Snowmass Nova's Dark Quest, son of the famous Snowmass Nova -- himself the son of Snowmass Peruvian Casanova (another pivotal male that has shaped many farms and breeding programs). That is a line of who's who in black color breeding programs! Her light fawn dam, with black eyeliner and lips, is sired by Fossil Ridge's Rumaki -- a Royal Fawn champion son who also produced our 7-time champion dam Fossil Ridge's Special K. We bought K as a young yearling after seeing her amazing cria fleece. So, Flower's dam, Rising Hope, has her own lineage of power packed genetics.

Within her typey frame, are the genetics of BLACK color greatness! She gives a peek at her black heritage with her dark eyeliner and lips. With her color potential she should work nicely in any dark color program -- black, grey or even appaloosa (as harlequin-appies often reproduce their looks when breed to dark-based fawns).
