RIP 9/11/2019, due to complications from arthritis and pain medication. He was regal to his last day. Breeders describe their Constantino line as their very best...PRODUCERS!!! 15 years ago the judges called him the "future of the industry" and they were right. In 2016 two of his juvie sons, Bonafide (LB) and Travelin' Man (BB), earned 1st FFH in very competitive classes. Tino's show career lasted 5 years and he successfully competed with the best in the country. His fleece stats for fineness and weight from 12+ years ago are on par with today's show winners. Tino's fleece took four years to increase one point for Standard Deviation...on a hig plain of nutrition. Tino's 19m /17 CV super dense cria fleece never collected debris; 9 - 10 crimps per inch in '03 and '04. Shearing Tino's first two fleeces was difficult. They were so dense, fine and slick that his skin got pulled into the blades several times. JUDGE'S 2004 Halter Champion COMMENTS: "FUTURE OF THE INDUSTRY", "consistently the finest of his competitors, outstanding fleece character & handle", "extremely fine and dense for his age" (AWE 05, Krieger, 33 mos.), "largest testicles, strength and structure, ability to move out freely, correct proportions and a well-conditioned fleece." Superb phenotype; even temperament; strong libido/early maturation; heavy lactation too! Tino placed in halter and fleece, above award-winning sons of both Accoyo Royal Fawn and Accoyo Legacy...two record high-selling herdsires, Running Late and others.

Charity is a great candidate to be a surrogate dam as she breeds and births easily and stays in top condition. Charity and her mirror image sister Clarissa produce solids. Clarissa is the dam of RC Casimiro (18.0 / 3.0 / 16.7) who is a true black. 6/28/16: Just like her sister, Clarissa Ann (one of our top producers), Charity produced a lovely LF female cria, "Mercy" with our LF Champion Constantino (5 years of awards). Mercy is related to some of the very best in our herd...Casimiro, a solid TB RC (18.0 m / 3.0 sd), Flint (Judge's Choice w/ 6th fleece), Doenutte, Buttercup, etc. Our offspring with Constantino and Snowmass RRoyal Fox combined are beyond what we hoped for...these lines nick very well every time producing very uniformly fine, non-medullated fleeces on correct frames with beautiful type. The first thing you'll notice about Charity is her truly text book conformation and her huge volume of fleece that is very soft with little to no visible guard hair. From her sire and dam she has a people-friendly personality to boot. We have seen white markings on extremities on other alpacas from the famous P. Misty Maiden line when they are bred to dark and gray sires. Charity has black eyeliner and black markings on her ears. These are the some of the best bloodlines in our herd for fleece quality and yield, correct and balanced conformation, lactation and even temperaments. The Isabelle (Gr. Dam) line has also produced mostly females for us and two of the males are Res. Champ. and Judge's Choice winners. Paternal Brother, Graphite - 1st Futurity 2012! Paternal Sister, Reyna - 1st Alpacapalooza 2012! Charity's family tree contains numerous famous alpacas including: 4P Black Magic (Stachowski's), P. Desert Sun, P. Misty Maiden, P. Bueno, P. Casanova, the incredible Snowmass Royal Bronze (Sold at the 2011 Snowmass auction for $78k.) and his dam Snowmass' P. Rosa Royal. Charity and Mercy are unrelated to Hemingway and all Accoyo bloodlines.

We are grateful to Crescent Moon Ranch for putting Sizzin' Shak in the CABA/AWE 2023 auction. Our Shak crias are due beginning July 2024. They will be from tried and true pedigree combinations. Shak is a calm male with a gentle nature. His production record is fantastic. He has sired multiple champion offspring and they display the whole package of excellence...type, conformation, density, consistent character, uniformity...did we say dense?...coverage and extreme uniform fineness...with good bites. As of spring 2023, Shak has 22 AOA registered offspring with show placings as follows for second place or better: One placed second. Four received firsts. Two earned RCs and four earned CHs. So ten of his 22 offspring thus far, have placed first or better. Sizzlin Shak is a paternal half brother to Red Granites' Val D Lsere. Daughter, Woop De Doo, received female color championship at 2022 AOA. Son, Paulinus, received male color championship at 2023 AOA. Son, Anerobico, received male color championship and Judge's Choice at CABA. Shak is available for limited breedings to approved females. Co-owned with La Finca Alpacas and Alpacas of Pachamama.
