Blossom was one of three pregnant female alpacas we purchased from Curt and Nancy Gedney at Hummingherd Alpacas. We knew we loved the look and feel of her, but little did we know she would be EXACTLY what our breeding program is now all about. Sustained fineness through age, high curvature of fleece, and strong lineage. She has definitely been THE foundation of our white herd. Blossom's 1st and 2nd cria were sired by the same stud- Marco Polo. The fiber was simply elite and rated in the Top 5% in many categories, but they didn't quite meet our standard for Herdsire. Her 3rd cria on the other hand, out of Snowmass Starquest, is simply....incredible. Check out his video from YouTube. Starquest's Rocketman (Rocky to us) is demonstrating an amazingly consistent fleece that is bright, dense, and FINE. After a very successful show career, he is now standing stud at our farm. Her 2012 cria is an Accoyo America Kashmir daughter who has the potential to be the best female we have produced since 2006. She has her mom (and sire's) fineness, her mom's frame, and her sire's striking density and brightness. Blossom has produced nothing but the highest quality for our farm, which is reflected in her price. With the decision to sell our herd, Blossom is tough to part ways with. She has been one of a few matriarch dams who have defined our breeding program. Take a look at Rocky and Mira to see her strong offspring that have stayed on our farm. At 10 years of age, she still has more Royal cria in her future. She's always been an incredible mom, with little to no intervention on our part. Truly she is elite.

Congratulations to Mike and Nancy Brletic of Simple Life Farms for their purchase of Magic Man. He is an amazing male will no doubt produce next generation elite cria!! Magic is what happened when we crossed our Archangel daughter, CCNF Evita with a Nautilus son, Accoyo America Tempest. All we can say is holy cow! - just take a look at his pic's! Magic Man was just weaned and already weighs a solid 80lbs. His fleece is phenomenal with superior organization and architecture - the bundling in his fiber is just amazing and it bundles in his tail, his neck and even his legs. He is extremely bright with a fineness and handle that just might be better than his older 1/2 brother Tupac (thank you Evita!) - and that's saying something indeed! At 6 months old he already has a staple length of 4". His dam is our own CCNF Evita. Check out her page to see how her contribution to this boy is equally as impressive as his sires. His sire, Accoyo America Tempest, is out of the notorious Nautilus - one of the cornerstone males in Greg Mecklems breeding program. The skin biopsy results for Tempest were fantastic and one of the big factors we chose him as herdsire for 2 of our top dams. Take a look at his results; "The results of his skin biopsy (Watt) are EXCELLENT!! At 43 months: Density 63/mm2, Secondary:Primary fiber ratio: 13.3:1 Primary fiber diameter 23.9 Secondary fiber diameter 15.9. Ian Watt points out that, "he has an excellent fiber population differential of only 8 microns. ...a superior fiber for a near four year old working male. " BREAKING NEWS: For 2011 Tempest sheared 15 pounds total, with a blanket weight of 4.9 pounds!!" Check out Tempest's EPDs: AFD -1.447, SDAFD -0.1, SF-1.276, %F>30 -4.19, MC 5.22, SDMC2.028, %M-2.623 Magic Man has a pedigree loaded with alpaca royalty and a fleece that embodies the best traits of those that came before him.

Description

Congratulations to Cas-Cad-Nac farm for purchasing this beautiful female! When we got the opportunity in 2011 to get a breeding to Accoyo America Kashmir, we jumped at it. We put our best white female Blossom to him and the result was Kashmira. "Mira" has surpassed our expectations on so many levels. She is conformationally spot on and has a gorgeous head to boot. She has excellent density and character in a uniform, fine fleece. Her 2015 fleece statistics are amazing and she was 11mo's pregnant at the time. Mira delivered a beautiful little female on 6-30-2015. Although she's less than a month old, she is showing great promise! The decision to sell our herd was not an easy one after 10 years of alpaca enjoyment. Now that we have begun that process, there are a few pacas that are difficult to think of letting go of. Mira is by far one of my (Mark) favorites. She is an absolute sweet heart to deal with, but more importantly she has one of the best overall fleeces and confirmation on the farm. Travel always prevented us from showing her, but I have NO doubt she would have placed high. She is uber fine as well as significantly dense. The character is high and tight, something we covet. The $8,000 we are asking is very well worth the investment. Her first cria (daughter) has progressed to become a spitting image of Mira- sporting a 14.9 AFD, 3.3 SD, 0.4 % over 30, and a 46 Curve- she truly is following in Mira's footsteps. An astute breeder will recognize her strong lineage, and continued fiber excellence. Mira is currently pregnant to Magic Man. Check out his page to recognize the EPD power we have put into this breeding. His consistency and seriously eye-catching character will no doubt produce excellence.
