It's no wonder Sebastian is throwing grey, he's 6th generation grey with tons of grey genetics! Sebastian's cria have started hitting the ground running! In Spring 2015 he has been 3-for-3 in throwing tux greys out of brown, black and grey. They are all amazing cria so far. The product of a well planned out breeding from one of FTAF’s best grey girls, Pretty Lady, to their True Black 13X Champion herdsire, SHVN The Buccaneer. The outcome was spectacular. Sebastian has buttery soft fleece with a consistent crimp throughout his blanket, neck and legs. And oh what beautiful coverage! Pretty Lady and Buccaneer both are holding low microns for their age and have passed that on to their offspring. We expect that to hold true for Sebastian, too. His sire, SHVN The Buccaneer is the top herdsire at Full Tilt Alpacas and consistently produces high quality offspring. Buccaneer is a very true black male that has retained his fineness as even at 6 years old he was able to win his 13th championship. Every time he has won in the ring it has been due to his strong frame and the fact that he was finer than the other animals in the class, even those much younger than him. His dam, Pretty Lady, consistently produces exquisite offspring. Although she was never shown, her fleece was entered into many spinoffs and she has always gotten 1st place. Her fleece spun into yarn is absolutely stunning. Sebastian attended his first 2 shows, National Champions 2011 and OABA Alpacafest 2011, and took first place at both shows. The judges loved his look, the fineness of his fleece and his well balanced conformation! This guy is something special and everything you could hope to add to your offspring! Sebastian went on to win more 1st place ribbons and 2 banners in 2012! Judges comments were that is fleece was as fine as the juvies in the grey class when he was pushing 2 years of age! Then, in 2013 he went on to win 2 more banners – again the judge loved his looks and was amazed at the fineness he is retaining! NEWS UPDATE - Sebastian's paternal brother just won Black Male Color Champion at the 2015 Futurity! Quality runs in the blood!

Onyx is a beautiful true black out of a tux grey dam. Onyx was born to an audience during National Alpaca Farm Days. Her dam, Jubilee, is an easy birther, and the view as the rest of the girls circled around to visit created a spectacular show for the ranch guests. Even with all the attention, Onyx was up and nursing in less than 30 minutes to the applause of the spectators! The quality that Onyx presented convinced her original owners that she should be shown at the California Classic (twice) and the Dixon Caper. The judges were very taken with (and commented on) her outstanding conformation and the uniformity of her fiber. She has lovely, soft, dense, crimpy fleece that hand spinners love! Onyx’s first cria (courtesy of Menagerie Hill’s CMN Amego) is on the ground and he is a pistol! With beautiful medium brown fleece with black points! On June 2, 2015, Onyx had a stunning tux grey boy from our silver grey 4x Champ, Sebastian! Onyx is a great mom with lots of milk, and would be a great addition to any grey or color breeding program. On September 12, 2016, Onyx had a gorgeous tux grey boy from our rose grey Champ herdsire, Snowmass Enlightenment.
