Longbow is eye-catching in his proud stance and uniform coloration. The reduction of spots on greys in the show ring has been remarkable with a solid blanket being more common, but Longbow still stands out for his extremely uniform rose grey color as his coat is an even 'roaning' heather without spots. With our champion Frosted Red Rose as his dam and Snowmass Enlightenment as his sire, you can see the strong resemblance! He also inherited his dam's fine, uniform fiber, and a high-frequency crimp from staple to tip all across his blanket. Both Rosie and Longbow have excellent consistency of ratio of micron between light and dark fibers for an markedly smooth handle. His high frequency crimp as well as his fineness are uniform across his blanket and extends from his hips to his shoulders -- another thing that he has gotten from his dam, so his prime fiber clip is extensive. Longbow is well conformed, with a solid frame and proud carriage, easy movement and strong bones, and good bite and nice head. His dark eyes are decorated with a mesmerizing 'bedroom eyes' eyeliner of dark fiber, with his wedge head, spear ears, and good coverage showing an attractive head without any of the wool-blind (wooly face) concerns. Even the fact that he unfortunately lost the very tip of his left ear to frostbite as a newborn still does not detract from his overall beautiful, classic face. Bow is proven, having bred on our farm and fellow farms in the area to produce several very nice crias. The crias have ranged from very nice (good show quality/excellent foundation) to 'Oh, amazing' in fleece qualities. At a marketing event, we sold two breedings on the spot after the farm saw and touched him. He has produced black crias from black dams, a dark rose grey from a DSG dam, a fawn-grey from a LRG dam, and a fawn from a DRG dam. Though he never really got to shine out in the ring, we knew that he had somethings special. When we pulled a sample from Bow's 2015 clip we were amazed with how much fineness, crimp, density, uniformity and staple as a mature stud. The judges agree since, in our pleased amazement, he secured Color Champion in grey at the 2016 GWAS fleece show! Bow never got the opportunities he deserved, and we lost him before he had the chance to go to another farm.

Maggie and her little male cria were a fortunate addition to our herd. Maggie is sired by the multiple champion Magic's Copperfield -- son of multiple champion Blues Magic and the remarkable Almost Paradise Farms Beatriz -- who is also the dam of several other multiple champion alpacas, including the incomparable Bea-2 Bomber. Maggie also bears grey lineage from her maternal side in her grandsire Legacy de Bolivia, who was one of the cornerstone studs of the grey breeding history that were brought into the U.S. specifically to develop grey color here. These are impressive genetics and Maggie shows them off well. She has a medium amplitude crimp with high frequency, a long staple, great shine and handle, and good density. Though she has some conformational issues including her teeth and a short stature, she is such a magnificent producer that we plan on keeping her in our breeding program. Her latest cria out of Autumn Sun's Apache Longbow is a stunning black male. His black fleece glistens with spectalular bundle formations. He has a perfect head and conformation and we are so excited to trot him around the show ring. Maggie just had a lovely true black female cria out of our Silver Peruvian Master Piece in December 2016. We have repeated this breeding for next winter. All open females come with a free breeding and a re-breeding to any of our herdsires. All bred females also come with a free re-breeding.

Description

Anvil is a terrific boy with a great termperament and personality. Easy to handle and friendly. He has great conformation and is growing up nicely. Beautiful fine dark black fleece with a long staple and good density. His sire AutumnSun's Apache Longbow is a gorgeous grey by Snowmass Enlightenment and his dam is Black Magic Girl who has been a strong producer of fine blacks. Unfortunately, Anvil's ear tag became infected last fall and this kept him out of the show ring. But we finally got him in at the Houston Locestock Show in 2017 and he took second at his first show.
