You will never meet a sweeter, more mellow alpaca (or one with a longer staple), than our Silver Rose Crescendo. Out of two of our top alpacas, boasting 10 championships between them, his genetics put him on the right track to follow in their footsteps. His conformation is flawless and his fleece is to die for. Beautiful bundling medium fawn elite style fleece; his micron is under 20 at over a year of age. Since he has now settled several females, we are on pins and needles to see the results of the paired breeding's come this Spring. Based on the results of his ancestors, the 2010 offspring promise to be phenomenal. Call us today to add these elite genetics to your herd!!

Trinity is a beautiful true black female with the most amazing eyes! When she arrived she very quickly took charge of our herd and watches everything. If I want to check the safety and status of my herd I just look to Trinity to see how she is behaving. If she is calm, there is no need to check any further.
Trinity has produced some of our best fiber and show animals. Her daughter Aardwolfs Peruvian Marissa was a show stopper. Marissa has many ribbons, including a blue and color reserve in her short career. She is now producing ribbon winners of her own. Trinitys second daughter Columbine Ranch Gwendolyn was not shown but produced a beautiful light fawn male with tons of crimpy bright fleece and his dams classic gray "pattern" that often passes on gray cria. Marco Polo was named so because he was off and exploring just hours after his birth. He often squeezed between the gates and was found fearlessly wandering around the house. Gwendolyns second cria is a dark silver classic gray, confirming our belief that these lt fawn animals with the classic gray color pattern are indeed rose gray animals. Trinitys last cria, a 2016 light fawn girl by Columbine Ranch Marcus, is showing all the traits of her previous siblings, as well as her mothers take charge attitude. She has already sold.
Trinity is no longer a breeder but still produces black fiber that can be harvested and used for production. She is still very much a "guardian of the herd" and notices everything around her before any of the others. .
Description
Marissa is truly the case of lots of alpaca in a little package. Marissa has award winning fleece, taking a blue and reserve champion as a yearling, among others. She hated the show ring, and had a short career, but made a huge impression while she was there. Marissa is well made and very balanced, at about 130 lbs. She has a beautiful teddy bear face, with a short muzzle and big eyes.
Her first cria, Smoking Ember, was a knockout in the showring. Long, lean and elegant, this boy has incredible fleece. He is one of the only true blacks Ive seen that has absolutely no white fibers in his fleece. Marissa passed on the teddy bear face and big eyes, which the judges loved. Unlike his mother, he loved the show ring, and the attention. He took several 2nds and a 3rd.
Marissas second cria, 38 Magnum, is another stunning black male. His sire, Neversummers Manchester, is a powerhouse of fiber and lineage. Magnums fiber is as incredible as his genetics testify. Magnum did well in his first show, taking 6th out of 9 against some tough competition, despite being put in a true black class with some bay black characteristics showing.
Update: Marissa and Gulliver gave us our first home grown classic gray. A bright faced rose gray boy, Boots has Marissas beautiful face and his daddys coloring. We are very pleased with this boy!
Marissa sells as a non breeder, fiber girl. She is still producing wonderful fiber and should for some time. Marissa has become quite the watchdog, she notices everything in the area and is among the first to the fence to protect her herd. U will know right away if there is anything near your herd, even if its just a house cat!
