We had been looking for a couple years for a male with qualities to bump up our herd. We were focusing on light fawn, when this beige guy presented himself we just had the feeling we might not get an opportunity like this again. Armani is actually the offspring of two darker fawn parents. We bought this young male before even seeing him in person and before he entered the ring and won a first place at the prestigious Futurity show.
Ironically we already have an alpaca named Armani - our original Armani was from Great Lakes Ranch and is on the suri side of our herdsire line up. This guy is on the huacaya side coming from the prestigious Majestic Meadow's breeding program. We still haven't come up with a suitable nickname for him. A fun fact voice recognition spells "Our money" instead of Armani. Any how our younger, crimpy Armani has some very impressive genetics to us.
Armani's sire, Jeremiah's Peruvian Jumanji, has such an impressive show history with over a dozen championships, numerous judges choice awards and impressively similar to his sire, Get of sire of the Year, multiple times! Armani's dam CCNF Arusha is a Dreadnought daughter from Cas-Cad-Nac farm who was purchased at the futurity auction. Dreadnought has an extremely impressive show record with numerous championships at prestigious shows. Arusha is an example of Elixir/Matrix Majesty crosses. Her dam was a daughter of their futurity champion Tanzania. An impressive line of futurity champions with genetics from top breeders on the other side of the coast from us.
Armani was first entered in the prestigious Futurity show in Kansas City, MO and received a 1st place. Faye of Majestic Meadows says she was proud of his first in his class knowing he was very young. He received a 4th at GWAS and RMA. Then Fall show he received a 1st place in halter where Judge exclaimed "nice amplitude". He received a respectful 2nd place in walking fleece. We showed him fall 2022 he received a 3rd place in halter with all nice comments on conformation and fleece -others placing above were slightly finer. We anticipated this considering Armani comes from darker colors not to mention competition in light huacayas is astounding. He got a very respectful 2nd of 4 in walking fleece whereas the first place championed.
His histogram looks like it should be a sweet spot for our herd at just under 21 micron and a 4.1 SD. His yarn is breathtaking and nearly rivals our champion suri in brightness.
Last year his offspring was a beautiful fawn male. We definitely noticed a tremendous jump in fleece style and density. Did that guy ever have an amazing yeild in his first shear. This year we had a nice dark red fawn born by him.
