A 16 micron MB at almost 6 years! We acquired this male directly from Snowmass as an addition to our dark breeding program especially for darker color and BLACK. His sire and grand sire being black and his solid even consistency in color makes him an ideal candidate to breed for darks. Snowmass kept impeccable recordings of his fleece development/micron counts and identified him on their website "as good as any of our whites". He was also noted as a "Truly unique and exciting young male! His Dam Snowmass Petite Syrah sold for a well deserved record price at our 2011 sale to Cloud Hollow alpacas. His genetics have proven to be the very best in consistency color fineness density and overall excellence in quality!." Take a look at his histograms over the years. This boy is phenomenal!

Moonraker is the production of Apollo King and Luna. The result was so nice the first go around that it was readily repeated with Moonraker as the result. He is nice! Moonraker has a good sized frame, correct in its proportions, beautiful head (more handsome even than big brother Apollo), and flat topline. Add to that his LONG staple length and bright white, fine, dense fleece, and he is about all one can ask for. He has beautiful, uniform crimp style throughout his blanket and is covered with this fleece from front to back, head to toe. Check out his 15.9 micron fleece stats with SD of 3.2, CV of 20.2 and comfort factor at 100%. His dam, Luna, who is in our foundation herd for her extreme fineness, is one of the finest Tuscan Gold crias born. And she has produced! Her next cria after Moonraker was a female we named Moonstruck, and boasted an 11-month histogram with AFD 12.1, SD 2.8 and comfort factor 100%. Moonstruck was sold at the 2015 Amber Autumn Invitational Auction. Moonraker won his class at the 2015 TxOLAN show and went on to become the white male Champion, then repeated a banner win the following year at the same show. Moonraker is proudly co-owned with Charles and Deb Ashley of Aubrey Oaks Alpaca ranch.
