Gem State Rogun has certainly met the requirements for herdsire status on our farm. He has the genetics, conformation, and fleece statistics that moved him into the herdsire barn. Both his dam and his dam's sire are multiple fleece Champions while his sire placed 3rd at Futurity and 2nd at AWE in large competitive classes. Rogun's fleece exhibits great density, sustained fineness, extreme brightness, and eye-catching character. Simply put, when you put your hands in his fleece the degree of softness and bundling of his fiber are amazing. Mike Safley, 2011 AOBA National Show- "This young male has a superior fleece that is consistent throughout" Wade Gease, 2012 Alpacapalooza Show- "The fiber on this male is stunning. It's bright and almost sparkles when you open it. Very impressive" Cathy Merkley, 2012 Northwest Alpaca Showcase- "This male combines excellent density and fineness with a high degree of character. This is what we want to be breeding for" Rogun's pedigree is one to study for genetic prepotency. In it, you will see the top names that have been a foundation of excellence for breeders throughout the industry: Legacy, Don Julio, Snowmaster, Augusto, Victor along with powerful dams Pachelbel, Senora, and Lilly. Rogun has now settled his first females here at the farm and we are anxiously awaiting their arrival. If you are looking to suppress guard hair, infuse fineness and character, and improve density Rogun is a male to seriously consider. Rogun is a proven male that is demonstrating excellent qualities in his offspring.

Sometimes words cannot describe an animal well enough. Wow, stunning, spectacular are all words we would use to describe Ebony Gold. When you break it all down, she is well worth any price we could put on her... Lineage- We were fortunate enough to buy her dam, TGF Olympic Sky, from Ryen and Ursula Munro at the 2008 AOBA show. After completing a great show career, we were then lucky enough to breed her to Snowmass Royal Challanger. Combining the lines of Legacy Gold and Royal Challanger were not only exciting, but proven by Tripping Gnome. Show record- Judges Helen Humphreys, Wade Gease, and Tim Lavan all commented the same- incredible coverage, holding excellent fineness, compact, stout frame, excellent character to her fleece. The high placing ribbons Ebony received were a reflection of those comments. Fiber- Ebony's 2nd year histogram results confirmed what we were feeling- lingering fineness. Both her dam and her sire demonstrated these same qualities well into age. Also take note of the low percentage of fibers over 30%- not bad at all for a dark color. Ebony is confirmed pregnant to Patagonia's Antonio. A multi-champion and well respected stud, we can't wait to see what these two produce! The astute breeder that elects to purchase Ebony will not only be obtaining our best Brown female, but will be rewarded with a confirmed breeding to Patagonia's Antonio- a mulit-champion powerhouse.

UNIFORMITY of character, fineness, and staple length! Amazing high frequency 3D crimp that carries well throughout his topknot, neck, blanket, legs, and tail. He has a wonderful long staple length complete with perfect individual small bundles from skin to tip and phenomenal density. His handle is supreme due to the uniformity of micron between primaries and secondaries. This Herdsire has little medulation which also contributes a superior handle. Superb brightness to his fleece! He "wows" me every time I see him and run my hands through his fleece. He has a perfect head, great coverage, and a perfect bite! Tronador's dam is the full sister to PCA Hemingway-Accoyo Nautilus and dam of Greg Mecklem's current herdsires: Accoyo America Synergy and ACCOYO AMERICA NORTH STAR AC020. Tronador's sire is Accoyo America Endeavor! An Accoyo El Nino son who has been stamping out superior cria. Endeavor is also the full brother to Accoyo America Denali, another fantastic herdsire in the Accoyo America stud row! Take a look at Tronador's Pedigree, there is not one animal in it who has not produced some of the most elite alpacas in the country. Lynn Eden's who now owns Tronador's dam and siblings said this on 8/23/13: "We just got Tronador's dam, Sequoia's, histogram results for this year -- at age 10 she is carrying a 20 micron fleece with a CV of 18.2% and just 1.5% over 30. Tron's older maternal brother North Star has a 19.8 micron fleece as a seven year old working male, and also maintaining outstanding consistency with just 1.8%>30. North Star is back east now, so Tron is carrying the west coast banner for Sequoia's amazing fleece genetics" Tronador's cria are hitting the ground and they are spectacular. He has been bred to a wide variety of dams with different phenotypes and all the cria are perfect little cookie cutter "Mini Trons". Oh, and if you are wondering about color, he is produced 4 solid colored crias when bred to 4 colored females so far. He has not produced a white or light from a colored female yet. He is letting the color pass while adding attributes from his elite white genetics. All his crias are showing early signs of elite fleeces. Born with bright, dense, very well stapled and crimpy, and exceptionally fine fiber on perfect little frames.
