By a champion Snowmass gray sire (AOBA composite, S. Loner) and out of a maroon blue ribbon dam (AWE, M. Safley). Paternal brother, Graphite - 1st Futurity 2012! Paternal sister, Reyna - 1st, Alpacapalooza 2012! "Marky" is covered nose to toes with "lingering" worsted quality fleece...overall uniform, ultra royal 14.5 micron fleece and nicely dense with zipper crimp from his forehead down his tail. His third fleece is one of the best on the farm and triple bundled...big bundles made up of several smaller bundles which are then made up of micro-bundles and it's difficult to distinguish the primaries among the secondaries. He has a smaller build and is lighter boned...common for very fine fleeced alpacas. We didn't take him to the shows because his cria fleece developed character slowly (like his dam), then his second fleece was too tender and his third fleece had a color change right in the middle of the staple from nearly black back to maroon. It's ok...we are now looking forward to finding out his ability to pass on his best to his future crias. Marquis and his full sis, Faith, have a full Peruvian pedigree that consists mostly of alpacas from the final and most stringent importations as well as the famous Alianza sire, P. Bueno. So, except for Bueno and Casanova, they are unrelated to most bloodlines. They are unrelated to all Accoyos and Hemingway.

Bred 9/4/18. Excellent density and exceptional fleece character. Lots of Alianza in her pedigree. 2019: She still has nice aligned crimp from her topknot to the tip of her tail. Felecity inherited density and outstanding fleece character from both of her top quality parents. She also has very good staple length with that density. She has a richly cinnamon colored fleece and dark points. She has solid conformation, coverage from nose to toes and minimal visible guard hair. Felecity's farm name is "Chubs" because she keeps herself in very good body condition and she's so dense her fleece is completely closed, like a wall, making her look even more chubby. Felecity has excellent fleece architecture with that perfectly aligned crimp across the staple that grows out of the skin at an angle. All she needs is better fineness, so we bred her to Marquis! Very successful pedigree...in the shows and in production. Constantino - 5 years of blues and purples among top competition. Trufflina - 13 crias and beat P. Microsoft's fleece (2000,under judge Julie Skinner of Snowmass Alpacas) P. Andrajo - A white from Alianza import, famous NW sire behind hundreds of award winners. Snowmass Nova - One of the best blacks. Snowmass Casanova - Most famous gray; Sold for $147k P. Bueno - "The Man". A white Alianza import...the most overall successful sire in our opinion. Rico de Peru - Gorgeous true black herdsire from the southeast. 6Peruvian 007 - True black sire. P. Goldrush - Quality foundation sire. Accoyo P. Royal Fawn - Sold for $600k.
