Thunderstorm, the stunning son of our gentle giant-Trujillo---who is the son of the Famous Canadian champion, Pperuvian Javier--has inherited his sire's wonderful, easygoing temperament & beautiful fleece, with density, fineness, and luster. Though he produced 2 beautiful male cria (Summer 2011), both with gorgeous fleece, we decided to retire him from the breeding circle. He would be a great companion or fiber animal. All offers will be considered.

Here to brighten your day, Daisy-Sunshine proves her incredible worth with just one look at her histograms (and temperament). Where else do you see micron counts -- 4 YEARS WORTH -- ranging at 16 microns??? Look what her histograms have shown!: (AFD) 16.9 (year 1); 16.3 (year 2); 16.5 (year 3); 16 (year 4) Her fleece is absolutely spectacular, showing almost unparalleled pervasive fineness, incredible definition, and dense bundles of bright, low micron, low amplitude, high frequency, tight crimp. Her dam-HEMINGWAY'S NAOMI shows the same. (Interestingly, she was boarded for her first 2 years, and evidently she was fed more protein, because look how her AFD drops at her 3rd shearing) 20 (year 1); 21.4 (year 2); 18.7 (year 3); 18.2 (year 5); 19.5 (year 6); and 18.7 (year 7)!!!! Her sire-the award-winning Snowmass Snow Legend had an AFD of whopping 14.4 (year 1); 18.8 (year 3); 20.7 (year 5); & 20.8 (year 9). Her siblings show the same: Love: 17.7 (year 1); 19.8 (year 2); 18.4 (year 3) Reflection: 18.3 (year 1); 17.5 (year 2) Rose: 17.6 (year 1); 16.7 (year 2) Jewel: 16.4 (year 1); 16.1 (year 2) Packed jam full of the amazing quality genetics of HEMINGWAY, SNOWMASTER, SNOWMASS INCAACCOYO STAR, and ACERO MARKA'S ROCKAMUNDO, plus her splendid fleece, Daisy is the perfect pick to add these incredible qualities to anyone who is striving for a fine-lined fleece. Last year, she threw a beige male cria (Rockford Revelation) out of Snowmass Reminiscence, who has almost impenetrably dense fleece and a champion ancestry line from Snowmass Edelweis, Snowmass Legacy Gold, Snowmaster, and Snowmass Andean Bronze, and we look forward to see what his fleece will look like at shearing. This year, she threw a gorgeous female cria-Delightful, when bred to Diomedes' Dirk of Stirling Ridge (son of Accoyo America Diomedes). We look forward to rebreeding Daisy again to the Snowmass stud of your choice, for a Summer 2015 cria.

Description

(Rockford Bay Ranch description) "Guski" is the stunning combination of breeding Hemi-Snowmass Daisy-Sunshine to Rockford Thunderstorm--the stunning son of our late gentle giant-LPS Trujillo, & proud grandson of the Canadian champion, Peruvian Javier. We are excited to see what this mix of genetics, fiber & color will produce in Guski's first shearing in June. Another thing we're looking forward to seeing is whether he has inherited the lingering fineness that comes with his dam: Look at what DAISY'S histograms were (AFD) 16.9 (year 1); 16.3 (year 2); 16.5 (year 3). Her dam-HEMINGWAY'S NAOMI shows the same. (Interestingly, she was boarded for her first 2 years, and evidently she was fed more protein, because look how her AFD drops at her 3rd shearing) 20 (year 1); 21.4 (year 2); 18.7 (year 3); 18.2 (year 5); 19.5 (year 6); and 18.7 (year 7)!!!! Daisy's sire-the award-winning Snowmass Snow Legend had an AFD of whopping 14.4 (year 1); 18.8 (year 3); 20.7 (year 5); & 21.6 (year 8). Her siblings show the same: Love: 17.7 (year 1); 19.8 (year 2); 18.4 (year 3) Reflection: 18.3 (year 1); 17.5 (year 2) Packed jam full of the amazing quality genetics of Hemingway, Snowmaster, Snowmass Incaaccoyo Star, Peruvian Javier, & Acero Marka's Rockamundo, plus his quality fleece characteristics, Guski is the perfect pick to add these rare genetics to your herd. Alpacas4Pets description: Gus is a real character. I imagine he's fairly gentle as males go. Once he settled in to his new farm here, he immediately took the role as protector of the females! He may not be as big, but he is as good as sounding off the alarm as any llama would be. He is alert to whatever I do around the farm to make sure everything is okay for "his herd". He is a joy to watch and a real gentleman with the ladies.
