PATAGONIA'S EL GALAN Patagonia’s El Galan has an elegant, soft handle, buttery fleece, and is a strong-boned pure white herdsire that has recently had drop dead crias hit the ground. It is nice to finally select the right breedings for this magnificent male to see his full potential as a sire of champions. El Galan’s progeny truly remind me of what his sire, Patagonia’s Cayo, looked like when he was a juvenile. El Galan’s dam, Patagonia’s Fantasma, has a show record of her own, and is on our foundation herd. El Galan has a nice stature, very crimpy fleece that is remaining soft, bright, and silky. This sire is definitely passing on these wonderful characteristics to his progeny with bundling, beautiful structure, uniformity of micron count and color in their fleece, adding dense, dense fleece and staple length. During the 2017 show season, his stunning juvenile crias have received Color Champion, Reserve Champion, and Blue and Red ribbons. In addition, his daughter Estates Wedding Tapistry was selected as the 2017 ABI Judge's Choice Winner! We couldn't be more pleased!

Congratulations and thank you to Angelina Rice on her purchase of Commander's Pi-Yay! COMMANDER'S PI-YAY Pi-Yay is over 7/8 Peruvian and gorgeous. This little girl is very social and very special. SilverSmith, Peruvian King, Chaccu, Camillio-Accoyo Chimborazo, Allin Capac and Caligula (via Commander) are the big guys in her ancestry. Allin Capac is reported to be half brother to Vengador both being sired by the legendary Shere Kahn. Allin Capac is a major player in the Australian herds genetics. Count the Get of Sires in her background. Wow! Pi-Yay's Dam is Peachy Keen, a lovely peachy colored light fawn. Her maternal grandsire, 5 Peruvian Chaccu, was the 2001 AOBA National Show Blue Ribbon winner in the Get of Sire Class. Chaccu was originally used extensively in the Snowmass Alpacas Breeding Program. Chaccu represents rare blood here in the US as he is from the Puno Region in Peru where very few genetics were released during the imports to the US. Pi-Yay's fleece is super fine, well crimped, very good density and has intense luster. Pi-Yay took a non-sanctioned blue ribbon. This award was granted by a non-alpaca nationally recognized multi-species Fiber Judge, Mark Eidman. It is reported that accompanied by an experienced alpaca fiber educator, Mark was told you rarely find a true bright pure white alpaca fleece and then they opened up Pi-Yays fleece to reveal her exceptionally white, crimpy, bright, fine pencil locks. Shearing Weight 2006: 3lbs @ 9 months of age Wow!1.8 lbs of #2 fleece 4.8T Staple 5 1/2" relaxed Offspring: On 12/2/2010, Pi-Yay presented us with a superb dark brown male sired by Snowmass Andean Midnight.

On 10/27/2012, Pi-Yay gave us a handsome white male sired by GB Judgement. Judgement’s offspring are enhanced with strong bones, dense fleece, and crimp, crimp, and more crimp! On 10/31/2013, Pi-Yay gave birth to a good-looking 16lb dark brown male also sired by Snowmass Andean Midnight. On 10/20/2014, Pi-Yay gave us a light brown female also sired by our Snowmass Andean Midnight. Snowmass Andean Midnight, who offers proven genetics of brightness and handle.
