Although Now Deceased , we have chosen to leave Haya's listing available as he played such a huge part in establishing our herd. His children and Grandchildren Grace our pastures, and he will forever be our Macho! The rarest of the rare of alpacas. Full Peruvian, Accoyo lines, light silver grey, Harlequin, Appaloosa, with a solid blanket and appaloosa spotting in all the best places. His stature defines the word herdsire, standing at 5'2" weighing 227 lbs, and perfectly proportioned - Haya is all business! He is a many times over proven male and has quickly proven to make gorgeous babies! Haya's Grandsire is the famous PPeruvian Pluro G4571. Accoyo Pluro,A superior sire, was bred by Don Julio and used in his "Majada De Plantel", his best herd. This is no small honor in my book. Haya would make Don Julio proud.In the short time PPeruvian Accoyo Pluro was in the US, he produced many exceptional offspring making him one of the top herdsires in the country. Then early in his breeding career he was sold to an Australian investor and was one of Australia's top herdsires. Accoyo Pluro's offspring are known for their incredible fiber and coverage, in addition to large bone. Pluro is now deceased(2003), making his genetics very rare. Haya passes on his excellent conformation & upright presence to his crias--they have a lot to stand tall about! With nice crimpy fiber as well as awe. He has produced a wide variety of colored cria including several greys, brown, fawn, black, appaloosas & replicas of himself, with more Harlequin greys! The judge commented at the AOBA National show on his excellent proportion and beautiful head. "He is such a stunning male!" He is the King of our pastures for sure. On his 10th birthday in 2011 we closed Haya to outside breedings to protect our investment in this one of a kind male.

Top of the line foundation female. Ameerah is a medium Rose Grey Harlequin Appaloosa. When we saw her coloring and her pedigree the 2 were just too much to pass her up. She sports and incredibly super crimpy 6"+ staple to her ultra fine fleece. Her conformation is spot on and it is no surprise when you look at her background. DAUGHTER OF 8X WINNING MALE MARY'S ACCOYO BENTLY!! Her pedigree is just what we were looking for to add to our already heavily Accoyo lined herd. This gal brings us some new additions and great standbys like : Accoyo Auzengate Accoyo Camilio Accoyo Pucara Accoyo Royal Fawn Peruvian Bueno NGG Lionel Peruvian Alpamayo Her Grandsire, Camillio's Accoyo Endurance won his first Get of Sire with only 5 cria on the ground. His son sold, as a juvenile for $277,000 in 2007. The list of award winning relatives on Ameerah could fill the page, From both sides of her pedigree you see multiple national winning male and female cria. Ameerah gave us a beautiful Harlequin Grey Female Tic Tac in 2013 and another harlequin female in 2015 ( Kuska itzall in the roux) Make that 3 Harlequin Girls in a row!!! see Kuska Mepos. Then she does it again with a fantastic Harlequin Male in 2018! Bred to Kuska Peruvian Domino for 2019!

Spellbound is a two-time judges choice fleece winner, passing on these qualities to her offspring. She is also the dam to the one and only SpringToo Skyfall! Marquis has a perfectly distributed array of spots to share! He has confirmed pregnancies for 2025 crias. Secure your breedings to “Mr. Spotalicious” today!

Description

Tic Tac is the product of two top producing harlequins from the Kuska herd. She carries legendary appaloosa / harlequin genetics on both sides of her pedigree making it very possible that she is homozygous for the appy / harlequin trait. She has had three offspring-- all out of non-appaloosa / harlequin gene carriers. All three of Tic Tac's offspring have expressed-- one as classic appaloosa and two as lovely harlequin appaloosas. Tic Tac's blanket is spotless and her coloration is exquisite. She has spots on her belly and face... a classical harlequin pattern expression. Tic Tac is a large girl. She pushes 200 lbs when not pregnant. Although large, she is easy to handle and the most attentive mother. She has tons of milk and grows them big and healthy. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * 2019: Tic Tac’s first offspring arrived— a beautiful appaloosa out of white male and 2X Judges Choice winner, Springtoo Skyfall. The cria has super bright, dense and bundles of zipper crimp fleece. Congratulations to Plateau Breeze Ranch on their purchase of this beautiful cria! 2021: Tic Tac’s second offspring arrived— a beautiful harlequin appaloosa— Rare Gem Just Smitten. He was born a big healthy 20 lbs. baby. His primary color is fawn which will develop into a lovely grey coloration. His legs, belly, muzzle and tail are full of well-defined black spots. After just a 330 day gestation, he was up, nursing and posing within minutes. This boy has presence galore! He thinks he is "all that" and I am just smitten with him. Will be repeating this breeding. 2022: Tic Tac's third cria has arrived... and she has done it again! Another beautiful harlequin appaloosa-- this time a female. Tic Tac gave birth to a big-bone, color-FULL 16 lbs. female on day 337 (11/19/22). As this is Tic Tac's third appaloosa in a row, we have named her Tic Tac's Hat Trick. 2024: We loved the result of Tic Tac's last two offspring sired by champion FTAF's Privateer, but he was purchased by Mary Miller of Aspen Alpacas. So... for Tic Tac's 2023 breeding, we paired her with our handsome male, Sriracha of Linden Hills. Sriracha is a beautifully conformed male with a very fine, elite fleece. Previously, Tic Tac was paired with Sriracha's sire, Springtoo Skyfall and produced a lovely appaloosa female. 2024 Update: It with a sad heart that we lost service sire, Sriracha of Linden Hills to a bowel torsion. Sriracha was such a sweet and beautiful, elite-fleeced alpaca. This breeding to Tic Tac will be our only offspring produced by Sriracha here on this farm... and on September 4, 2024... he and Tic Tac delivered! We welcome a beautiful, appaloosa female-- Rare Gem Cholula. Cholula has bundled of curls from day 1 and the sweet, calm disposition of both her parents. Thank you dear Sriracha for your legacy cria.
