At 8 months old, Ringo wowed the judge at his first show, the Southern Select in Tennessee. He came in 1st in his class of 14, and went on to win Reserve Championship. He gained another Blue Ribbon in April at the North American, winning 1st of 14. What is amazing about this exceptional little fawn boy is his sire, Orlando Cloud, is a grey! There is a good chance he could go on to produce grey in his offspring. Ringo Cloud is a top quality male with strong bloodlines including Orlando Cloud, Dom Lucilio and Royal Fawn. See his early histogram at left with 100% Comfort Factor. His dam's first cria is Tamarindo, another exeptional male. Ringo has shiny, crimpy, dense fleece from nose to toes, and he has the "Look at me" presence that sets him apart. Orlando has over 40 crias on the ground, and in one year of showing, they have won over 40 top ribbons across the country. Ringo will be ready for his new owners to show next year. He is co-owned with Cherry Run Farm. For more photos, details, and e-mail video, please contact Nancy or Jeff and Beth.

Sold to A.L. Paca Farm, Doug and Denise Caldwell. Thank you, Doug and Denise, and congratulations on your purchase of this exquisite female Tuscan daughter! This is a cria to die for! When we bred our multiple champions Zsa Zsamora and Tuscan Gold, we knew we were strengthening elite fleece traits from both sides of the pedigree - Tuscan's trademark of extreme brightness, silky handle and defined, elite fleece bundles that each then separate into tiny fingers of crimpy fiber. Toscana embodies all that we envisioned in this breeding. She has total body coverage, a fabulous head, and attitude and presence as well, gifts from both parents. Her pedigree is a virtual Who's Who of the alpaca gene pool. Mom is a Zephyrus (Royal Fawn) daughter out of a Caligula daughter. Dad is by MFI Brock (Augusto son) with Leon in the lineage and dad's dam is a Starr Khan daughter with Hemingway in the tail female line. Upright, bright, and curious, she is cathcing everyone's eye, including the judges who have placed her well in spite of being the youngest in her classes. Wouldn't she be a fabulous addition to your show string and breeding program? With Toscana, we are offering the very best from our ranch. She will be available for purchase at the 2009 AOBA NATIONAL AUCTION, so be sure to bid on her either in person, via the internet or over the phone, but DON'T LET HER GET AWAY! SHE'S A DEFINITE WINNER!
