Enterprise cria... criated to amaze! DRUM ROLL, PLEASE! Enterprise has now produced a true black full Accoyo son -- make that two TBs to his credit. You should see his babies! You're gonna want to breed your girls to him--his cria are really extraordinary. And... they range in color from white to fawn to brown to BB and TB. He has even surprised us with silver grey! There is no limit to the possibilities. It's all about "lingering fineness" and he has just given new meaning to it. 2008--17.8/3.2/18.0/0.5 2009--19.5/3.6/18.7/0.6 2010--20.6/3.5/16.8/0.7 2011--19.0/3.1/16.4/0.7 2012--21.6/3.6/16.6/1.5 2013--22.4/4.2/18.6/3.5 We had searched far and wide to find a dark colored full Accoyo male to add to our breeding program; and it couldn't be just any dark Accoyo male. Our criteria were pretty stringent. Correct conformation was a given, along with a perfect bite; genetics had to be some of the best in the industry. His fiber had to be super fine but he had to have remarkable density and a long staple length--it's not always easy to find all three characteristics co-existing in the same animal. And, it had to be radiantly bright with tight crimp. Not only all that, but he couldn't share the same bloodlines as most of our females. We were able to find all these qualities in this young male. So it is with great delight that we welcomed Accoyo Enterprise to our breeding program. He has already proven that he has a continued great future in our Accoyo breeding program. His fleece is characterized by exquisite independent bundling and brightness with a sharply defined crimp that extends to the belly and head; and a full topknot that resembles a mushroom! The best example of this amazing male's production is AOV Accoyo Eros. He's already been awarded 8 blues and 5 championships at a little over a year of age! Eros sold at the recent Breeders Edge Auction and was the second highest selling alpaca out of 77. $1500 for boarded breeding.

Accoyo Lily has been a cornerstone of our foundation herd. Her traits are all positive--she catches on one breeding, she births easily, has plenty of milk, is a watchful mom but not nervous AND produces some very outstanding cria. Take a look at her recent August 2012 picture. She still has "it"! Ever heard of "lingering fineness--this is it! Just take a look at her remarkable April 2012 histogram that shows an AFD of 20.3 for an eleven-year-old breeding female. We had Wade Gease come and do a herd evaluation in early December 2011. While we know he was young at the time, Wade thought that Lily's 2011 cria had a very nice developing fleece and was showing show/herdsire potential. Lily has been confirmed pregnant by ultasound to Accoyo America Navigator for a June 2014 cria. Navigator, a DF son of Hemi-Accoyo Nautilus, is a five-time color champion, one-time reserve color champion, one-time fleece color champion and first place get of sire. Now he is siring his own champions. Navigator transfers fineness, fine crimp and long staple length. “Stunning” should be the result of this pairing. breeding program a leg up. Don't gamble by overlooking a proven female--a proven breeder and a proven mom. You should never take these attributes for granted.
