Grand River Columbo is a gorgeous son of Rincon Cloud. We purchased him from Whistler's Glen and Coffee Pot farms in Ohio to bring some rare gray genetics to our farm and the Midwest. He has put some stunning cria on the ground for those two farms as well as their customers. His fleece is holding the crimp structure very well for a breeding male. It is quite consistent throughout his entire frame. His fineness is incredible and he is dense, dense, dense. Really a well rounded alpaca in a gray fleece. His disposition is wonderful and his head is beautiful. Ricon Cloud brings Crescent Moon's Rayo Del Sol, and Danko to the genetic mix as well as an incredible female in Camana's Snowy River. In addition to Rincon Cloud, Columbo's dam brings Dark Shaddow. These are highly sought after, impressive genetics. Any farm with a gray program should be giving Columbo serious consideration. Serious breeders know the Cloud line and understand it's value in breeding for gray. We brought him home and Jim Shaw, Barb Bernardi and Bruce Bernardi of Prairie Rose Alpacas were impressed enough to purchase half interest in him! Come take a look at him. You really need to see his fleece! He has thrown grey from brown and black dams. Columbo kids are doing well in the ring for us as well as customers who have bred to Columbo. Judges have commended his cria for excellent coverage from ears to toes, bright fleece and excellent handle. We are just in LOVE with our Columbo son Spittin Image! He is a complete package and is showing well for us. Keep and eye on him! Another gray offspring from Columbo! She is a gorgeous, robust female out of a white dam! Proudly co-owned with Prairie Rose Alpacas.

Primrose is a very stylish alpaca. She has excellent conformation. Her sire Quatrain is a medium rose gray and her dam Rose is a modern rose gray. Primrose should be primed for producing grey offspring. Her fleece is a gorgeous fine maroon. If maroon was still allowed on the ARI Primrose would qualify. She exhibits very nice crimp structure. She is really just a well rounded alpaca. Her lineage is quite impressive with Quatrain, Jeremiah, Jericho, Dakotia and Inca's Ransom as well as Bolivian Vesuvius. Dams on her sires side are not to go unnoticed either with NWA, LTD Jean and Peruvian Honeybelle. Her dams side adds the genetics of Cactus Jack, Jeronimo and Guellermo and Silvio. Lots of color in this ancestry. We feel that Primrose has a future producing finely fleeced gray offspring but she really matches up well with males of any color. She is a solid foundation female with many years of quality production ahead of her. Primrose brought home a blue ribbon from The Illinois Alpaca Show in Grayslake, IL Primrose delivered a beautiful fawn female! This little gal has loads of crimpy fiber on a sturdy frame. Watch for this one in spring shows. Her daughter Fight Like A Girl certainly did not disappoint us in the show ring. She brought home a blue in halter and a blue and Color Champion in Walking Fleece in her first show! The pairing of Primrose and Rocky proved to be a great one so we have repeated a breeding to Rocky. Primrose delivered a stunning little male who appears to be a carbon copy of his Walking Fleece Champion sister Fight Like A Girl!! Primrose has now been bred to E Pluribus Unum! She continues to knock it out of the park with her offspring and we expect a gorgeous cria from this pairing. Primrose continues to produce stellar cria. She delivered a gorgeous male from her pairing with E Pluribus Unum AKA Money! He looks like he is a roan. Definate show quality. We will definately repeat this breeding match! Primrose has earned her right as a star dam on our farm.
