Brokered for Alpacas of Marin in Nicasio, California! COLOR CHAMPION!! Stormcat is VERY black (3 of his 4 grandparents are black!)--it's late summer, and his fleece is Blue-Black--it actually looks like black velvet! He has a long long staple, a very bright fleece with pleasing medium crimp and organized structure. Very big bone on a correct, compact frame, with a level topline and fleece all the way THRU his toes. He has a teddy bear head that is so appealing on huacayas, with a good bite, and a pleasing personality that is worth breeding for, aside from everything else! Stormcat’s pedigree is a "who's who" of names – Accoyo Camilio, Pperuvian Guellermo, CPeruvian Jaxon as an impressive sampling. His sire is a 4x Champ with retained fineness in his fleece – at 8 years old he was still holding a 22 micron fleece – this is a heritable trait! Sire Axtion Jaxon is known for throwing dark color and grey, and Stormcat has EVEN MORE black in his heritage. Stormcat's crias are on the ground--a BRIGHT fawn out of fawn, and a fabulous bay black (with a silver nose!) out of a light fawn dam. His third cria, a dark brown girl, is clearly improved from her dam--she has bright, finely crimped, consistent and organized fleece, and an adorable conformation--she won 2 championships plus numerous blue ribbons and sold at a year of age. There's also a lovely black girl who has taken 2 Championships, and a black male who took a blue ribbon his first time out-- and more to come. In addition to passing on his dark genetics, Stormcat seems to pass on his perfect, compact conformation and head, fineness (for black), good growth in the crucial first 6 months, and outrageously long and luxuriant eyelashes! BREAKING NEWS: EACH of Stormcat's five crias for Alpacas of Marin has taken home a blue ribbon in halter competition their first time in the ring, and 2 of the 5 (Chukulati and her full sister Iquique) have taken color championships their first time out! WHOO-HOO!! Stormcat placed 3rd of 11 in very, very tough competition for the Dark/Mixed Get of Sire Class at the 2013 SWRAS! We are absolutely thrilled to have him place behind Amber Autumns' Eclipse Alyst and Marquam Hill's Snowmass Trilogy--Stormcat placed above outstanding herdsires that are practically "household names"! Stormcat has made the rounds of West Coast Alpacas ranches over the years, but he has finally come to his "real" home at Alpacas of Marin in the North San Francisco Bay area--west of Petaluma and Novato. We have Stormcat and his champion True Black son, Torrefacto. We figure we will sell one of them and be thrilled to keep the other. We have a lot of Stormcat offspring now, so it's time to sell off either him or his son. As of December, 2013, 8 of Stormcat's 11 offspring for us are BLACK, and he has several grey offspring at outside ranches.

Having lost to Derwydd Peruvian Inti-Siqay (aka "Suzy") several times in the show ring, I was honored to be able to buy her at the 2008 AOBA auction! She is a light fawn female with a well-balanced medium frame. She has a dark fawn spot on her right front leg--some would say she is dark fawn with a large light fawn spot. She certainly can pass dark genetics, as demonstrated by her multichampion TB son, Torrefacto! Suzy's pedigree is outstanding--her sire is Derwydd Peruvian Inti-Sapa, producer of many champion offspring, and her dam is an Accoyo Vengador daughter with several champion crias. Suzy has that "in your face" crimp and definition of bundles that is sooo sexy! It has won her important championships in halter AND fleece competition. She is DENSE, with bright fleece. Look at her award-winning offspring--OH! And see that she can produce BLACK...and SILVER GREY!! She is an excellent mother and was bred again to our black champion male, Dundee's AJ Stormcat--sire of her multi champion son,Torrefacto. Suzy is spitting off now from her breeding to Stormcat! That means a cria in early July, 2018!
