Drogon is the son of banner winning parents, FWD Kubla Kahn and Absolute Lady Godiva. His Grand Sire, The Aga Kahn is 11X championship banner winner, 5X Get-of-Sire winner. He is descended from Shere Khan-- possibly the most famous herdsire in Peru, who sired the Vendagor / Capac line. His dam, "Diva" is rare maroon with a pedigree packed with grey genetics. Drogon is a favorite amongst the ranch visitors. He is super friendly and has an entertaining personality. He has beautiful coverage and an eye-catching phenotype. He has a cute teddy bear head with tiny fuzzy ears. He loves fruit and will follow you around in hopes of getting to nibble on his favorites-- figs and bananas! Drogon's first year fleece was stunning dark silver grey with "orange" tips. It was handspun into a spectacular yarn. Congratulations to Alpaca Rainbow Ranch of Colorado Springs, Colorado who are now co-owners of this herdsire. Drogon will be splitting his time between Colorado and California. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * Update, Drogon now has three gorgeous offspring on the ground... including a handsome modern grey son out of a white dam!

This girl has the makings of a stud female! And she has the sweetest of personality to top off all the other important stuff. I originally purchased Marshmallow for a client that had to backed out of the deal at the last minute. When Marshmallow arrived... I was ecstatic! She weighed in at 150 lbs. at 14 months of age and was eager to start breeding! Once she settled in, she was bred once (her maiden breeding), got pregnant, and produced a beautiful male. She has been a perfect first time mom, plenty of milk and attentive. showing signs of being ready for her maiden breeding... not surprising as she weighed in at 150 lbs. at 14 months of age! This girl can go so many different directions from a breeding program perspective. Her maternal sister is utilized by Kuska Alpacas in their appaloosa program. Marshmallow has the added benefit on her sire's side of adding some relatively rare appaloosa genetics... Hmmm... On December 9, 2019 Marshmallow was bred and after one breeding is behavior testing positive for pregnancy. This girl is just oh so easy! As Marshmallow's sire is an appaloosa, her current breeding decision was to go for the appy! She was bred to the wildly spotted harlequin appaloosa, Apache Gentlemen. Apache's first offspring arrived in 2019... and talk about beautiful and color?! He threw 100 percent appaloosas and harlequins out of all non-gene carrying dams. Needless to say, we are very excited about combining these two pedigrees. UPDATE: November 10, 2020. Marshmallow delivered a lovely spotted appaloosa! He is a strong 17 lb boy that was up and nursing in just minutes. Marshmallow is an easy birther and fabulous mum! If looking for a solid foundation female with wonderful density, fineness, character AND BRIGHT white fleece, Marshmallow is one to consider. She has a pedigree full of champions... ACCOYO PPPERUVIAN AUGUSTO 6009, ACCOYO PPPERUVIAN YUPANQUI 6018, ACCOYO PPERUVIAN PLURO G4571, A PERUVIAN ACCOLADE This girl will add power of pedigree and tons of super fleece to any program.

Description

UPDATE: Congratulation to Wren and Cannon of Fort Joy Alpacas in Arkansas on their purchase of Rare Gem Niraja (formerly known as Boy Bob). Niraja has a big future ahead of him as his new owners plan to show him in 2021 and then add him to their stud row. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * Niraja's maternal grand-dad is the lovely appaloosa, Carmel Casanova. And his dad is the handsome modern grey, Rare Gem Drogon. We were hoping for some spots or a modern grey, but got a sweet, loving fading fawn instead. He is phenotypically perfect (true eye-candy!) and eats pellets from your hand. On April 21, 2020, Boy Bob was sheared and his fiber is truly lovely! He weighed 65 pounds on April 27, 2020 (~ 5 months old). As of mid-May, we have started him on his "day-weaning"-- away from his mom and he is doing great.
