Call us nuts, but we are offered one of the BEST black Snowmass MR Sizlin Rose offspring ever produced here at Red Granite Ranch at the 2017 Futurity Auction, which he later won the Black Color Championship (Helping his sire win Reserve Herdsire Of The Year) the same year with his new owners the next day and our black boy got Reserve. Saying we lost a good one, was a huge understatement here. Red Granites Innsbruck is a True Black male out of Our Peruvian Fashionista, a True Black multi blue ribbion and banner winning dam. His Sire, Snowmass MR Sizlin Rose, is a 12X Champion, including the 2012 Brown Male Futurity & Brown Male AOBA National Color Champion. MR Sizlin Rose was also the 2016 Futurity Large Breeder Division, Herdsire of the year -- later won the 2017 Futurity Large Breeder Division, Reserve Herdsire of the year Dark-Colored Offspring. Innsbruck placed first at the 2016 Futurity as a juvenile, to add it was his first show. Innsbruck has a well-organized and uniform, dense, fine fleece. He has a high-frequency medium amplitude crimp style which extends down the sides of his legs. The individual staple structure is made up of smaller well-defined staples. Innsbruck's conformation is true and strong with heavy bone structure like all of the Sizlin Rose lines. He was the perfect male to introduce into our Black/Dark Breeding program and would have -- no doubt -- created stunning crias with many of our dams but hes now working for his new owners and creating some fine babies. His true black daughter is a Judges' Choice winner and took home the 2021 Futurity Black Color Championship win, and she already has multiple championship wins under her belt. Congrats to Fiber Meadow Alpacas on those wins, by the way. We are very proud of how this male is representing our Ranch and we couldn't be happier for everyone! He originally sold to Stellar Alpacas, LLC at the 2017 Futurity, but was later aquired by ALPACAS of Tualatin Valley, LLC a few years later and they now co-own him with LaFinca Alpacas. So congrats to those farms!

Silhouette is continuing to produce champions, the pairing of her and Innsbruck produced for Fiber Meadows: 2021 Judges Choice True Black female Brooke as well as the 2021 Futurity Black female yearling color champion and has 6 color championship banners. Brooke has been sold to Irish Meadows Alpacas and we look forward to see what she produces for them. Silhouette gave birth to a stunning Medium Fawn male Kentucky Bulliet who now has 8 championships. She also gave birth to a full Defiance sister Chantilly Lace who has 2 championships. Currently bred to Snow Diamond INFINITY & THEN SOME We are proud to have added Silhouette to our herd from Snow Diamond Alpacas, she has not disappointed. The star of our herd, Silhouette is a truly stunning dark fawn beauty with unbelievable fiber. Rarely does fleece top the charts in character, density, fineness and crimp all at the same time, but this girl's fleece has it all. Evidently, the judges agree, awarding her eight banners, 16 blue ribbons, a Judge's Choice and other assorted awards before she retired from the show ring. Silhouette's success in the show ring is backed by statistics. Check out these fiber stats for a dark animal more than five years of age and bearing crias: 19.7, 3.9, 20.0 and 1.6. Wow! In addition to her impressive histogram numbers, Silhouette's skin biopsy shows that she has 84 follicles per sq. mm of skin, indicating extremely dense fiber. To put that number in perspective, Dr. Norm Evans, who analyzed the skin biopsy, wrote, "the average for Huacaya's is about 39.75," and "superior breeding stock that seem to win in the show ring is 55-60+." Silhouette's biopsy also shows a ratio of secondary to primary fibers of 18 to 1, compared to the average S/P ratio in the alpacas that Dr. Evans has evaluated of 9 to 1. Silhouette is the daughter of multi-color champion MFI Peruvian Donovan and three-time color champion APP Peruvian Phlirtation, as well as the granddaughter of the famous Augusto and great granddaughter of the revered Royal Fawn. Silhouette's first breeding was to 5X Multiple Champion SA Peruvian Oracle, and that pairing produced a fabulous true black male, Snow Diamond Sgt Pepper. Sgt Pepper, also a multiple champion like his parents, sold to breeders in Austria. Silhouette's 2013 cria is another exceptional male, Spellbound, by Snowmass Matrix Madness. Spellbound is her first light-colored cria, and he is a stunner, measuring up to his genetics with these stats: 14.9, 2.8, 17.5, 0.1.
