We are thrilled to offer Michelangelo's Awakening as a herd sire. He is an established sire of show winning off-spring who often produces gray. We can generally count on Awakening to infuse his cria with superb fineness, density, coverage, and gorgeous phenotype.. They are cute as can be, square, and healthy! Awakening tends to produce the color of the dam. As an example, please note the photos of Broken Halo and his fleece. He is a fine example of what Awakening produces. We co-own Awakening with Mark and Mara DeBoe of River Falls Wisconsin, Wibotawot Farm. Show winnings and Judges comments: Awakening does it again at Minnesota Alpaca Expo. 1st place out of a class of 8 dark brown juvie males and a Reserve Championship. Judge Peter Kennedy comments, “At 7 months of age he is beautifully grown, very balanced showing a great level of maturity. He is extremely fine, very well organized, beautiful level of brightness with the level of organization, very uniform in his micron. Beautiful softness of hand, a great deal of density overall.” At AOA Nationals 2014 he took a 1st Place out of a class of 9 dark brown juvenile males. Judge Diana Timmerman comments, "He has a super fine fleece, it has incredible brightness and is very well nourished. It shows excellent architecture throughout and the character extends the length of the staple, it is also evident all the way through and all those characteristics give him great density." At the Railsplitter Alpaca show "Wake" took a 1st place out of a class of 6 brown juvenile males and the Color Championship for brown males. Judge Peter Kennedy commentts, “Showing a great level of maturity for his age with a beautiful level of coverage. Very true to type. The fleece is extremely fine showing excellent amplitude with his high frequency crimp style through his entire blanket and everywhere I looked it was all the same. Very well organized and great density. It is opening up very cleanly and is very bright, with a beautiful soft hand.”

Black Etchings is a gorgeous true black female. She is square and straight with total coverage. Her sire is MFI Peruvian Etched Ice whose sire is Accoyo Titan with Accoyo Elite as her grandsire. Her dam is MFI Brilliance whose sire is 4Peruvian Matador and her dam is Panamerican Buttercup Impl98. Etchings is gentle and gets along with other females. She is easy to handle. She has a beautiful head. Her fleece carries exceptional fineness! Etchings has delivered and nursed her crias with an abundance of rich milk. Etchings puts everything into her cria so we often give her time off between breedings. All I can say about Etching's 2019 cria, is WOW, a gorgeous female cria. Etchings didn't disappoint with her Kodiak cria. Etchings delivered a true black beauty from her pairing with Wolfgang. Etchings is confirmed BVDV negative.

Wolfgang's cria are holding their own in the show ring! We are excited with the consistency that Wolfgang is producing improved fleece, conformation, density, color, and phenotype. Wolfgang is throwing true black and darkening the dam. He is consistently improving the dam. We especially like the robust general health, large strong straight bone structure, highly developed fleece with micro bundling, density, and gorgeous phenotype complete with full face coverage. Color genotype for Wolfgang is EEa1a3. Having an a3 allele has proven consistently to produce that rich blue-black in our herd. It is being passed through multiple generations and they are non-fading true blacks. Wolfgang has no dilution and carries both black alleles. It will be very unlikely that he would produce light offspring and all offspring will cover black. We are excited to have this information to assist in our breeding decisions. We are thrilled to add Wolfgang to our foundation herd. His fleece is exceptional. Wolfgang's conformation and bone structure are spot on. He is a handsome and gentle male. Wolfgang is an outstanding male, the heir apparent to his sire Kodiak. Everything we could have hoped for, uniformity of micron, bundling high-frequency architecture, blue-black color, excellent handle, exceptional phenotype, and outstanding conformation. We are excited to add his lineage which includes; CPeruvian Jaxon, CPeruvian Axtion Jaxon, CPeruvian Celine, AVC AJ's Kodiak, PC Accoyo Mega Tron, AVC 20th Century Fox, Accoyo Zeus, Accoyo Sappho, Accoyo Titan, Snowmass Nova, 6Peruvian Silent Night, Peruvian Black Legend, 6Peruvian Black Lace, Snowmass Andean Night, Snowmass Fineness Maters, Cahuide's Smokey Bear, Snowmass Andean Midnight, Snowmass Nova's Private Reserve XX, Snowmass Satin Reserve XX, Snowmass Black Satin, and Estates Happiness in Harmony. These names are prepotent for producing high-quality fleece, perfect conformation, large strong bone structure, beautiful phenotype, complete coverage, reproductively sound, show winning, healthy offspring. Wolfgang is co-owned with Aimee and Mark of SkyFiber.
