Previously Co-Owned with Crescent Moon Ranch. Crescent Moon's Shiftin Gears; like his name, this Stud was an ELITE male who shifted things into gears, with PERUVIAN & ACCOYO genetics to produce fine superior heavy-fleeced alpacas. He was a direct son of 6Peruvian Accoyo Elite 5057 crossed with a Full Peruvian, Peruvian Geronimo G187 daughter to give him the consistency in his fineness over a touch of a heavy fleece weight that has weighted 14 pounds in 2010. He is one of great looks on top of his beautiful fleece. He was judges twice under the amazing Julio Sumar and placed very well. When having the chance to partner with Crescent Moon Ranch (Debbie & Scott Miller) to co-own this multi-champion superstar back in 2010 we could not turn the opportunity down. Its was not everyday you got your hands on a Peruvian/Accoyo male who is a direct son of 6Peruvian Accoyo Elite. His stud fee's were offered for $7,500..... Crescent Moon's Shiftin Gears was the epitome of genetic excellence, whose legacy has sadly ended on February 15, 2021. Crescent Moon & Red Granite Ranch made an incredibly tuff decision to put Shiftin down after we found his femur had shattered and was not fixable. Shiftin's progeny excelled in the show ring, earning championship banners across the U.S., including AOBA Nationals and the Futurity. His offspring proved to be the best in fleece weight, brightness, fineness, density, and consistency. We are very glad to have a few of his lead female and male offspring locked into our herd. Shiftin made a HUGE impact in the industry and we are very proud to be a part of this males legacy. Rest easy Shifty.

When we saw this beautiful female we knew she had what it took, and what we saw is exactly what we had gotten! Every single cria from Batista is as predictably gorgeous as the next no matter who we have bred her too. The quality she produces is outstanding! Here 2019 progeny, Red Granites Bracken By Val D Lsere took home the 2021 AOA National White Invited Reserve Champion banner! Her 2015 progeny, Red Granites Batie (Sired by Crescent Moon's Shiftin Gears) is a two-time champion beige female, and is our last Shiftin Gears daughter that we have kept!

Red Granites Casper By Val D Lsere -- the highest white/light developed fleece by Red Granites Val D Lsere. This male has it all as far as World Classic white, colored, and imported genetic lines, ones concerned, over five generations of them on each side of his pedigree. A representation of many years of selective breeding and in this case the accumulation of the very best of the very best. An 16-time Champion, Fleece Best Crimp, Fleece Best Brightness & Fleece Judges' Choice WHITE male. PERUVIAN LANCASTER, ACCOYO GRAND TRIUMPH, PERUVIAN CONAN, BEETHOVEN, HIGHLAND CHIEFTAIN, on the Maternal side. QUECHUA, MR SIZLIN ROSE, MATRIX, MATRIX ROSE, CONOPA XXX, ACCOYO PLANTEL, SIZLIN HOT, INFINITY, PERUVIAN CASANOVA, ACCOYOCUSANI, DOM TIMBO on the Paternal side. This is precisely what the market is looking for in terms of World Classic colored genetics and something we are concentrating very hard at reproducing and it is quite rare and very exciting to have them in one alpaca, let alone all of Casper's full siblings. Casper's full-sister, Red Granites Cinnamon By Val D Lsere is a multi-champion and multi-judges' choice winner, who sold to a Belgium Breeder in 2020. His younger full-brother, RGR Colo Lsere By Val D Lsere took top honors as being awarded the 2023 AOA National Show White Male Color Champion The fleece that Casper carries is beyond words can explain. The amount of fineness, brightness, density, and uniformity that sits on his body frame is amazing. The only way we can describe his fleece for those of who have not viewed him is he has merino fleece qualities, the high frequency fleece structuring with the blinding brightness and unbelievable amount of density, all in matchstick size staples. These amazing fleece qualities are what have brought this male to the top of his class at every show. Casper was awarded the 2021 US Futurity White Male Color Champion banner and was awarded the AOA National Show Fleece Show White Male Reserve Champion banner, being beat by .5 in length. Even further, Casper is a 2-time Spirit of the Industry winner in Fleece - under two different judges'! We never expected a male of this caliber to be white considering we are predominantly color breeders, so we are very excited to see what the rest of this males future holds and can not wait to share it with the Alpaca Industry! Casper has a genotype of eeAa2, meaning he can produce all colors, including black (if bred correctly).
