Marimba has an outstanding pedigree. Her dam is a daughter of MFI Peruvian Jericho and granddaughter of 5 Peruvian Camelot and her sire is My Peruvian Obsydian. All you need to do is look at her to realize that she has garnered the best from these awesome bloodlines. Marimba’s buttery soft maroon-colored fleece is very fine and equally dense with high frequency crimp all the way out the long stapled locks. She has won many blue ribbons, and a Color Championship. Marimba's offsping have all been spectacular -- all have won blues and most are also Color Champions. Her most recent, Spartan's Silver-Lining has won 6 Color Championships, 7 blue ribbons -- and counting!

Description

Co-Owned with Terry Passanante of Clover Bottom Alpaca Ranch! I watched this guy blow through the show season in 2015 and 2016, championship after championship. A modern grey outshining a typically highly competitive grey class to win over and over again - thirteen times! He won championship classes with 40+ animals in them!! His birth farm, Faraway Farm Alpacas, described him like so: "From the day he was born, we knew this boy was exceptional with his tightly curled popcorn fleece that was gray on the inside and consistently fine, long stapled and with crimp down his legs and under his belly. It wasn’t until his first shearing that his color was fully revealed: a rich dark rose gray." Sired by the amazing Futurity Champion, Crystal Spartan the 2010 Futurity Brown Male Color Champion winner. His dam, Quarry Ridge Marimba, is a Champion herself and has produced champion offspring. Silver Lining has inherited outstanding characteristics from outstanding parents. Silver-Lining has absolutely lived up to his name and continues to wow the judges. His crias have been amazing and are top show winners. We have a handful of his crias for sale from our 2024 birthing class, take a look at them, you will not be disapointed! If you are looking for excellence in Modern Grey or just EXCELLENCE, Silver Lining might be your guy!
