Kendall Creek Farms is pleased to announce our 50% ownership of Tres Equis! Congratulations to Rosehaven Alpacas for their acquisition as well, we look forward to a lasting partnership on this prepotent male. Treasure Valley’s Tres Equis is the son of Snowmass XXXtreme, and one of only 3 gray males ever produced by this legendary Snowmass line. A 5-time banner winner, Tres is a large framed male with spot on conformation supporting a fleece that is dense, fine, and maintains an incredible handle for a 11-year old breeding male. How very impressive that this male is producing champions and exhibiting relevance to our industry’s gray community at the age of 11!! Tres is certainly passing these prepotent genetics on to his progeny. Examples include, Rosehaven’s Triple Threat, a gray male having won 23 banners and 4 Judges Choice awards; and a Tres girl that won the gray female Color Champion at the 2019 AOA International Fleece show. These are just two examples of the 87% of his offspring that have been shown and placed in the ribbons. And, since we are going for the gray here, then you will be pleased to know that when bred to a gray dam, Tres has thrown gray 78% of the time! Please Contact us about breedings, his offspring that are for sale, and girls that will come with breedings to this champion maker!!

Here we have a very nice fawn girl that just happens to be a gray in disquise. She would actually be considered gray at this point if there was such a thing as gray with a fawn base. But alas, we will just have to bring it out with her first breeding - to gray of course!! Another unique thing about this beauty is her name. You might think that I made a typo but it is truly Ella Ella. We did this to honor both of her grandmothers, Estrella and Canderella; get it....Both are worth mentioning here. Estrella is a fawn that is the basis of a serious gray line for Kendall Creek. She is a Champion that has produced multiple Champions for us and that of course includes gray. Canderella is the dam of Candyman (a notorious stealth gray maker) and multiple Champion. these lines are packed I tell ya. Champion parents, champion gray brother, champion gray sister, gray aunts and uncles; oh my!!!! Ella has the perfect frame and coverage, as do all of her relations. They are all just cookie cutter likenesses of the ideal alpaca. Massive bone with coverage to the toes. Block heads that all look like the most macho males you've seen, even on the girls. Ella's fleece is has a tight zipper crimp style with match-stick bundling. She has good fineness and is very uniform. Her color is not uniform, as I alluded to previously. It is an indefinite tri-color fawn that is perfect for going gray, but it wasn't so perfect for showing. Ella was only shown once and was kept in her tough fawn class in 6th place because, as the judge put it; 'her outstanding characteristics that needed to be recognized in spite of her very unusual fiber color, but I think you know what you have here' . And so with that in mind, she has been bred to Treasure Valley's Tres Equis for a cria in the fall of 2018. 2018: Boom!! As anticipated, we have our first gray cria from Ella Ella, and she is a stunner!! KCF Empress is a smooth medium silver gray that is just what the stork ordered! Go Tres Equis!! SOLD - Thank you Breezy Meadows Alpacas!! 2019: Bred back to Tres Equis again for 2020! And we have another beauty! Although not a gray, Blush is certainly a gray wanna-be. It's basically a carbon copy of Ella, and we think that is a very good thing. Another easy way to a quality gray. SOLD - Thank you Windcrest Alpacas!! 2020: We are liking the results with Tres, so guess what, here we go again! And in 2021 we welcome KCF Estevan! A classic gray boy that has all the goods!! Getting ready to post his page on the site next so you can see for yourself! SOLD - Thank you Meadowgate Alpacas! 2021: You know, when you got a good thing going, why would you do something different? Back to Tres she goes for another Rockstar in 2022!!

STF Skywalker comes to us in partnership by way of our dear friends at Sugartown Farms in Ellicottville, NY. Thank you Timm and Helen for letting us in on the wonderful male. This boy is producing exactly what we had hoped for, and in a wonderful variety of colors, including gray!! STF SKYWALKER is a phenomenal male from a 10X COLOR CHAMPION Snowmass XXXtreme Daughter - STF Sassafras. SKYWALKER'S DAM - STF Sassafras represents all that is Elite in the Color Alpaca World. Her Sire - Snowmass XXXtreme is one of the most PREPOTENT colored studs to grace the Alpaca breeding world. XXXtreme's progeny are nothing short of spectacular. Sassafras has won 10 CHAMPIONSHIP Banners. Sassafras won the COLOR CHAMPIONSHIP at the Northeastern 2011. Judge Jude Anderson said: "I have a Juvenile female here in this championship position I would recommend you take a look at. Her fleece is very bright when you open it up, with excellent density and, uniformity in to the belly - not just of the style, but of the fineness across the blanket. She is a lovely package – excellent density.” Sassafras then won the Reserve CHAMPIONSHIP at PAOBA. Judge Ken Hibbits said: "She is really, really impressive - a fleece that opens up and pops when you break it open. She has great uniformity and great character, she is very correct. One thing you notice when you open it up it tends to break beautifully within all those staples, showing that fineness, showing that architecture, and that’s what we want. She’s not bad to look at either is she? She is a beautiful girl, perfectly conformed." Sassafras won Reserve CHAMPIONSHIP at Empire. Judge Jill MacLeod said: “What I really like about this girl is that she is very fine, very even, she has great uniformity in all respects – and that did her very well today. Even her primary fibers are very very fine throughout that fleece and I think this is the kind of fleece that will maintain fineness throughout a lifetime.” In awarding her the Championship at MAPACA, Judge Helen Humphries cited Sassafrass as the complete package, noting of her fineness, consistency and buttery soft - dreamy fleece. SKYWALKER'S SIRE - MFI Peruvian Armoire is a Magical Farms progeny: "We have held on to MFI Peruvian Armoire as a future replacement for his incredible sire - Peruvian Jeronimo who produced so many outstanding colorful champions for Magical Farms over the years. Armoire sports an elite fleece...a georgeous fawn fleece that is dense, soft with high frequency, high amplitude crimp and extremely consistent from head to toe.He has a true to alpaca phenotype, flawless conformation and an excellent presence. Armoire has these legends in his pedigree: Accoyo Peruvian Timoteo, Peruvian Amadeus, Peruvian Jeronimo, and Peruvian Guellermo." SKYWALKER has an Insanely Bright, Fine, Dense and Organized Fleece with a high frequency crimp. His fleece is extremely consistent throughout and he is showing a great propensity at passing this along!
