Want to spice things up abit? This is the guy that could do just that. True black Diamante son with tan stripes, Wings of Fire is that special herdsire for black breeders or fancy breeders. Amazingly DENSE bright fleece, soft handling as well. Will he produce brindle, pattern, or solid black offspring? It's still anyone's guess! He has his first cria crop on the ground and we couldn't be more thrilled. We have experience breeding stripes and brindle fleeces and believe he can certainly make cria that are striking and beautifully fleeced. His first cria consist of the following: marroon/black striped female, roan male, solid black male, light silver grey male, fawn/grey patterned male. All fleeces are beautifully crimped and very dense. Most of these will be offered for sale and will appear on our sales list soon! Standing at Dancing Horse Farm through the Fall of 2024

Description

We first saw this gorgeous alpaca as a cria at a farm in Virginia when we were fairly new to alpacas. We honestly could not believe that her striking striped pattern could be real, and passed on the purchase. Ever since that day, I have often thought of her and over the years have wondered what ever happened to her. We began a long term study into pattern genetics and agreed that it would be great to perform genetic testing on several wildly patterned alpacas we own and of course Ripple came up in conversation many times. Three years ago, we began a difficult and frustrating journey to track her down. Her owner at the time we saw her a s a cria was no longer a breeder and the marketplace that we originally saw her on was no longer published on the internet. We did sort of remember her name and after searching her in the AOA database and many phone calls with dead end leads, we were able to track down her owner! It took 2 years of negociations, but Ripple finally came home to us; nearly 10 years after our first encounter with her! Some things are just meant to be! She is everything we had remembered; a dense beauty with that unique striping pattern on a solid correct frame. We couldn't be happier with her. Ripple was quickly bred, and to our utter excitement, she delivered a striped male cria. He is not as loudly striped as his mom, but striped nonetheless. "Ripley" has matured nicely and has earned a spot on our Jr Herdsire row. Look for him in the showring! In 2023, Ripple delivered an absolutely gorgeous MF roan male cria sired by Accoyo America Polar Shadow. Oh, the fleece on that little boy! She is currently bred to our black and fawn striped herdsire, Royal Wings of Fire for a Fall 2024 cria. YeeHaa!
