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!

The SWEETEST GIRL! Solstice has remarkable fleece character and density. She has competed really well in fawn, getting a couple of second places at NWSS in competitive light classes. Both her sire (Justified) and her Dam (Satin) did their best by this female. Solstice was bred to Silver Lining in 2018 and had a gorgeous black boy. We named him Bo Sean. I am REALLY looking forward to taking him into the ring. With all the events of the last couple of years - we didnt do very well accomplishing that task. Bo Sean will be entering the ring this spring as an almost three year old. When you have a TB male with this degree of fineness and character - its a must. More to come Solstice was bred to Bomber in 2020 and had a rose grey blue eyed boy who is a total trip. Strangest blanket pattern - he appears brown on a significant white background but his bonnet is clearly rose grey. We named him Sly Fox because he is... a Sly fox. Very silly guy who is developing nicely. Solstice was bred back to Man of Mystery - that combination is likely to be earth shattering. Her density and character to his extreme density fineness character and well - just everything he has to offer... If we get a harlequin out of that pairing - watch out WORLD. And we did!! A female. And she has spots. And her fleece - its so dense I cant get to skin. And and and...... We are going to repeat this breeding in Spring 2023; well because we can! I just adore this female.
