The fleece on this guy - WOW!! Rocky is the offspring of a Crystal Spartan son, Crystal K-O and a NM Beethoven daughter, VAC Beethoven's Vienna. He has absolutely exquisite, high end fleece. A 15.9 micron with an SD of 2.5 and 0.1 over 30! He has incredible density and very tight crimp. The handle of this fleece is out of this world. Rocky is short. His frame is quite solid and put together correctly he is just short. This has caused him to be placed lower in halter classes but the Judges ALWAYS say his fleece is phenomenal and if he were taller he would be standing at the top of the class. He does extremely well in walking fleece classes. I really wish we could have gotten him in more walking fleece shows! He has a beautiful head with fleece coverage in abundance. Rocky is a sweetheart and has been shown in performance class by our Granddaughter. We love this guy and absolutely plan to use him on some of our females. We will choose females of good stature in hopes to keep their size but if we can get this fleece on his offspring..... we will have champions without a doubt. Rocky has been exposed to a couple of females. We are waiting on confirmations of pregnancy. WOW! Rocky was entered into the Michigan International Alpaca Fest at 4 + years old because they needed more fawn males to complete championships. He took a 2nd in the mature halter class and in Walking Fleece - HE TOOK COLOR CHAMPION! The Judge said she was quite impressed with his fleece for a 4 year old male. He scored a 19 out of 20 in Fineness/Handle, a 9.5 out of 10 absence of guard hair and a 9 out of 10 for Character/Crimp! Rocky now has offspring on the ground and he has passed on his elite fleece! UPDATE Rocky's daughter Fight Like A Girl is a Champion!

Primrose is a very stylish alpaca. She has excellent conformation. Her sire Quatrain is a medium rose gray and her dam Rose is a modern rose gray. Primrose should be primed for producing grey offspring. Her fleece is a gorgeous fine maroon. If maroon was still allowed on the ARI Primrose would qualify. She exhibits very nice crimp structure. She is really just a well rounded alpaca. Her lineage is quite impressive with Quatrain, Jeremiah, Jericho, Dakotia and Inca's Ransom as well as Bolivian Vesuvius. Dams on her sires side are not to go unnoticed either with NWA, LTD Jean and Peruvian Honeybelle. Her dams side adds the genetics of Cactus Jack, Jeronimo and Guellermo and Silvio. Lots of color in this ancestry. We feel that Primrose has a future producing finely fleeced gray offspring but she really matches up well with males of any color. She is a solid foundation female with many years of quality production ahead of her. Primrose brought home a blue ribbon from The Illinois Alpaca Show in Grayslake, IL Primrose delivered a beautiful fawn female! This little gal has loads of crimpy fiber on a sturdy frame. Watch for this one in spring shows. Her daughter Fight Like A Girl certainly did not disappoint us in the show ring. She brought home a blue in halter and a blue and Color Champion in Walking Fleece in her first show! The pairing of Primrose and Rocky proved to be a great one so we have repeated a breeding to Rocky. Primrose delivered a stunning little male who appears to be a carbon copy of his Walking Fleece Champion sister Fight Like A Girl!! Primrose has now been bred to E Pluribus Unum! She continues to knock it out of the park with her offspring and we expect a gorgeous cria from this pairing. Primrose continues to produce stellar cria. She delivered a gorgeous male from her pairing with E Pluribus Unum AKA Money! He looks like he is a roan. Definate show quality. We will definately repeat this breeding match! Primrose has earned her right as a star dam on our farm.

Co-Owned with Kern and Rhonda Deschner of Tierra Prometida Alpaca Ranch When is comes to this male right here, he is simply one of a kind. You could not ask for more, the epitome of excellence: Red Granites Alydar By Val D Lsere. There has never been a Grey Alpaca to stir up as much commotion as this one, and probably never will be. For all that have seen and judged this male, he has been represented as the IDEAL standard for grey fleece. The evenness of his fineness and the astounding density and uniformity that is found within his blanket is simply incomparable. It is a very advanced, high-frequency crimp style from skin to tip, rarely seen in his color group. This crimp style continues right down the leg and into his belly area, also running up through the neck all in a very uniform manner. Judges’ have described his fleece as “angel-like and delicate” with “superior uniformity of micron” and carrying the “dangerous combination of fineness and density”. Alydar was shown at one of the highest level shows, Nationals, and took first place as a juvenile, yearling, 2-year-old, and mature male, he also did so at The Futurity, taking a first place as both a yearling and 2-year-old and then moved into the champion circle. He also won the 2021 Futurity Judges' Choice Male & 2023 AOA National Dark Male Supreme Champion trophy. Many juveniles place well the first year but the real test is if they can stand the same position or even better position the following years, and hold onto their exceptional traits. He has a total of 41 Championship banners, 10 Judges' Choice awards, a Supreme Championship, a Grand Champion, and Spirit of the Industry win to his name, not to mention he was named the #1 National High Point Huacaya Male in 2022 & #3 National High Point Huacaya Male in Fleece for 2023. He became the first gray to win the prestigious Futurity Judges’ Choice award & to win a National Supreme Championship trophy, and also became the second gray alpaca to have won over 30 Championship banners. Nothing about him has wavered in his fleece or body in his maturity over the years. Alydar comes from a generation after generation of champion alpacas. His lineage includes Herdsire of the Year winners: VAL D LSERE, MR SIZLIN ROSE, and MATRIX while also including top color producing sires: MATRIX ROSE, CONOPA, VALENTINO, THELONIUS, KIRWIN, CASANOVA, and SIZLIN HOT. Excellence in COLOR in in this males blood!! Alydar's production has been everything we hoped for and more. He has produced every color. His progeny have also won 40+ Championship banners...don't wait on a breeding, he might be closed next time you look!
