26x champ, incl. '16, '17, '18 AOA Nationals AOA Color Champion in 2016 fleece and in 2017 Halter and Fleece! He has more wins that can be counted, but check his show results below to see his consistency! We had been looking for quite a while for that one special black male to add to our herd in complement to our Dark Secret / Black Maestrom line. Fate smiled on us when we saw Stradivaruius as a juvenile to add to our program. Even in his tui tips, we knew he was the one and acted immediately. Even with our experience and confidence, we could not help be pleased with the confirmation of our opinion by his exceptional show results. A true black herdsire, Stradivarius is a 26x fleece and halter black champion with champion bloodlines in his pedigree which hails back to both Snowmass and Patagonia, through his sire Snowmass Andean Midnight and dam Patagonia's Simone (pivotal farms that were pioneers in the industry). His show wins include AOA National Show Halter Champion, AOA National Show Invited Champion Champion, and 3x AOA National Fleece Show Champion. We have been very selective with breedings to him, closed to outside breedings, to ensure the best case scenarios in most situations for black offspring. From this, 83% of the time he produced black (TB & BB) and 100% of the time, when bred to black dams. When bred to dams of other colors he produced black 43% of the time but darkened the cria 100% of the time. His spectacular offspring include AutumnSun's Aislyn, who won banners at the AOA National Fleece show both as a Juvenile in 2021 for us and as a 2yr old in 2023 for her new owners, Carol and Christian Howard of Cinco C Alpacas and Lynn Edens of Little Creek Alpacas. His son, AutumnSun's Peacekeeper, took a champion placing as a 3 year old breeding stud for his new owners in Austria, Oberstein Alpacas! Both Aislyn and Peacekeeper are making their own beautiful black crias for their new herds. Stradivarius is closed to outside breedings and us only available as service sire for sold ASA alpacas.

Carbonita was a girl that we liked the first time we saw her as a juvenile at The Futurity, but we 'went a different way'. When fortune brought this girl to our attention as an older yearling at an auction, we acted decisively since we knew what she looked like as juvenile. The risk paid off! After winning banners for us, we brought her home and bred her to our Stradivarius. And, again, fortune smiled on us, because their girl is special. Inky black and covered in fine, bundled fiber that is both shiny and dark as night, this girl is one we relished thinking about her future in our our breeding program. But, then fate turned our path as we sold Aislyn to Cinco C's fantastic program with her maiden breeding being to our champion black male Maelstrom. Carbonita was bred back to our champion black Stradivarius to produce beautiful black boy! Carbonita was bred to Estates Sakima's Braxton from Cinco C's Alpacas, and produced a beautiful black boy!

Mystique knocks it out of the park again. Crown Jewel is one of my favorites of the 2022 cria crop. His fleece is buttery soft and fine, with great density, brightness, and staple length. The consistency of the fleece is evident as soon as you touch him. Be sure to check out his histogram report. Crown Jewel is another gorgeous black from Magavin and out of our beautiful Mystique. He won CC in hater and Walking Fleece at his very first show and hasn't stopped since then. This guy is the real deal for sure. We can't wait for him to begin his breeding career. Congratulations to Alpagas de Charlevoix on their purchase of Crown Jewel at the Parade of Champions Auction on 6/1/2024. He now has confirmed pregnancies with crias due in 2025. We are so proud of this beautiful male. He has matured into an absolutely stunning herdsire. Color genotype Ee a1a2 non-grey
