Diamante's crias have been dominating the show ring, winning banner after banner in Black, Brown, Grey and Fawn. Black banner winners include: SA Diamante's Dream Girl, SA Diamante's Hot Tamale, SA Diamante's Tatiana, SA Diamante's Viva Diva, SA Diamante's Black Dynamo, SA Diamante's Black Gold, SA Diamante's Mataro, SA Diamante's Neil Diamond, SA Diamante's Dragonfly, 3DR Snowmass Diamante Athena, APP Phormal Attire, and APP Physical Attraction.

Grey banner winners include: SA Crown Diamond, SA Silver Angel Locks, SA Afterburner, APP OSA Phrench Braid, APP Phorce Phactor and Royal Diamante's Adora Belle. Fawn banner winner: SA Diamante's Bee Velvet - at her very first show! He consistently stamps winning fiber traits of high frequency crimp, density, solidity of lock and uniformity on his offspring. But more importantly, he stamps conformational excellence with true to type head and frame, balance and proportion, level top line, solid bone structure and commanding show presence.

Sometimes you find a hidden gem and boy did we ever! Justice was only shown once as a Juvi, and then got lost in the shuffle as her owners were not showing. We picked her up at 42 months of age and knew looking at her fleece she need to be shown a few times in the spring before she was to be bred. We knew going in that she would be showing in a single entry class but we believed that she should be competitive in the championship class also. In her debut weekend, Justice took Color Champion in both the Railsplitter Alpaca Show under Sharon Loner and the Illinois Alpaca and Fiber Fest under Robin Naseman. Sharon Loner was totally in love with Justice, saying she was the finest in the classes (even finer than the Juvi's!). A few weeks latter in Wisconsin, we experienced an encore performance with Justice taking the Color Championship, once again beating out previous Champions and wowing Judge Peter Kennedy. Justice has perfect phenotype, with a super fine, highly organized fleece. She carries excellent density and character throughout her entire blanket. This girl is our foundation for black in our program! Her crias are HFAR Midnight Serenade, HFAR Midnight Anthem, HFAR Diamante’s Midnight Melody, and HFAR Midnight Crescendo.

June 2023 - Another 7.4# blanket and 3.1# neck sheared - this male consistently is staying in the 10# range of quality, usable fiber even at his age! And bonus - a stunning rose grey offspring of his just hit the ground! May 2022 - Creedence continues to be a fiber machine. 7.5# blanket and 2.8# neck (almost as nice as the blanket!) - probably another 2# in legs shorn but didn't bother weighing that. What a fiber beast! His (all grey so far!) offspring are also doing well against tough competition! Aug 2021 - Creedence's first offspring has hit the ground! A classic dark silver grey son out of a black dam - SCORE!!! May 2021 - Whew - so glad to get that fiber off! Creedence sheared a stunning 7# blanket and 2.7# neck. We can't wait to see how this will be passed on to future generations! January 2021 - We have obtained full ownership of this stunning male. We can't wait to see his offspring hit the ground later this year! _____________________ July 2020 - Creedence has started his breeding career with enthusiasm. We are absolutely thrilled in the manner that Creedence has matured in the past few months. This male was born to be a herdsire. We have multiple confirmed pregnancies (via ultrasound) from this male and we are excited to see the offspring in 2021! He is the real deal. _____________________ Every once in a while a youngster comes along that has it all - curb appeal, style, personality - and has the "goods" to back it up - correct conformation, stunning fleece, and an adorable true-to-type head. Introducing... Creedence. Just one name. Just one look. All his own. This multiple color champion holds his own against tough competition regardless of usually being the youngest in his class - because he has all the traits of a champion - correct conformation and fiber that is fine, dense, remarkably consistent from skin to tip across the blanket and is the same clear through to the belly and shoulder/bib area. We are not seeing any large primaries as his secondaries come in - quite remarkable for a grey. Look closely at his pedigree - Creedence hails from ancestry that grey breeders know well. Top and bottom, the parents are champion and champion producers. Superb sire, A Paca Fun's Sonic Shift, has credentials all his own and power dam, TAR Cupid's Daphne is a secret weapon that has produced champions at every level. Look for Creedence at shows and on Instagram. #CreedenceTheAlpaca.
