And a little history on Harley... Years ago I looked out into a large herd of alpacas when I was visiting a ranch and one alpaca in particular caught my eye. Before I even knew what a harlequin was, the stunning Bella Gris started my journey to learn about harlequins and what makes them so very special. In 2016, I had an opportunity to add this beautiful harlequin daughter of Bella Gris to my herd. Their looks are very different, one a very light silver grey platinum harlequin and the other a darker version-- both simply exquisite! While Harley's color is a variation of her dam's, she carries the same beautiful phenotype of her dam and sire-- LV Vantaggio Di Bisturi--with fleece to die for. And for those Bisturi and Assie Rockford lovers-- Harley is the granddaughter of both! UPDATE: 2021 Fiber Stat results just in. Please note Harley's test scores... her stats practically unchanged since 2014!

Description

This young female is very unique. Her underside is a bold marbling with black emerging up her flank and belly. Her blanket looks solid dark brown, but after shearing we do see some marbling and a few black spots. First Kiss's dam, "Harley" is a second generation harlequin out of LV Bella Gris-- a platinum harlequin that showed as grey and is a grey Color Champion. Harley is a unique harlequin in that she does not display the typical "spotting" but more of a marbling throughout her body. At almost 9 years of age, Harley's fiber stats have remained relatively unchanged since her first histogram in 2014. 2014 / AFD 20.1, SD 4.1, %>30=2.1 2021 / AFD 20.3, SD 4.8, %>30=3.1 First Kiss is the very first offspring of FDA Rock n Roll. He was selected as Harley's 2021 service sire-- not just because of his elite-fleece and beautiful phenotype... but because if you look closely, he has marbling throughout his blanket making him the perfect compliment to Harley. So, needless to say, we are very excited about the resulting cria from the Harley X Rock n Roll pairing. She will be a fun one to watch how she matures and what you breeding future holds for her.
