AOA# 35123040DOB: 8/20/20168 yrs
Red Granites Aragon is one of the finest highest curve fawn fleeced stud males in our breeding program. He has routinely stayed in a the limits of the Royal Alpaca fleece stats, even as a breeding male with crias on ground. He is our main goal as a huacaya breeder, lasting fineness with density. His line lineage is quite unique with a Fawn Sire: CCNF Legionnaire, a son of Snowmass Matrix Majesty who is now deceased. His Dam is one of our finest .38 Special daughters, Crescent Moon's Anna Lucia, who has produced multiple Futurity & National Champions in an array of dark-colors. Aragon is by far her best son produced thus far. Red Granites Aragon is a striking medium fawn, award-winning male. He has a very beautiful fleece. Aragon carries an extremely soft fine, yet very dense fleece, with amazing brightness to add on. He carries a full fleece body of high-frequency low amplitude fleece with small individual little bundles throughout, and is very consistent throughout the body. He has carried a Grade 0 fleece since is first shearing, which is amazing considering he is now a 5 year old breeding male. We took Aragon to a few shows but didn't return until he was of mature age due to his extreme qualities. Aragon blossomed a little late into his show career. He wasn't on our showing list until fall of 2017 but never returned on our list till TXOLAN in 2018 where he was awarded a 2nd place and Reserve Color Champion. After that point, he was winning anything above 3rd places. At the National Western Stock Show in 2020 at 3 years of age, he was awarded the 2020 Grand Champion male, as a 3-year-old!! We then brought Aragon to the 2020 AOA National Show and he did not disappoint us! As a 42.8-month-old male, he came home with the Fawn AOA National Color Champion win. He has produced colors in all colors, championships winners and top show placers. Fiber and Fleece Description Carries a great high curve 5 years remained to have a high curve 66.6, and high frequency of crimps Excellent brightness and extreme consistency of fiber character over the entire blanket Bright, Fine, Uniform crimp structuring throughout FINENESS GRADE 0 at ages 1, 2, and 3 years old FINENESS GRADE 0 CURRENT age 5 years

AOA# 35268321DOB: 10/27/201311 yrs
Please meet our 4X COLOR CHAMPION golden show girl, who produces the most exquisite dark fleeced animals!! Irish Meadows' My Lacy is the true testament of how far a fawn female can go to produce color with no sign of dark colored animals throughout her pedigree, the darkest being fawn, no sight of brown, black, or grey. As the first ever Sistina's Accoyo Destinati offspring, she is very special. Her sire is an 8X CHAMPION including a champion win at the AOBA National's. At her first show as a juvenile she pulled down the Color Champion ribbon, then again at her second show! She went on to win a total of 4-color champion banners, out of attending six different shows. One Color Champion win being at the prestigious AOA National Show. The biggest question was, will her offspring carry her fleece qualities? The answer, YES! Her 2017 son, Red Granites Lapu (Sired by Kirwin) took two Reserve Color Championships at the 2020 AOA National Show, one in Fleece and the other in halter . All together he is a 5X CHAMPION. Her 2016 daughter, Red Granites Sizlin Lakota (Sired by Snowmass MR Sizlin Rose) was the 2017 ABR Fall Festival Alpaca Show Halter light Female Reserve Champion winner. Her 2018 daughter, Red Granites Larkspur (Sired by Snowmass Reserved) was the 2020 TXOLAN Alpaca Spectacular Halter Reserve Champion winner. UPDATE 2020: My Lacy threw a BAY BLACK male with our super-stud male -- Red Granites Val D Lsere!! Fine, extreme density, and excellent brightness, a future champion in rotation, for sure!

Description

Red Granites Lionheart is a maternal brother to Red Granites Legit By Val D Lsere, our Bay Black 21-time Champion Stud Male - we are so confident in Lionheart's potential that we would offer him for full-ownership with the exception of retaining breedings. Lionheart has a highly organized, bright fleece with incredible density and fleece architecture that we breed for here at Red Granite Ranch! His Sire, Red Granites Aragon is a genetic powerhouse and is a highly decorated male through both his show success and his progenies, Aragon is one of our most treasured fawn colored Herdsires because of how well he maintains his low micron and SD numbers as he ages. An all-time low micron of 13.5 microns and high of 20.2 microns, with an all-time low SD of 2.9 and high of 4.2 - Aragon checks all the boxes. His offspring are top show winners to boot. His Dam, Irish Meadows’ My Lacy is an AOA National Champion herself and has produced two Black National Champion sons; Red Granites Lapu and Red Granites Legit. Legit knocked it out of the park with his 2024 crop of crias, which we are eagerly awaiting the time to show them all. My Lacy is one of our best foundation females who has exceptional longevity to her fineness and uniformity traits, which she passes on through generations. Lionheart won the Male Best Bred & Owned banner under Amanda VandenBosch at the 2024 TXOLAN Sweetheart Spectacular, comments included: “soft handling fleece…upright male with pleasing style…maintaining softness, fineness, length of staple.” He joined our show team again for the Fall 2024, and won a championship banner at just about every show he attended. We are so proud to have this future Herdsire representing our breeding program at the ACEs Loaded Auction! Red Granites Lionheart is a manifestation of our long-term breeding vision, and is everything we hoped for when pairing two of our top colored breeding lines. Continue showing this boy and then bring him home and breed him to your best! We know you will not be disappointed with what he does for your program!!
