Co-Owned with Terry Passanante of Clover Bottom Alpaca Ranch! I watched this guy blow through the show season in 2015 and 2016, championship after championship. A modern grey outshining a typically highly competitive grey class to win over and over again - thirteen times! He won championship classes with 40+ animals in them!! His birth farm, Faraway Farm Alpacas, described him like so: "From the day he was born, we knew this boy was exceptional with his tightly curled popcorn fleece that was gray on the inside and consistently fine, long stapled and with crimp down his legs and under his belly. It wasn’t until his first shearing that his color was fully revealed: a rich dark rose gray." Sired by the amazing Futurity Champion, Crystal Spartan the 2010 Futurity Brown Male Color Champion winner. His dam, Quarry Ridge Marimba, is a Champion herself and has produced champion offspring. Silver Lining has inherited outstanding characteristics from outstanding parents. Silver-Lining has absolutely lived up to his name and continues to wow the judges. His crias have been amazing and are top show winners. We have a handful of his crias for sale from our 2024 birthing class, take a look at them, you will not be disapointed! If you are looking for excellence in Modern Grey or just EXCELLENCE, Silver Lining might be your guy!

Lil was one of three animals I took to my first show EVER. She was one of two females and I also brought a rose grey male. Lil and her female friend were both yearlings and they BOTH won championships. My grey male got a first in his first show. Needless to say - what a way to start out. Lil has an outstanding pedigree. Her Dad is Bea-2 Bomber (who I own) and her Mom is a Cupid's Delilah out of Inga Cloud (who I also own) and Cupid (who I also own). Are you getting the picture? This lineage Inga Cloud/Cupid/Bea-2 Bomber has produced some of the most outstanding offspring and Lil is no exception. And they are all HERE at Willow Wind Farm. Lil is a compact sturdy female - just the way we like them. Her fleece is super dense like her granddad Cupid and has the fineness and brightness of character like her Dad Bomber. Lil was bred to Silver Lining and delivered the most amazingly beautiful modern grey female in Sept 2019 we named Halo. And so.... The epic saga continues. Lil gave birth to another Silver Lining cria summer of 2021. His name is Echo Delta and we cant wait to get him in the show ring. Another modern grey. This boy is a replica of Mom. Sturdy. Full Coverage. Dense. And ample fineness and character in that fleece. Lil was bred back to Man of Mystery... well, because we just wanted to try out that combination. I CANNOT WAIT for these offspring to hit the ground this year. Her density. His density. Her fineness matched with his ultra fineness. Its gonna be crazy wonderful we think. And so it is! A dark fawn male with such AMAZING fiber traits. He runs. He jumps. This guy is a solid colored Man of Mystery offspring. And he looks really promising. Lil will be bred in Spring 2023 for a 2024 cria - we arent totally sure which outstanding male to pair her with..... We think he is a tux (wink wink) and we think the results will be memorable.
