Cortez may look like your average fawn herdsire, but it is important to know that he has sired Champions in every colour including our 7X Grey Champion Arriba Adonis (from a white dam), 4x Black Champion Arriba Willa and 3x Fawn Champion Arriba Callahan! UPDATE: Cortez has been colour tested! MC1R & ASIP Genotype: ee aa We have several of his daughters in our foundation herd that are either black or they go on to have black crias when bred to colour! He has impacted our breeding program immensely! Cortez is absolutely spectacular! A large male with perfect conformation. Fine fleece with incredible crimp, brightness and density. Great temperment to top it all off. Did we mention unique lineage? Take a look at his AOA certificate His Dam is Cperuvian Cara (Angel), who always produced Champions for us and his Sire, Qolmesa Seville, had very limited use on a small farm. Cperuvian Cara was imported from the Pichacani Farm in 1998, at 2 years of age her histogram was an incredible 16.9, 3.2, 18.9, 0.2 ! Qolmesa Seville was the Reserve Champion Male at the 2004 Alpaca Ontario Show! We bought a breeding from him for Angel. It was the only breeding he did in Canada before he left to live on a small farm in the U.S.A. Cortez is the result of that breeding and the only Seville offspring in Canada! Cortez settled his first females in Spring 2009. His crias look incredible!....HE HAS THROWN EVERY COLOUR FROM WHITE TO BLACK!!**

We were very excited to add this gorgeous female to our breeding program. A Spruce Park Armoni daughter, multiple award winner and ranking Top 1% in EPD's! Monet has proven to be one of our best producers! **Monet's first cria is a beautiful girl sired by Dovecote Gabriel!** Her second cria, another gorgeous girl sired by Arriba Cortez! Third Cria...yet another adorable girl sired by Arriba Antero! Monet is bred to Oreo. This time we wanted to see if we can bring that colour out from her background : ) Her cria is a light fawn male. Not as dark as we had hoped for, but I'm sure he'll produce colour when he starts his breeding career! Yay, another fawn girl for Monet and Cortez! Monet is bred to our newest appaloosa male, Siggy. Can't wait to see this cria.

Despite a rocky beginning that involved some health issues, this young male has proven to be an outstanding breeder. His exceptional fleece remains ultrafine and incredibly soft, even at the age of 7 (check out his histogram). His genetic lineage can be traced back to the well-known Kung Pao bloodline, which is reflected in his impressive offspring. This male is a sweetheart and a pleasure to have in the barn. Check out some of his incredible progeny: • In 2023, we welcomed his sweet little girl, Lucy, who has already shown tremendous potential. • In 2024, we have three of his offspring scheduled to arrive – stay tuned for more updates!
