Judge Sharon Loner called Sammo a "FANTASTIC MALE" at the 2015 California Classic! In the championship round she found he was finer fleeced than the juvenile male of the class! Sammo's 2014 fleece took a 2nd place at the 2015 Great Western Alpaca Show where Judge Wini Labrecque noted an exceptionally fine fleece exhibiting good brightness and hand. And Sammo scored very high in his Walking Fleece class at the 2015 West Coast Alpaca Show, taking First Place. Judge Wini Lebrecque commented that he was very fine, dense and uniform with a low amount of guard hair mainly on the britch/belly. She was so taken with Sammo that, in the awards ceremony, she commented that she thought he might have taken the Winners Cup! This is high praise for a 2 year old gray male!!! Sammo has grown up to be quite the Macho! His first cria are on the ground and they are very nice, indeed! At just 6 months, his boy Azzreal took first place in a very competitive black juvenile class at the 2016 Gold Country Gathering. We can't wait to see how these cria grow up! Until then his breedings continue to be available at an introductory rate. But we're sure that will rise! Get your breedings while they're still affordable!

At birth we thought WOW! This girl has a LOT of fleece and the early bundling in the popcorn curls was impressive. As she's grown the fleece quality and character has done nothing but improve. Check out the bundling in the photo of the shorn fleece. Her fleece has an amazing buttery handle with great fineness and density. She's definitely destined for the show ring! Unfortunately we weren't able to show Irene in spring 2021 due the the COVID 19 Pandemic (and shows being cancelled). Ordinarily, we'd have bred her this fall. But when we saw that we were actually going to have a fall show, we decided to wait and we're glad we did! At the Gold Country Gathering 2021, Irene earned a First Place and Color Champion in Halter. Judge Wade Gease called her the complete package, noting her very fine, dense fleece, with long staple length. In Walking Fleece, Judge Ken Hibbits loved her fleece's hand, staple length, crimpy bundling, and balance, with nice uniformity across her body, awarding her First Place. Judge Beverly Brehm seemed to almost blush when announcing "this girl has amazing fleece!" in the Halter class at the CA Classic 2022. Then she went on to praise her density, staple length and character in addition to being well grown, when awarding her First Place. In Walking Fleece, Judge David Barboza noted her uniformity, fineness, density, bundling and handle, placing her in Fourth Place in a very competitive class. We entered her 2022 fleece in two fleece shows. Judge Stephanie Glyptis noted her "incredible staple length and carries well defined crimp to the tips" when awarding her 81.5 points, earning her the Advanced Fleece Award in the AOA National Fleece Show. Then, Judge Beverly Brehm noted "Wow! What a beautiful fleece! Uniform, ultrafine and excellent crimp style!..." when awarding her 82.5 points.
