AOA# 35489481DOB: 8/9/20195 yrs

This well grown, upstanding, true to type male has exceptional fleece qualities and great phenotype. With color in his background, we expect him to produce extreme COLORED and WHITE offspring! Red Granites Bracken By Val D Lsere exhibits excellent brightness within his fleece and is very fine with good density, well organized crimp that bundles and excellent staple. All these traits you would expect as a son of our very own, Red Granites Val D Lsere. His sire needs little -- to no introduction as he has claimed three AOA National Dark Male Supreme Championships, and was the 2021 Futurity Herdsire of the Year, 2021 Futurity Reserve Light Herdsire of the Year, and 2021, 2022, and 2023 Futurity Dark Herdsire of the Year. In our opinion, he stands as one of the most distinguished colored huacaya males in the world. Red Granites Bracken's Dam, HDF Peruvian Batista, was one of the finest animals from Heart's Desire Farm, she was rated as one of the best they have produced. Batista had a first year histogram test of 12.2 with a curv of 62.9, second year 14.9, fifth year of 18.8. Her progeny have elite fiber traits and big bones and have all made their way into our foundation herd, which says a lot. She brings lingering fineness to the table. Bracken himself had a yearling histogram that reads: 16, 3.7, 22.8, 0.4, CURV 55.1 SPIN FINE 15.9 and a fourth year histogram that reads: 19.8, 4.0, 20.4, 1.9, CURV 53.9, SPIN FINE 19.2. His micron went up 3.8 microns and SD went up 0.3. This is a genetic trait from his dam: LINGERING FINENESS & UNIFORMITY. It was no surprise that Bracken was the primary excitement during his show career winning many championships and was still winning Best Bred & Owned banners as a 2-Year-old breeding male. One of the championships was at the 2021 AOA National Show where he placed behind the light male Supreme Championship winner. He also took 1st place as a yearling at the Futurity 2021. He recently took the 2022 TXOLAN Sweetheart Spectacular Best Bred & Owned Male Award under Amanda V, and at the 2022 TXOLAN Bluebonnet Stakes side he won his class but lost to our Dark Fawn Val D Lsere son for the Best Bred & Owned Male award judges by Diana T. For those wanting to improve phenotype, fineness, and uniformity while adding high-frequency bundles, consider Bracken. Color Genotype: ee Aa2 (non-grey) Red Granites Bracken will produce white to true black depending on how he is bred. Fleece Description High-frequency staples expressed in a very uniform manner across his body. Excellent brightness is expressed within his fleece. Good density and staple growth.

Description

Red Granites Ruby is a striking light fawn female who exemplifies the very best of modern alpaca genetics. She is a product of years of selective breeding focused on consistency, lingering fineness, and elite phenotype—and she wears it well. Her fleece has a luxurious, buttery-soft handle with a high degree of uniformity across the blanket, down into the extremities, and across the staple—traits highly sought after by discerning breeders and fleece enthusiasts alike. She stands on a correct, well-balanced frame with refined bone and excellent proportions, making her equally suited for the show ring and the foundation herd. Ruby’s confident, feminine presence completes the package—she is the kind of female that makes a long-term impact. Ruby’s pedigree is laced with depth and diversity, bringing together lines known for their elite fiber characteristics and enduring genetic value. Her sire, Red Granites Bracken By Val D Lsere, is an impressive male with exceptional fleece qualities and upright phenotype. Bracken attracted considerable attention in Europe as a young male, and it’s easy to see why—he combines the powerful genetics of Snowmass Mr Sizlin Rose and Snowmass Val D Lsere with HDF Peruvian Batista, one of Heart’s Desire Farm’s finest-ever foundation females sired by Maple Brook Barnabus. Batista herself was noted for her astonishing retained fineness, posting histogram results like 12.2 microns in year one with a curvature of 62.9, followed by 14.9 in year two, and only 18.8 by year five. Bracken mirrors that performance with a micron increase of just 3.8 microns and only a 0.3 SD shift over three years, Bracken exemplifies the rare trait of lingering fineness—a trait he reliably passes to his progeny... On the maternal side, Ruby descends from another gem: Red Granites Riveria, one of the few remaining daughters of the late MFI Master At Arms, a male we tragically lost in a cougar attack in May. Riveria brings together the power of MFI Master At Arms, Lionheart's Connagher, and Crescent Moon's Shiftin Gears—all now deceased, but all of whom made an indelible mark on the North American herd. Riveria’s genetic legacy is one of consistent production, strong maternal traits, and deeply embedded fleece quality. Red Granites Ruby sells with a complimentary, non-transferable maiden breeding to any unrestricted, unrelated Red Granite Ranch herdsire. This is a golden opportunity to take her already strong genetic base and elevate it even further. For this pairing, we highly recommend: AMAF’s Top Gun, an 18-time champion male with east coast genetics, or a CCNF Legionnaire son such as Red Granites Bojangles or Red Granites Aragon, both of whom offer elite longevity and proven show performance well into adulthood. Red Granites Ruby combines elite genetics, proven production lines, and an undeniable presence—don’t miss the opportunity to make her yours!!
