JackKnife has the coolest colors and pattern, and is one of the 6 appies produced by Fusion in 2016. He has beautiful luster, good lock structure and fineness, and correct conformation. JackKnife has a playful and inquisitive personality and is easy to handle. His colors are a brilliant dark fawn and light silver grey, and we can't wait to see him shorn to see his spot pattern. Since JackKnife is the product of 2 appy parents, we expect him to produce a high percentage of appaloosas. Patches, who is the dam of JackKnife, is a wonderful mother and great foundation dam. She is on the smaller size, weighing only about 135 lbs, but births easily and has lots of milk. Patches is a 3X Color Champions with 8 Blue Ribbons. She has retained her fineness and annual shear weights each year. Fusion, his sire, is a strong gentle male with a great personality. His spots are very distinct and bold, giving him a giraffe like appearance. You can best see his spots in his shorn photo on his page. His base color is medium silver grey, with med fawn spots. Fusion has produced 75% appy crias from a variety of dams, and we are learning each year how to reproduce the appy pattern. Fusion is closed to outside breedings, but you can purchase a female bred to him. JackKnife settled his first female in the summer of 2018 at just 2 years of age. He produced a beautiful appy female that was sold quickly. He was bred again to 4 females for 2020 crias, and produced 33 appys and 1 harlequin. JackKnife is again bred for another 4 crias in 2021. Can't wait for those spots! We have females FOR SALE that are bred to him. Check out Juliette and Solitaire, both proven producers. JackKnife is available for stud for $1500 and includes 45 days board and an ultrasound confirmation. Discounts for multiple breedings!

Tanika is coming to Fort Joy to retire and focus on her health. Come visit this gorgeous gal and see one the rarest appaloosa patterns we've ever come across. ___________________________________________________ **Description By Previous Owners at Wild Rose Suri Ranch** Tanika is one of the most striking alpacas we have ever seen. She is full Peruvian, almost 1/2 Accoyo and has the most beautiful patterned fleece. She is dark brown, medium silver grey and beige on the outside and silver grey underneath with spots of dark fawn. She got great genetics from her grandsires--Macgyver and Tattoo with the appaloosa gene coming from Magnifico. VLA Peruvian Sustantivo or "Tivo" is the production of full Peruvian Tanika and Victoria Lane's General Lee. Tivo is a gorgeous light fawn and has some phenomenal fleece. It's wavy all the way to the skin and the luster is unbelievable. He has perfect conformation and won his first Championship at CABO 2013. We acquired Tanika in April 2015 for our foundation herd and to breed to our appy spotted male, Shasta Springs Fusion, and she produced a beautiful big spot appy cria in 2016, "WRSR Prismatic by Fusion". She was rebred to Fusion in the spring of 2017 and produced a very spotted male cria, "WRSR Hot Spot by Fusion" on 6/1/18. We are so-o-o-o excited! Check out his listing and look at those locks and spots. Tanika is not offered for sale. She came to us with skin issues after a bout of mange + infection beginning in 2012. We have treated her skin and continue to take care trying to get her elephant skin and missing hair and on her legs and belly to regrow. We love her color! Tanika was bred to our own appaloosa, WRSR JackKnife by Fusion for an April 2022 cria.
