SA DIAMANTE'S BLACKROCK BlackRock is certainly eye-catching and is a wonderful addition to the herdsires at Alpaca Country Estates. In the showring, his gorgeous phenotype continually drew attention. He was just right to bring some new and championship genetics to the farm. BlackRock is a solid copy of his sire with a full head, short square muzzle, heavy bone coverage on a typey, balanced frame. BlackRock's fleece traits complement his show presence with a compressed dense fleece, high frequency crimp, softness of hand, and notable brightness. It feels like cool velvet. Samples of his fleece show very few primary fibers with a low micron and excellent uniformity in his secondary fibers. His excellent fiber combined with his studly appearance made him succeed in the showring. BlackRock was awarded the 2022 Reserve Black Championship at Futurity and Reserve Champion at CABA! He is a 4th generation champion. BlackRock’s genetics are superb and filled with Snowmass ancestry. His sire, Snowmass Midnight Diamante is a 7x Champion with a track record of being the #1 Black Herd Sire three years running with over 50 bannered offspring. He created champion after champion with the majority of his offspring being black. He also created stunning silver grey cria. Behind Black Rock Diamante are prestigious lines such Snowmass Matrix Midnight, Snowmass Matrix, Snowmass XXXtreme, Snowmass Conopa XXX, Snowmass Andean Night, Hemingway, and more.
