Kaitlyn has mostly Accoyo Lineage. Kaitlyn's maternal grandsire, 5 Peruvian Chaccu, was the 2001 AOBA National Show Blue Ribbon winner in the Get of Sire Class. Chaccu was originally used extensively in the Snowmass Alpacas Breeding Program. Chaccu represents rare blood here in the US as he is from the Puno Region in Peru where very few genetics were released during the imports to the US. Kaitlyn had a male cria (16.2 lbs) on 5/14/2012 out of Snowmass Rock Star XX, our magnificent true black herdsire. Kaitlyn is currently bred to Snowmass Andean Midnight, a stunning true black, being elite in every way. Snowmass Andean Midnight offers proven genetics of brightness and handle. This beautiful, compact, jet true black, silky-soft male holds an outstanding pedigree for fineness. His fiber has a uniform low amplitude high frequency style of crimp. His grandsire is none other than Andean Bronze, the sire of Royal Bronze - from Snowmass' vicuna type alpaca retaining fineness under 20 microns after reaching maturity. In the show ring, Andean was awarded 1st place in AOBA, 2008; 1st place and Reserve Color Champion at IAO, 2007; and 2nd place at Futurity, 2007. Her due date is May 2014.
