Red Granites Prince Caspian is the darkest son sired by CCNF Legionnaire here at Red Granite Ranch and boy is he nothing short of A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!!!
Born as a bay black coloration, he was sheared and then showed his true color as a dark brown with black points on his ears, around his eyes, on his feet, and muzzle. We are extremely pleased with how he is developing and see him as a future "Herdsire" for sure.
Prince Caspian is phenotypically correct with excellent circumference of bone with excellence coverage - adding onto the fact that he has the picture perfect head that we want on all of our animals. His fleece shows brightness, extreme fineness and uniformity (courtesy of his sire), and density, density, density with an abundance of fleece being produced to add! But one could only expect this from a cross that has proven to be second to none: CCNF Legionnaire (Ee AA) & Snowmass MR Sizlin Rose, both monumental sires of the Red Granite Ranch breeding program with internationally recognized offspring...
CCNF Legionnaire has crias winning huge across the entirety of North America in Canada! In fact, two of his sons have won a Canadian Supreme Championship trophies, and one even winning Mature Huacaya of the Year. May we also mention that Legionnaire sired the densest alpaca biopsied in the US by Ian Watt? He is truly a great Herdsire...
The dam of Prince Caspian is Red Granites Sizlin Cherub, a Medium-Dark Brown, black-pointed foundation female sired by Snowmass MR Sizlin Rose and out of LMFI Peruvian Cherish, a direct daughter of Majestic Peruvian Jeremiah. Sizlin Cherub has a extremely fine fleece with a super soft handle.
This boy is a genetic package, lets see if he does his ancestry proud in the rings!
