Red Granites Alabama

ALABAMA SHEARED A WEIGHT OF 13.2 POUNDS THIS YEAR! And is in the TOP 1% of Fleece Weight in his 2021 EPDs!

Red Granites Alabama is an extremely stylish male that has always catches peoples' eye.

He has a pedigree that is packed, despite only having 3 Sires named in his pedigree (due to imports) - PPeruvian Caligula (Top and Bottom side), 4Peruvian Legacy, Peruvain Apatia, and Caligula's Accoyo Poseidon. Alabama's exceptionally long staple no doubt comes all the way down from PPeruvian Caligula crossed with 4Peruvain Legacy (Pearl Jam is known for producing dense but long fleece staples).

His sire, Greener Pastures Pearl Jam, is multi-champion and a two-time Judges' Choice winner, taking blues/reds at AOBA Nationals, AOA Nationals, and the Futurity against Snowmass animals. He is also a direct son of Caligula's Accoyo Poseidon.

Dam, Crescent Moon's Accoyo Aloma, is a direct daughter of 6Peruvain Accoyo Godfather and is a graddaughter to PPeruvian Caligula via dam. In 2016, Aloma sported a 20.8 micron and sheared 7.3 pounds of fleece!

He carries a double-dose of PPeruvian Caligula (hint, hint heavy fleece weights + exceptional brightness!). His crias are bound to have Caligula's features.

Alabama has a strong breeding background -- bound for great things. He has settled females quickly and easily as a 3-year-old and in 2020 presented us with a knockout beige male, Red Granites Paderaux from a white Snowmass Premonition granddaughter, Red Granites Truely Pearlina. Paderaux's fleece is exceptional - dense, crimpy, bright, soft and uniform.

Alabama's 2019 fleece was 4 inches long!


Comments from the 2018 Fall Festival Fleece Show:

"Incredible handle with good density and impressive brightness. Superior organization. Congrats!"

Breed to Alabama for improved fleece weight, finer fleeces, staple length and less overall fiber medullation. He is open for breedings and ready for service.
