Red Granites Shadow

Congrats to Nancy of Alpaca Country Estates Ranch and B & B and the purchase of Red Granites Lapu! This male should help improve your black program! With his fineness, long staple, blanket consistency, and beautifully balanced conformation, Red Granites Lapu is an ebony showcase of the refined elements we cherish in all our Elite Herdsires. Red Granites Lapu is one of the most exquisite fleeced Kiriwn sons born to date and has a very unique combination of genetics. Bring the same advancements that we have witnessed n both light and color. It's not just about the Dam and Sire for us in our breeding program, it's the background of specific lineages to reach the top quality fleeced animals. His sire, Kirwin(13X Champion including AOBA), and his dam, Irish Meadows' My Lacy (AOA Champion), are both brimming with supreme champion colored genetics. In his showing days, Lapu was our #1 Black show string male. He, along with all his siblings from his pedigree line, shined brilliantly in the showing. Lapu is unrelated to most of our Black/dark brown Ines so he has to be the PERFECT BLACK MALE to breed our blacks and browns to. We have a very limited BLACK herdsire lineup with MFI Pistol coming to his last years, but we have a few of highly select black breeding females we plan on using with Lapu. FINENESS & BRIGHTNESS + DENSITY is key when breeding for color, especially black. We consider him to be extremely valuable, and will definitely be fusing him into our dark colored lines, specifically black Snowmass MR Sizlin Rose daughters. Lapu is settling females! He has a female (Red Granites Sunbeam Rose), confirmed pregnant for 6/27/2021! Fiber and Fleece Description He carries an extremely FINE fleece all over his body.
