To say we were excited to partner with Amber Autumn Alpacas with CCNF Legionnaire at the 2014 Breeders Edge Auction would be a understatement, a huge one. In a long run, Legionnaire went on to be the highest selling alpaca at the auction (we bought him for $57,500), figures considering this guys genetics.
This spectacular young male was the 2015 Futurity Fawn Male Color Champion & 2015 AOA National Fawn Male Reserve Champion!! Two of the most prestigious shows in the alpaca industry and he to ...

In a long run, Legionnaire went on to be the highest selling alpaca at the auction (we bought him for $57,500), figures considering this guys genetics.
This spectacular young male was the 2015 Futurity Fawn Male Color Champion & 2015 AOA National Fawn Male Reserve Champion!! Two of the most prestigious shows in the alpaca industry and he took home purple. Ending his show career with four Judges' Choice awards and nine Championship awards.
By one of the world’s great sires, out of a female from a sensational family line who has made a huge impact on the United States industry, here we have a male bred on a cross that has been proven to produce champions.
CCNF Legionnaire, a son of Snowmass Matirx Majesty, has enjoyed extraordinary success as a sire with championship winners in both the United States and Canada and his offspring being found in Poland, United States, Canada, and Australia. Overall, his offspring have won many championships and even Judges’ Choice and National Championship titles. Even more impressive, his son Red Granites Pallaton (Now resides in Poland) won the 2018 Canadian Supreme Champion Male award, Palltons offspring have had much success in the Canadian show rings themselves. Another son by Legionnaire, Red Granites Man of Mystery (Owned by Willow Wind Farm Alpacas) is the densest alpaca yet biopsied by Ian Watt in the USA, and we have not yet heard of a denser alpaca out there a at a whopping 127.2 follicles/square mm density. His daughter, Red Granites Pixie was sold at the 2018 Amber Autumn Auction for a pretty penny, where she was purchased by EP Cambridge Alpaca Stud in Australia.
Combining Cas-Cad-Nac's powerhouse production female; CCNF Magdalena and Snowmass Matrix Majesty you would only hope for an advanced fleece, Legionnaire carries a extremely advanced fleece. He carried a six year old fleece with a AFD of 17.3 and SD of 2.5, SIMPLY UNREAL numbers for a six year old BREEDING male.
Legionnaire's breedings are limited, please contact us for more information.

Snowmass Conopa XXX Vail is one of our all time most treasured production females.
A 10-TIME PRODUCE OF DAM WINNER she has continued to prove herself through her offspring.
Her production has taken us to the top at shows and to the Elite level in our breeding program.
Snowmass Conopa XXX Vail is the only left offspring by HWA Plantel's Promise, a direct 6Peruvian Accoyo Plantel daughter who carried a gorgeous fawn grey fleece, and was very dear to Snowmass Alpacas, we sadly lost her in 2011 after she had her second daughter, Red Granites Royal Promise, who we also ended up loosing later in 2014. Vail has exceeded our expections with carrying on these genetics, and we are forever grateful for the oppourtunity on purchasing her and her dam.
Her first son, Red Granites Val D Lsere, is quite possibly the most amazing Snowmass MR Sizlin Rose son we have ever produced/seen. He is a 3X AOA National Dark Male Supreme Champion winner and has over 20 judges' choice and championship awards. Most recently, Val D Lsere, claimed the 2021 Futurity Herdsire of the Year (Large Breeder Division), 2021 Futurity Herdsire of the Year Dark-Colored Offspring & 2021 Futurity Reserve Herdsire of the Year Light-Colored Offspring. He is also our first ever alpaca to reach vicuna/merino fine fleece at 13.9 microns with intense curvature at 64.6.
Her first daughter, Red Granites Vista By Rembrandt, has produced some of our FINEST white animals here at Red Granite Ranch. Her offspring have reached 11 micron fleeced with curve's in the 60's. Each and every one of her offspring carry lov CV vaules that are relative to their AFD numbers.
Her second daughter, Red Granites Sizlin Vegas was the 2018 Futurity Fawn Female Reserve Color Champion winner, who is now in the hands of EP Cambridge Alpaca Stud in Australia being sold for quite a pretty penny.
Her fourth son, Red Granites Val Thorens sold for 20-grand as a juvenile at his first show, where he racked up championship banners. He was also the 2021 AOA National Fawn Male Color Champion winner.
We have bred Vail to Legionnaire for a 2022 cria. This breeding could just be one of our next 'big' things.
Will be bred to Legit for a 2023 cria.
Vail is not for sale. She is placed on our website as a foundation female for those who view her crias and as a viewing point of our aniamls. :)

Someone missed out on this female at the AAA!
Venus is a name which means Goddess of Beauty, and this female is truly the Goddess of Beauty and she will have you needing her in your breeding program.
A stunning overall female with no faults. Great size and capacity, perfect for birthing her cria, with straight front and rear legs, level top line, good coverage, and best of all her fleece - - it's stunning! Brightness, fineness, uniformity, density, and a soft handle. One must also quickly notice her impressive staple length that she grows even despite having lots of density!
She is a complete female in our eyes, and she has the genetics to be a beast of a foundation dam, just like her mother Snowmass Conopa XXX Vail. Snowmass Conopa XXX Vail can be easily noticed as one of the most influential breeding females to grace the Red Granite Ranch program. She can easily be identified as the dam of: Red Granites Val D Lsere (multiple Herdsire of the Year winner & 3xSupreme Champion), Red Granites Sizlin Vegas (Judges' Choice winner & Futurity Champion, Owned by EP Cambridge Alpaca Stud in AUS), Red Granites Val Thorens (2xJudges Choice winner and AOA National Champion), Red Granites Vista By Rembrandt (dam of multiple champion offspring), along with many others. Though, many don't know that Vail is also a transformational female with her unique genetics that cross Snowmass Conopa XXX with 6Peruvian Accoyo Plantel (White Peruvian Import) & 6Peruvian Tom Timbo (Silver Grey Peruvian import), making Vail simply one of a kind as far as her genetics are concerned, and even more valuable with her production record. Her offspring have won numerous accolades at The Futurity & AOA Nationals, and have won her numerous "Produce of Dam" titles at shows across the country...
CCNF Legionnaire (Ee AA) is the sire of Red Granites Venus. He brings in the genetics of Snowmass Matrix Majesty and Snowmass Legacy Gold to Snowmass Conopa XXX Vails already impressive lineage. One should not look past Legionnaire, as he is not only a Futurity & AOA National Champion in his own right, but also is an internationally recognized stud male with offspring residing across the United States, Canada, Poland, the United Kingdom and Australia. His offspring are known for their impressive micron numbers which stay insanely fine and uniform throughout their lives as well as the density and frames he stamps onto his offspring. This is expected as Legionnaire had a 6-year-old test reading: 17.3, 2.5, 20.1, 0.5, CURV 51.2, SPIN FINENESS 16.7. Legionnaire is the sire of multiple AOA National Champions, Canadian Supreme Champions, and even the densest alpaca biopsied by Ian Watt in the USA at 127.2 follicles/square mm density. Venus is an excellent example of Legionnaire.
