I am so very excited to add this girl to my program!! When my grandparents had told me that they purchased Lot 17 I was excited for them, but when they turned around and said "she is yours" I became overwhelmed!
FDA Inspired Aspen Inspiration is an incredible cross of genetics between a Snowmass Divine Love son, FDA Divine Inspiration, and a Snowmass Pure Reserve XX daughter, FDA Pure Aspen Girl. FDA Divine Inspiration is a maternal-brother to the incredible "FDA Rembrandt By El Niño" and FDA Pure Aspen Girl has a daughter and maternal-sister both working at A&H Alpacas in France, both have been producing amazing progeny! Another daughter of Pure Aspen Girl, FDA Aspen Monte Rosa is on her way to Switzerland to Alpakas Vom Spiegal. Her maternal sister, Aspen's Alpine by Divine Love produced a 2-time "Best of Show" male named AHA Nicco for Alps Alpacas of Italy! Something to also note is that Snowmass Pure Reserve XX was exported to Germany to Miriquidi Alpacas and was recently sold to Piani degli Alpacas of Italy! So, her genetics are extremely limited and super treasured and have consumed great success all over Europe!!
Not to mention, her pedigree is made up of animals from Amanda Vandenbosch & Jude Anderson, two AOA judges, and Mike Cates, a very well known transporter with a keen eye of alpacas.
As Amanda describes her: "FDA Inspired Aspen Inspiration - Fineness, uniformity, density ++. This young female is something special, she is feminine in her style, beautiful phenotype, correct in her frame, correct in her jaw alignment and grown out well for her age. Take her strong base and add the most luxurious fiber, 17 micron, SD 3.2, and 100% comfort factor. It is soooo soft, she has a long staple and sheared 3.4lbs skirted blanket. Excellent structure as you move from her shoulder, id side, rump, and low mid, simply packing density into the staples and showing great charter throughout, this fleece is bright healthy and well nourished. Amazing lineage, proven bloodlines. High quality stock!! A +++."
I am extremely excited about the future with this girl!
Aspen is currently bred to 31X Champion, Ironhide Vapor, CONFIRMED for a January 2027 cria.
FDA Inspired Aspen Inspiration is owned by Cadence Rarden (Marc and Sharons granddaughter) for her private program called Ironhide Alpacas
