Red Granites End of Day is a striking true black female who has matured into something truly special over the summer of 2025. Born in April 2024, she has developed into a well-balanced young female with excellent conformation, a bright, uniform fleece, and an outstanding pedigree to match. She will be breeding-ready by Spring 2025, making her an ideal candidate for anyone looking to invest in elite black genetics with depth and proven performance.
Her sire, Red Granites Chandler Bay, is a unique and valuable addition to our breeding lineup. Notably, Chandler Bay has only produced females to date, and he carries double A1 alleles, the darkest possible black gene combination available in alpacas. This means every one of his progeny will inherit at least one copy of this deep black allele, giving them powerful genetic potential for dark-colored offspring. His ability to consistently stamp out quality dark-colored females makes him an exciting and important contributor to the future of black huacaya genetics.
End of Day’s dam adds even more depth to her already impressive lineage. She is a granddaughter of both CCNF Legionnaire and Snowmass MR Sizlin Rose, two of the most influential and respected sires in the U.S. alpaca industry. Her maternal line is a powerhouse of consistency, color, and production quality. Going back several generations, her great-great-granddam, Lancaster’s Ausable Arabesque, produced some of the most influential foundation females in our program, including Red Granites At A Girl (End of Day’s granddam) and Presidio’s Ausable Pirouette. Pirouette’s genetics have made an international impact. She has two progeny currently owned by Cathy & Matthew Lloyd of EP Cambridge Alpaca Stud, one of the world’s most respected breeding programs. Her true black son, Red Granites Pecos Pete, is a multi-champion stud servicing over 1,500 females in Australia. Meanwhile, her daughter, Red Granites Pixie, is making her way to EP Cambridge’s United Kingdom division, further spreading this maternal line’s influence on a global scale.
This maternal line is exceedingly rare and tightly held—we don’t often part with females of this caliber. The few we have released have gone on to become successful producers and important foundation females in other elite programs. End of Day is no exception. Her fleece is bright and consistent, with medium frequency and amplitude in the crimp style and a soft, uniform hand throughout the blanket.
We have chosen to breed her to Boco Raton. Our hopes is he will add more density and architecture to her fleece and she will add staple length.
