Snowmass Seven Orchids is the pure definition of a Royal huacaya alpaca! We were thrilled to have had the opportunity to buy her at the 2015 Futurity auction from the then owners of Snowmass Alpacas, Julie & Don Skinner, the main reasoning being she had loads of potential even being under one year of age with her fleece being 4 inches long. Her fineness, brightness, density, and consistency of fleece runs through her linage top and bottom, making her a true representation of how dedicated and how much love went into each and every breeding when Snowmass Alpacas was breeding for Super Royal pure white alpaca seed stock. She is currently our highest-value, beige-production female despite being so young, with Snowmass Heavens Spice standing right above her, a Snowmass Heavens Guardian offspring. She is the only daughter from Snowmass Legends Orchid, all of her previous offspring were males! Snowmass Alpacas description of Snowmass Seven Orchids: Snowmass Seven Orchids: Seven is a sacred number for us in alpacas and she carries elements of excellence in fleece and linage that goes deeper than seven times. She is another rare Super Royal linage production from STANDING HERDSIRE(S) OF THE YEAR(S) Snowmass Seven Below, Snowmass Elite Legend, Snowmass Quechua, Snowmass Sub Zero, Snowmass Snowmaster and more. Five plus generations of pure white and carries a full ISAG DNA profile and is certified with CIS. She too will only improve value with all her offspring in your herd and bring growing demand for these valued pure seed stock genetics. Since her last breeding with Val D Lsere was so successful, we are re-bred Orchids to him for a 2022 cria. Hoping for a male this time! Orchids is not for sale she is placed on our website as a foundation female for those who view her crias. :) Fiber and Fleece Description Brightness, density and consistency of fleece is outstanding.
