Meaning, that on average gher progeny will have more uniform fiber diameter than the breed average, which is very much true. Her MSL for 2021 EPDs were in the Top 10% meaning, on average, her progeny will have longer fleeces, which is also very true. She placed first at three of the most prestigious alpaca shows here in the US in the true black classes: The Futurity, Great Western Alpaca Show & AOA National Show. WOW!

Dam: Snowmass Casanova's Charisma
One of our most prized Snowmass engendered females. Snowmass Sizlin Sunshine is a cross between Snowmass Sizlin Hot and Snowmass Casanova's Charisma. Sizlin Sunshine brings not only very fine alpacas into our herd but she brings in many colorful imported lines. Snowmass Sizlin Hot is the son of 5Peruvian Red Hot, a full Peruvian Snowmass stud who had brung many glossy fleeces and champion alpacas, now sadly deceased. Purchased a long time ago in auction from Snowmass Alpacas, the same year we purchased our dynamic trio of males; Snowmass Reserved, Snowmass Premonition, and Snowmass Matrix Rose. These four alpacas started our breeding program, and brought our genetic lines to where they are now. Snowmass Sizlin Sunshine was bred to Snowmass Matrix Rose when we purchsed her, so our ideal thought was we wouldn't get any Matrix Rose crias until 2011, why wait if we can have a early one in 2010? With two females at the auction bred to Snowmass Matrix Rose (Sunshine being one of them) we went based off of well luck, and we got, in the end, our 12X CHAMPION, 2016 Herdsire Of the Year & 2017 reserve Herdsire Of the Year winner -- Snowmass Mr Sizlin Rose, also sire of the 3X AOA NATIONAL DARK MALE SUPREME CHAMPION -- Red Granites Val D Lsere. She stamped her offspring, her offspring stamped theirs, and theirs did the same. The power of her genetic line are priceless in our eyes, and we will forever favor them. With never getting a female from her during her breeding years, we have relied on Snowmass Mr Sizlin Rose to give us her favorable female genes, and he hasn't let us down. Sizlin Sunshine now grazes peacefully in our old gal' pasture/pen, looking over her royal line she gave us. Until her time comes and when it comes and she goes, she will have a spot in our hearts forever.

Julie Skinner describes her this way: "SNOWMASS HEAVEN’S SPICE is one Snowmass Heaven’s Guardian’s first offspring. She is absolutely everything we hoped for. A mouthwatering fleece expressing fineness in abundance, bright beautiful character and the true consistency we strive for from head to toe. Heaven’s Spice has a beautifully balanced frame and the picture perfect alpaca head. Her maternal line brings in Futurity Champion; Snowmass Sweet Sage matched with Futurity Champion lineage Snowmass Conopa’s Kahuna. This line crossed with Heaven’s Guardians lineage resulted in the most exquisite results. We absolutely do not want to sell her especially in knowing we are releasing his sire from our program. There is no better way to present evidence of what Snowmass Heaven’s Guardian production will look like than putting her beside him and making an exciting Futurity show and sale entry to boot."

VAC's Beethoven's Primrose is a gorgeous bay black female who has been so instrumental in producing our lead color genetic lines. Daughter of NM Beethoven and VAC's Blue Indigo we knew she would be an impact female when we purchased her. Her pedigree is impressive with a very exciting color background that we are able to cross with any one of our Herdsires. Primrose herself is a five-time color championship winner and has placed first at some of the top shows in the country. Primrose has produced crias that are all very highly rated in both fleece and frame, with each of them having at least one championship win. Red Granites Party Girl is one of the most premier Dark Browns we have ever produced and won the 2019 Futurity Brown Female Championship as a juvenile and this was Primrose's daughter, sired by Red Granites Val D Lsere. She has been bred back to Val D Lsere now three times since producing Party Girl, her third was a drop dead gorgeous black female that was born this past summer (July 2021), we named her Party Gal. Take a look at her 2021 Histogram numbers, her numbers are off the charts for her age but as a BLACK it makes them even more special.

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!

Tell The Worlds maternal half-brother was our finest animal tested in 2021 with a micron of 14.1 as a dark brown yearling male…. Tell The Worlds fleece is well - AMAZING!! Density is not a problem whatsoever with this female, as it is what makes her standout compared to our other females we have. Density is one thing, pair that with the uniformity of micron all over her ENTIRE body, and we have a next gen female. Tell The World a daughter of Judges Choice winning Aussie .38 Special daughter, Tel Do Tel who has maintained her fineness very well as she ages. She is being bred to Snowmass Dire Straits for an elite 2026 cria.

An astounding 10X COLOR CHAMPION and JUDGES CHOICE WINNER this dark brown beauty will take your breath away.... Red Granites Party Girl was one part of our first crop of Val D Lsere crias and the quality from each and every one of them is something to admire. Party Girl is one of our favorite Val D Lsere daughters and easily rivals anyone of our other Val D Lsere offspring on the ranch. Her fleece is oh so soft with high frequency crimpy bundles throughout her blanket. Her density is also something to note along with her staple length. Even as a breeding foundation female she has maintained excellent fiber characteristics. As a juvenile Party Girl won the 2019 US Futurity Brown Female Color Champion, yes as a juvenile! Another one of her highlighted wins would be her Color Champion win at the 2020 AOA National Fleece Show taking home the Brown Female Color Champion banner with her juvenile fleece!

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.

Dam: Snowmass Heaven's Spice
Service Sire: Estates Passionate Fever
A reserve color champion winner at her first show, Red Granites Sassafras By Val D Lsere has an ultra-uniform, fine fleece with the same brightness and density that her dam had at her age. Show record aside, we really love this female for her combination of the best white genetics and the finest color producing genetics offered in the United States. Sassafras' dam, the multi-champion (included AOA National Champion x2) Snowmass Heaven's Guardian daughter; Snowmass Heaven's Spice carried a histogram test of 20.7, 3.5, 17.1, 0.8, 60.6, 19.5 at nearly six years old (2021). Her sire Heaven’s Guardian’s grid fleece results are stellar in Ultra Royal grade: 1st 13.2 microns 2nd Shearing 14.6 3rd Shearing 16.7 and 2015 16.4. So uniformity is rather strong on the maternal side of Sassafras' lineage, not a surprise considering it is of Snowmass' top white animals making it up.... Her Sire, Red Granites Val D Lsere needs no introduction. A 3-time Supreme Champion and multiple Herdsire/Reserve Herdsire of the Year recipient. Sassafras herself is a lovely built animal from the tip of her nose to the end of her tail -- everything just blends and proportions so smoothly. Her fleece is super uniform and full of high frequency fleece bundles all across her body in a white coloration. She is a Judges' Choice (under AOA Judges Arturo Pena) and Color Champion winner with four Reserve Color Champion banners to add. Sassafras took the 2021 Futurity White Female Reserve Color Champion banner with raving comments from Arturo Pena, once again! Thus far, Sassafras is a great breeding female.

Dam: Snowmass Conopa's Silk
Service Sire: Snowmass Mr Sizlin Rose
Snowmass Smoke N Silk is a female who has an incredibly powerful pedigree with some of the most influential colored huacayas. She has three notable sires just on her paternal side alone that should hint at the powerfulness, those sires include but are not limited to: Snowmass Conopa XXX, Snowmass XXXtreme (two times) and Snowmass Matrix. If your wondering who the sire of this pedigree is, its the modern rose gray multiple Futurity Champion: Snowmass Smokin. Snowmass Smokin is the product of crossing Futurity Champion Snowmass Conopa's Kahuna (arguably one of the best Conopa sons born carrying Snowmass XXXtremely Scarlet as his dam) and Snowmass Cashmina Gold, a beige Snowmass Matrix daughter and maternal granddaughter of Snowmass XXXtreme via her dam, Snowmass Cashmina). Now to us, that is one hell of a breeding male which is to be expected from Don and Julie Skinners program. When they sold the Snowmass herd and name, Snowmass Smokin was one of the few males they retained and continued breeding. That alone speaks volume. The dam of this lovely female (Smoke N Silk) is Snowmass Conopa's Silk, a Snowmass Conopa XXX daughter and a maternal granddaughter of the amazing Snowmass Invincible. Conopa's Silk is one of the few outcrossed Snowmass females as her dam, Snowmass Invincibly Silky, was a direct daughter of the medium fawn Colorado Mezcal making her unique. Snowmass Smoke N Silk will play a vital role in the Red Granite breeding program for many years to come.

Snowmass Secrets of the Andes is a true secret to have here at Red Granite Ranch and will be a serious secret weapon in the future. Now yes, we do know she is white but, her heritage is where we flipped the coin on purchasing her at the 2021 Parade of Champions Auction from Lynn Edens. What pushed us even further to purchase this female was her distant relation to our now late male, Snowmass Reserved. Her maternal grand-dam is Snowmass Heidi Love XX a 5Peruvian Tapara daughter making her a maternal-sibling to Snowmass Reserved. She descends from dark super-stars: Snowmass Matrix Majesty and Snowmass Andean Velvet and as such is line-bred on the incredible “dam of sires” Snowmass Simply Scrumptious.

Pallaton's Kalibaut Alyst Is our most recent purchase from the 2022 Amber Autumn Auction. “Kalibaut was named after world famous fine chocolate. She is my favorite cria of 2021.” KJ Alpacas. Daughter of Red Granites Pallaton who now resides in Poland (previously owned by KJ Alpacas of Canada), we couldn’t pass the opportunity to have one of the ONLY female offspring sired by him offered for sale, and the ONLY offspring from Pallaton x Gangster’s Jewel Alyst. Pallaton's Kalibaut Alyst, or Kali as we call her, has an extremely fine and uniform fleece with outrageous density. She is registered as a Medium Brown but we think she is a Dark Rose Grey. Her maternal pedigree is a complete outcross of genetics that we do not carry a Red Granite Ranch. With Majestic’s Peruvian Jeremiah, TAG Peruvian Bellagio, Jolimont 2 Peruvian Sweet William, Cimarron Gold Legend on her maternal side of her pedigree then crossing all of that with Red Granites Pallaton, a Canadian Supreme Champion (CCNF Legionnaire son)….this girl is going to produce phenomenal crias.

This is a real standout female. Her flawless show record in both halter and fleece shows and then her even more impressive record of producing the highest-quality progeny each and every year! Crescent Moon's Tel Do Tel is quite the special female, as it is not everyday an alpaca wins four National Championship titles across halter and fleece. She was a top performing show animal during her young days winning a combined ten-championships and won the Female Judges' Choice award at the 2013 Great Western Alpaca Show. Being a direct daughter of Aussie .38 Special she carries an exceptionally fine and even fleece across her entire frame, and has even maintained that fineness even as a breeding female. She is out of Crescent Moon's sacred "Tell Me" line, which has produced numerous banner winning animals across all colors for both Crescent Moon Ranch and us here at Red Granite Ranch... Her 2021 daughter, RGR Tell The World By Val D Lsere (Medium Fawn) was named an AOA National Walking Fleece Champion & Futurity Champion, along with taking top honors being the #2 High Point Huacaya Female from the 2021 to 2022 Show season.

LibertyAlpacas Simply Sterling is a beautiful addition to the RGR herd. A special thank you to our great friends, Lorrie & Jeff of Liberty Alpacas, for offering her at the 2026 Futurity. Her sire, Crescent Moon's Golden Locks, is a stunning male out of Accoyo Augustine and Crescent Moon's Champagne Locks. Her dam brings in the genetics of Snowmass Divine Love, Crescent Moon's Breathless, and Crescent Moon's Wilkinson.
Dam: Crescent Moon's Alecsia
Dam: Xanadu Talisker
Owned with Ironhide Alpacas. Color Genotype: E? ?? We would like to thank Pamela Ray of Xanadu Alpacas for releasing Tiaga to us! Cadence had her eye on Tiaga since the 2025 A-OK Dual Show, where she fell in love with her. Her fleece was just memorable. After quietly persisting Pamela for the past eight months, she finally agreed to release her to Cadence! Her sire is none other than Snowmass Lover's Spartan, a Brown Judges' Choice-winning son of Snowmass Lover's Legacy XX (Snowmass Lovers Legend x Snowmass Sweet Pacabell). Snowmass Lover's Spartan now resides in Canada with Ayria Alpacas; however, his impact on the U.S. herd is undeniable, siring the 2023 AOA National Light Male Supreme Champion, Xanadu Picotani, a lavender stud male now working for Pamela, along with many other champions. Her dam is Xanadu Talisker, a Judges’ Choice daughter of Snowmass Loro Piana (now deceased; Snowmass Best Man x Snowmass Iced Elegance), and out of Xanadu P. Althea, whose full brother is Xanadu P. Aristide (now residing in Australia). Xanadu P. Althea is also the dam of Xanadu One Singular Sensation, a Judges' Choice-winning white male who is now producing champions of his own. Talisker is also the dam of 7X Champion & Judges' Choice winner, Xanadu Cotopaxi, who is sired by Snowmass Dire Straits and owned by Rancho Inca Alpacas. I also had the privilege of seeing Cotopaxi at the 2024 and 2025 show seasons and was absolutely blown away. This incredible maternal line traces back to Peruvian Andean Song, the dam of Snowmass Delightful Duet (dam of Snowmass Elite Legend), Snowmass Sub-Zero, and Snowmass Escobar's Sonata (dam of Xanadu P. Au Courant), among many other influential animals. Tiaga's second cousin (and slightly more closely related genetically due to shared linebreeding), Xanadu Kanchay Pacha, sold at the 2026 Parade of Champions Auction for a high-selling price to my friend, Chamberlain Davenport of Patch of Heaven Alpaca Farm. I have had the privilege of following Kanchay Pacha since she was a juvenile and couldn't be more excited to welcome a close relative to my own herd. Tiaga carries a deep, rolling, high-amplitude crimp style to her fleece that exudes brightness and uniformity and glistens in the light, complemented by an impressive 5+ inch staple length while shearing 7lbs of fiber. She stands on a strong, well-balanced frame with excellent substance, correctness, and a correct bite. She will have a maiden breeding to Snowmass Dire Straits, and then will be bred to Ironhide Vapor! Oh, the anticipation!!
Dam: Perfect Peace Peruvian Diva
Co-owned with Happy Tails Alpaca Farm, Char & Rick Johnson We are very grateful for the opportunity to acquire half-interest in this multi-champion daughter of Red Granites Val D Lsere. While we aren’t one to co-own females, this was just the perfect thing to do!! We had Versace’s mother, Diva, here for a breeding in 2019, and fell in love with her beautiful fleece. When we saw this stunning female as a result of the pairing at the 2020 TXOLAN Dual Show we were amazed!! A greasy, deep amplitude fleece style with rolling brightness and density. She is being bred to Judges’ Choice winner, Encore's Smoke N Gun HH511, for a late Fall 2027 cria. We are excited for the future with this female. Color genotype: Ee AA, non grey

Herdsire (Male)
"This male is something special, an honor to be judging him." - 2018 AOA National Show after winning his third Supreme Championship. 28-time Get of Sire Winner, 2X Herdsire of the Year & 4X Herdsire of the Year Dark-Colored Offspring In the thoroughbred industry, it's often said that you breed the best to the best and then hope for the best. That certainly wasn't the case when Red Granites Val D Lsere took out the Dark Male Supreme Champion award at the AOA National Show for three consecutive years in a row -- all the ingredients were there for a born champion recipe, and they were expertly combined and brilliantly presented. Red Granites Val D Lsere is ONE IN A MILLION. Our first ever alpaca to reach vicuna fine fleece at 13.9 microns with intense curvature at 64.6, making profound impressions in the huacaya breeding programs in his first breeding years, and will continue for many more years to come, he is the TRUE definition of the ideal huacaya. His fleece has been described numerous times by international judges as the most highly developed fleece they have ever seen. Val D Lsere and his successes make him one of the most successful alpacas in US history and judges have said he is the best they have seen. He has a very bright, extraordinarily dense, fine fleece with a merino-type crimp style. Val is a very compact male with a very strong heavy bone structure. All of these traits are being seen in his offspring. He rapidly rose to a legendary level and is, without a doubt, one of the most significant alpacas ever to be born at Red Granite Ranch and possibly in the US, and is one of the most highly decorated alpacas in the world. Val D Lsere is truly revolutionary for the next generation of Huacaya fleeces and genetics. He has produced colors all across the spectrum, including rose and silver-grey. He has already produced AOA National Champions & Futurity Champions. He is shown to be EXTREMELY POTENT with producing top-quality animals no matter the color of the offspring or dam. If you get your hands on his genetics do not let go of them, they are PRICELESS. Offspring have sold for auction at high prices of $40K, $41K, and even $130K!! Considering only two of his offspring lay outside of the US, his lines are extremely favorable here in the US, so if you get a hold of his genetics do not let them go! Fiber and Fleece Description EXQUISITE in all respects. Merino and Vicuna's qualities are pushed together. Red Granites Val D Lsere is the Herdsire who is dominating the New Generation. He is a restricted herdsire, no outside breedings are offered. Offspring may be offered at auction or through private sales (on very rare occasions). 2022 #1 National High Point Huacaya Male 2022 #2, #7, & #8 National High Point Huacaya Female 2023 #10 National High Point Huacaya Female, Halter 2023 #3, #4, & #10 National High Point Huacaya Male, Fleece
Dam: MFI Peruvian Criativity - Deceased
Chisholm is proudly co-owned with Cory & Kim Wesson, of Sopris Alpacas, meaning he spends his time in Colorado year-round!! 2023 AOA National Light Male Reserve Color Champion! This young male is a up and coming ELITE stud with tons of incredible potential as he continues to mature. A world-classic combination of a PURE WHITE lineage and incredible PERUVIAN sires and dams lined up throughout his pedigree makes a fleece that is worth drooling for. Intense brightness, long staple, incredible fineness and density, and let' s not forget the overwhelming amount of consistency, he is the TOTAL PACKAGE. Red Granites Chisholm; Where can you find a male that has an accumulation of the finest and most significant white genetics in one pedigree. It was quite a surprise that he was born beige considering his PURE WHITE lineage, but we aren't complaining as he can now easily be put with any color. His sire, Creed (multiple championship wins including two wins at Nationals) is is son to Crescent Moon's Elite's Crescendo and El Nino's Accoyo Cassandra. Between Creeds parents we see: 6Peruvian Accoyo Elite, Peruvian Hemingway, PPeruvian Caligula, and PPeruvian Vengador, along with three outstanding Peruvian imported dams, all of which are white. On the dams, MFI Peruvian Criativity's side we see: Peruvian Hemingway, Peruvian Glacier, and PPPeruvian Natividad and three Peruvian imported white dams. The genetic potency here with Peruvian Hemingway showing up on both Chisholm's maternal and paternal sides is something we cannot wait to see. Chisholm is by far the leading son of Creed, we have yet to see his actual potency with breeding considering his young age but his show record as a juvenile speaks for itself; two reserve championship wins in halter and a color championship, plus judges' choice win with his juvenile fleece at a fleece show under Amanda V. with a amazing score of 88/100 points. Though not under AOA, he was awarded the Judges' Choice. Amanda has told us this male is one to watch in the future and will without a doubt be a ELITE herdsire prospect. Red Granites Chisholm exhibits an extreme fine, extremely bright, dense, and very consistent fleece which is seen in the extension into his extremities. He is a incredible looking male which he gets from all of the amazing sires and dams throughout his pedigree. Chisholm without a doubt will play important rolls in our show string and breeding program in the future. His first cria have arrived and WOW!!! We are very impressed with what he is doing.

Dam: Snowmass Quechua's Lass
Service Sire: Red Granites Chisholm - Closed
Snowmass Quechua was a unique and exquisite stud male derived from Snowmass' intensive and dedicate breeding program, where they described as the "ideal" representation of all that the strive for in breeding Huacaya Alpacas. Snowmass Quechua was the 2006 & 2007 Futurity Herdsire of the Year winner and sire to the Snowmass Matrix & Snowmass Best Man. The fact is that, Snowmass Quechua and Peruvian Hemingway together provide approximately 20% of this females genome, and while the incredible Peruvian Hemingway daughter, Snowmass Maree Love is represented maternally & paternally... The sire of this female was the first in the Snowmass program to produce a fleece finer than Vicuna, the embodiment of everything the Snowmass program desired in White Huacaya, and is celebrated among their highest achievements in breeding for Ultra Royal Alpaca: SNOWMASS LORO PIANA. Snowmass Logo Piano now stands at Ayria Alpacas in Canada creating amazing cria for not only them, but also their clients. Snowmass Quechua's Lass is the dam of this female. A direct daughter of Snowmass Quechua and Snowmass Highland Lass. Snowmass Quechua's Lass is still producing ELITE whites for Snowmass Alpacas. In fact, a full-sister to Loro Lass was born in 2019 (named Snowmass Best Lass) where she maintained a 16 micron fleece at 3-years-old! Snowmass Highland Lass was one of Snowmass' Highland lines that they highly treasured. They were strong bodied, well defined alpacas with great density and well proportioned bodies. Classic heads with fine dense wool production on top knot and into extremities. Highland Lass herself had a beautiful silky crimp style with a long staple. Highland Lass is one of the few females with champion Snow King and Snowmaster in line to add.... We can't wait to see what this girl does!

Dam: Red Granites Miss Conception
Service Sire: Red Granites Pantaleon
This solid gray girl has been quite the attention getter and conversation starter around the ranch and at shows... Miss Contrary is just a superb young female. She is correct when walking, shows correct proportions across her whole body, straight and square frame, and has a super feminine attitude to her. She is, in our eyes, a complete package female. She is also super-fine giving her an extremely soft handle that feels like clouds when you touch her fleece. Her uniformity and brightness are both second to none and should definitely be talked about. But, what makes her more unique is her staple length. She grows an impressive staple that shows impressive traits, and the judges have all agreed! Currently, Miss Contrary is a seven-time Color Champion winner, respectively. All of her champion wins have been under 6 different judges, including international judge and breeder; Judge Anderson (Pucara International)! Comments from judges include: “She is just lovely…her fleece is so soft with exceptional density levels”…“This is what you want; a Female who walks into the ring like she owns it”…“Congratulations on a winner…” Miss Contrary is by none other than our Red Granites Val D Lsere, who by now needs no introduction. Her dam, Red Granites Miss Conception, is one who needs to be noted. As one of our top black foundation dams, Miss Conception brings in the genetics of Crescent Moon’s Elite’s Crescendo and Greener Pastures Chocolate Thunder (3x Champion, Light Brown). Miss Conception is only 1/3 Black offspring by Crescendo, making her quite special. Besides her impressive genetics, Miss Conception won her classes in 2016 at two of the most prestigious shows in the United States: The Futurity and AOA National Show! So this *little* solid grey girl definitely has it going for her; both in the show ring & out of it, but considering her genetics - definitely not surprising! She’ll definitely make a difference in producing dark offspring, that’s for sure. She will be coming to our foundation herd this summer, unless of course she is snatched up by someone with a good eye! ;) If this animal or any other animal sparks your interest please email or call us today!

MFI Peruvian Criativity is a stunning white direct daughter of Mister Antonio. Criativity was one of Antonio's last offspring and the last of his offspring to be crossed with a direct daughter of Peruvian Glacier, an imported male from Peru who was acquired by Snowmass Alpacas, Don & Julie Skinner. Criativity has produced many top animals who go on to be top producers her at Red Granite Ranch. Pairing her genetic lines with any one of our Herdsires gives us so many advantages when breeding her. She stamps her offspring with fine, dense, bright, and uniform fleeces, all of them having gorgeous phenotype. She did attend a few shows and won a Reserve Championship banner during her show career. Histograms: (Year, AFD, SD, CV, >30, MC, SF) 2019: 23.2, 5.1, 22.2, 8.0, 43.6, 22.8 2016: 21.5, 4.8, 22.5, 4.6, 53.5, 21.2

Dam: Black Dog's Take Me To The Hop
MSA Valpolicella is an exceptional foundation female! MSA Valpolicella is a trail-blazing synthesis of genetics from the best colors lines in the huacaya breeding world. Her dam, is a direct daughter of 4Peruvian Altiplano Gold 6026, whose offspring are highly saught after. His reputation for consistently producing high levels of quality in his offspring is unmatched by most males. He has an amazing ability to pass on positive traits in fleece and conformation--with over 90% of his offspring (or those with his lineage) placing first and second in tough local and national competitions. A fine example of this would be his granddaughter, our MSA Valpolicella. Valpolicella is the daughter of Patagonia's El Trauco. A full Chilean Shackleton son known for his fine fleece. Trauco is an 8x color champion (including AOBA and All-American Futurity) who produces beautiful typey heads on his crias. His cria are winners at halter and fleece and exhibit elegant phenotype as well. Combining these two lineages created the perfect breeding female to use within a color program. Proof? Valpolicella was used within our foundation female breedings from 2009 to 2019. That is extraordinary for a female to be used within a program for 10 straight years and just goes to prove just how good of a producer she is. Five of her nine offspring have been used within our breeding program. Despite this female being a little old in age, she can still produce exceptional crias. She is still in healthy condition to be able to hold a few more crias. And for that reason we would sell Valpolicella with a free non-transferable breeding. With her genetics we would like to see her go to our back-to-back Dark Colored Offspring Futurity Herdsire of the Year winner: Red Granites Val D LSere. This is a steal folks, he has been closed to breedings since 2016 and offering a breeding with a female like this is simply unreal.

Red Granites Lady Rose is exactly what we wanted from this breeding! She is daughter of our treasured colored Crescent Moon’s Shiftin Gears daughter, Red Granites Lorena and our super-sire, Snowmass Matrix Rose. Breeding these two genetic lines brought fourth a long stapling, bright, extremely uniform colored fleece! We suggest breeding her to either Estates Passionate Fever or Red Granites Bad Boy for an elite FAWN colored cria or Red Granites Legit By Val D Lsere for BLACK!
Dam: 4Peruvian Blanca 6621
Crescent Moon's Legacy's Princess or "LP" as she is affectionately known as here at the ranch, is easily one of the most influential white females we picked up from Crescent Moon Ranch in 2014. Although shy of 10 years old at the time we purchased her, LP still held a super-fine fleece with amazing uniformity throughout all while having a cria at side. But that is oh so typical of the 4Peruvian Legacy daughters... LP is the product of two Peruvian imported alpacas, Legacy and Blanca. LP is one of the last offspring by two imported animals still alive. Just check out her offspring listed below and you can see why we picked her up from Crescent Moon despite coming into her teens....
Dam: Juicy Lucy
Lorena is a Shiftin Gears daughter form a true black dam. This female has a very pleasing fleece that is highly lustrous and exquisitely soft. Combine that with the fact that she grows a very long staple with fantastic uniformity of fineness and you have a quality alpaca. 2010: 15.3, 3, 19.4, 0.5

We sadly had to make the tough decision to put Wildcard down in May of 2020 due to a foot infection that we just couldn't fix. He left us with a beautiful brown daughter to carry on his legacy. Red Granites Wildcard is a genetically superior male. He has the correct conformation, head style, and uniformly fine and dense fleece with the perfect presence we look for in our herd. He is a macho but very gentle. His sire, ATV Adonnis was the 2012 Futurity Reserve Herdsire For Dark-Colored Offspring. He had 103 AOA Registered Offspring at the time of his death at 10 years of age, Adonnis was a cornerstone grey stud. ATV Adonnis was recognized as one of the most influential grey huacaya herdsires in the nation, shown through his outstanding fleece stats, eleven champion banners, award-winning offspring, and the improvement in every breeding he did. His dam, Ulio Hembra Juaka is a lovely silver-grey female sired by Mile High Deacon Grey.

Sadly we lost this beautiful boy, and had to put him down in the Fall of 2024. Red Granites Bona Fide carries through with one of the brightest fleeces from our 2024 cria crop, but that is easily a given considering his parents!! His dam, Snowmass Matrix Breckenridge is a direct daughter of Snowmass Matrix and is one of our cornerstone foundation females who has only produced the best offspring for us each time she is bred. His sire, Red Granites Legit, is a 21-time Champion Black Stud who is sired by our Red Granites Val D Lsere and out of Irish Meadows' My Lacy. These genetics are known for lingering fineness and uniformity traits without loosing sight of the other traits. Oooh, are you excited yet? We are!!!!

Dam: Red Granites Perfection
Adonnis is nothing short of AMAZING and covered in a beautiful grey fleece. Adonnis in mythology was a very handsome fellow, but he's got nothing on this Adonnis! We bought Adonnis in 2013 for a rather cheap price, along with a quarter of the Crescent Moon Ranch herd to help us improve our bloodlines. He did more than just that -- he put us on the maps. We sadly lost Adonnis on March 30, 2015. We were left with very few offspring, but have acquired his best daughters from Scott and Debbie over the years. He will be missed but remembered with his amazing offspring. We will be keeping Adonnis on our Herdsire row as a reference sire. With about 103 AOA Registered Offspring at the time of his death at 10 years of age, Adonnis was a cornerstone grey stud. ATV Adonnis was recognized as one of the most infuential grey huacaya herdsires in the nation, shown through his outstanding fleece stats, eleven champion banners, award winning offspring, and the improvement in every breeding he did. We take great pride in being able to have Adonnis in our herd, despite it being for a short period of time.
Dam: ATV Rose Pearl
A beautifully fleeced .38 Special son from a Mr. Roosevelt daughter and coincidentally the full brother to Crescent Moon’s Tennyson (also on our Hersire row). GPL has it all. His bone substance is second to none around here and his thick frame is just what we like to see on studs. Crescent Moon's Gun Powder & Lead is a proven gray-producing Herdsire you would be sorry to miss with breedings. He is an extraordinary Fleece Champion, Aussie .38 Special son who carries the impeccable, grey lineage of his dam, the one-and-only ATV Rose Pearl. The production quality of these two crossing lines is gray excellence incarnate. Crescent Moon's Gun Powder & Lead's production history is proof of his limitless gray/black potential. His first eight offspring all came from dams of these following colors: Medium Rose Grey, Bay Black, Medium Silver Grey, Medium Fawn, and Light Rose Grey. The offspring were all Medium Silver Grey, Medium Rose Grey and True Black. Prepotency for Black an Gray production is in his genes!! He himself was the 2013 Great Western Alpaca Show Fleece Grey Color Champion, thats at one of the largest shows in the U.S. Three years later (2016) with a 5-year-old fleece he took home the National Western Stock Show Grey Reserve Champion, lasting fineness proven. In 2021 his EPDs reveal he is in the Top 5% for Mean Staple Length and Fleece Weight!
Previously Co-Owned with Crescent Moon Ranch. Crescent Moon's Shiftin Gears; like his name, this Stud was an ELITE male who shifted things into gears, with PERUVIAN & ACCOYO genetics to produce fine superior heavy-fleeced alpacas. He was a direct son of 6Peruvian Accoyo Elite 5057 crossed with a Full Peruvian, Peruvian Geronimo G187 daughter to give him the consistency in his fineness over a touch of a heavy fleece weight that has weighted 14 pounds in 2010. He is one of great looks on top of his beautiful fleece. He was judges twice under the amazing Julio Sumar and placed very well. When having the chance to partner with Crescent Moon Ranch (Debbie & Scott Miller) to co-own this multi-champion superstar back in 2010 we could not turn the opportunity down. Its was not everyday you got your hands on a Peruvian/Accoyo male who is a direct son of 6Peruvian Accoyo Elite. His stud fee's were offered for $7,500..... Crescent Moon's Shiftin Gears was the epitome of genetic excellence, whose legacy has sadly ended on February 15, 2021. Crescent Moon & Red Granite Ranch made an incredibly tuff decision to put Shiftin down after we found his femur had shattered and was not fixable. Shiftin's progeny excelled in the show ring, earning championship banners across the U.S., including AOBA Nationals and the Futurity. His offspring proved to be the best in fleece weight, brightness, fineness, density, and consistency. We are very glad to have a few of his lead female and male offspring locked into our herd. Shiftin made a HUGE impact in the industry and we are very proud to be a part of this males legacy. Rest easy Shifty.

Crescent Moon's Tennysonis a beautiful dark brown Aussie .38 Special son who we managed to buy from Crescent Moon Ranch along with his full brother, Crescent Moon's Gun Power & Lead. His full brother, Crescent Moon's Gun Power & Lead, is a two-time Grey Fleece Champion. Tennyson is large boned well deviled male with a very dense fine fleece. We have bred Tennyson to all colors of females, mainly to add density and structure to that parting.
Dam: Crescent Moon's Blonde Bombshell
Greener Pastures Pearl Jam a son of Caligula's Accoyo Poseidon. When we saw the opportunity for a partnership with Scott & Debbie Miller (Crescent Moon Ranch) we could not resist it at all! Pearl Jam is a overall stunning white macho with great presence and a one of a kind character to add on. His fleece is uniform in color and extremely dense, with ultra-fineness and handle, and with an abundance of length, and with no doubt this Caligula's Accoyo Poseidon son offers the complete package for either the specialist breeder of white or indeed colors. He has produced a significant number of white progeny and, whatever the color, the quality and consistency of fleece being seen is nothing short of remarkable, with his progeny, even at such relatively young/mature ages, going on to win Judges Choice banners (Sire of the 2018 AOA National White Male Champion/2019 AOA National White Male Invited Res. Champion). Rarely do we find a white from a peruvian based imported linage male with this quality of brightness and consistency as well as staple length, that can actually stamp offspring the way Pearl Jam does, and even with color. The consistency of excellence in Pearl Jam's progeny is beyond refute. All carry the elite fiber characteristics every breeder wants, while also holding those traits throughout their life time. His son, Snow Diamond Callaway is a multi-champion, fawn male who was bought by EP Cambridge Alpaca Stud, they loved him! We can't wait to have some Val D Lsere/Legionnaire girls sent to Pearl Jam, the combo is bound to be potent. We co-own Pearl Jam with Scott and Debbie Miller of Crescent Moon Ranch. (Currently standing at Red Granite Ranch, and open for breedings.)

Since purchasing Kirwin at the 2012 Parade Of Champions auction we have grown from his offspring to extreme extents. He has been said to be one of Crescent Moon's favorite Rayo Del Sol sons. In 2004 the production class at Crescent Moon Ranch was 70% male. Little did Crescent Moon kniw that those male cria's would represent such a large part in their future. On that list are the names Shiftin Gears, Lunar Breeze, Adonnis, Copenhagen, Semper Fidelis, Prince Charming and of course Kiriwn to name a few. With just the names provided above they had amassed a total of 60 championships and reserve championships all across the country at Level 4 and Level 5 shows. Kirwin was a cornerstone in the group winning 13 of these championships/reserses on his own, the first 8 months of age and the last at almost three years of age. He is amoung the most decorated ever show and may be the most decorated brown male in the country. As a sire he has ived up to the hype. His crias have demonstrated beautiful phenotype, beautiful fleeces, an array of colors. champion and ribbion winners. Like his name sake, Kirwin has executed exellence. Jim Kiriwn was one of the greatest men that Crescent Moon had ever known and were he still with them today, their friend Jim would be proud. The same can be said for them at Crescent Moon Ranch.

Full Peruvian with Accoyo Felix and Hemingway as grandsires, Connagher brings a lot to any breeding. A phenomenal phenotype, Connagher has style, conformation, and beautiful heavy fleece. Connagher has serious competition around here for breedings, but he will get his share. A resource like this shouldn't go untapped. Connagher's fleece has been consistently tested over the last 13 years and his AFD has never gone above 21.6. His 2014 clip produced 7.5 total pounds with a 4.4-pound blanket weight. His 2014 AFD: 17.8 SD: 3.6 CV: 20.4 %>30: 0.6. Connagher is a male you put on a female to give her crias style, great conformation, density, and a lingering fleece fineness. In 2016 at the age of 15.5 Connagher still fills our hearts with amazement. His 2016 fiber clip put him in the EPD top 1% in AFD, SD, SF, and % of microns over 30. And may we mention that many of Connaghers offspring had an EPD in the top 1% in 2019. Very few of Connaghers offspring are ever offered to sell here at Red Granite Ranch. This is mainly because they all tend to maintain their fineness for a long time. So when we offer his offspring for sale take advantage of it cause it doesn't happen often. - - - - - With 39 Registered offspring (as of December, 27 2020) 21 have shown in any sort of form. All together they have won.. 6 COLOR CHAMPION 7 RESERVE CHAMPION 1 BEST BRED & OWNED - - - - - With great sadness we lost Connagher on November 27, 2020 and sadly had no covered females by him for 2021. He was a fantastic Peruvian herdsire who held a 15-19 micron number up till his death. He will be kept on our Herdsire row as a reference sire.

MFI Pistol is a very stylish sire that brings some very desirable traits into our breeding program. The conformation this male exhibits is highly desirable and each aspect is correct and his movement is sublime. He was first sold at the Breeders Choice Auction for $230,000. When he came back to Magical Farms in 2012 we could not refuse the offer to purchase him. During 2012 he was re-entered into the show ring and won two more color championships and a first-place finish at the AOBA show. Pistol had several other championships prior to being first sold, including a Futurity Grand Championship win. The jet black fleece this sire displays is very dense, bright, soft handling and long stapled. Even as he is coming up on 21-Years-Old, his fleece maintains excellent traits! With such a depth of known and proven bloodlines in his pedigree, MFI Pistol will bring additional density, color and style to everyones breeding program. His offspring are all very nice! His son, Red Granites Pecos Pete is now standing in Australia at EP Camridge Alpaca Stud!

Snowmass' description of Snowmass Premonition at the 2010 Genetic Advancement Sale: "Snowmass Premonition is one of the top 3 white males out of some 60 that we chose to bring to represent our herd sires at the Futurity 2008. He represented his sire, Snowmass Sub Zero, who is one of the finest white fleece studs in our breeding program. Every year this gets harder and harder for us as White alpaca is the one color of alpaca we work the hardest creating the most diversity in excellence and the rule allowing you to only show 3 is extremely restricting to showing the world our white breeding program and precisely why we show less than 10% of our progeny. Snowmass Premonition is one of our TOP white lineages that rises from the line that is absolutely proven o be one of the most consistent in fineness LOW CV high Curv and remains extremely bright and fine through the age and life of the alpaca. He has the head of his sire and Grandsire Snowmass Accoyocusani and is a blend of some of the finest Royal Whites.

Dam: 5Peruvian Tapara 8421
It is with great sadness that we announce the death of Reserved on October 14, 2021. This stunning dark roan stud with brilliantly bright fleece comes from highly selective combinations of elite Peruvian color genetics. Snowmass Reserved's sire, Snowmass Royal Reserve, linage provides indisputable excellence in colored huacaya alpacas. Two memorable "uncles" are Snowmass Royal Challenger and Snowmass XXXtreme. Snowmass Royal Reserves dam line is equally notable. Snowmass Reserved's paternal grand-dam, Snowmass Canagalli Rose, was a Futurity Champion and came from Peruvian Import, 5Peruvian Cangalli. The Cangalli breeders were very well known for some of the finest colored alpacas ever imported. Snowmass Reserved never placed below a first place in halter classes. Overall throughout his carrier, he had won five first-place ribbions and three Championship banners, two of which were awarded to him at the 2009 and 2010 Futurity, the other at the 2010 Great Western Alpaca Show. His long-lasting fine, dense, bright fleece always drove him to the top of his class, which is what he passes on to his offspring. Snowmass' description of Snowmass Reserved at the 2010 Genetic Advancement Sale: Snowmass Reserved is one of those cries we were excited about from the moment he was born. He was truly one of the most impressive dark colored males born to us in 2007. His name was easy as we knew right away he was a KEEPER so "RESERVED" became his name. His sire, Snowmass Royal Reserve, is a brother to Snowmass Royal Challenger and showed and stood hand in hand in Championships with Royal Challenger at each of the shows he was in. Snowmass Royal Reserve is unique to his brother in that his dam is one of our finest Peruvian Cangalli lines produced. Cangalli is a breeders name in Peru that proved to carry some of the finest color alpacas we had ever screened for purchase and why we named the first import we purchase from this breeder Peruvian Cangalli. We bred Cangalli to Accoao Snowmaster and produced Snowmass Cangalli Rose who took Color Futurity Champion in her day, all of which makes Snowmass Reserved's sire lineage so influential. Snowmass Reserved's dam, 5Peruvian Tapara is a highly selected and screened 5Peruvian import that we also selected to purchase for her very fine color fleece. With only 29 offspring registered under AOA they have won a total of 39 Championship banners and 58 First place ribbons.

Dam: CCNF Magdalena
We are now closing Legionnaire to outside breedings. With hi weight fluctuation and age we think it best to keep him in house. He has many sons working for us! To say we were excited to partner with Amber Autumn Alpacas with CCNF Legionnaire at the 2014 Breeders Edge Auction would be an 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 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.
Dam: Little Carmela
Red Granites Cricket is a stunning young herdsire prospect. He is exhibiting an outstanding level of fineness, coupled with excellent density as well as uniformity across his frame and well into his extremitites. He is showing a advanced fleece with a high frequency crimp style with soft handle and superb brightness. These fantastic traits all stand on a large, correct and true to type frame. Cricket did not come about by pure chance or luck. His sire, Accoyo America Kashmir, is a five-time champion, and multiple judges' choice winner and a PCA Hemingway-Accoyo Nautilus son. He is a leading stud at Little Creek Farm/Snowmass Alpacas and is consistent in producing top quality seed stock animals. His average micron number within his 2012 cria crop was 14.4 with an average SD of 3.1, THATS AMAZING! When pairing Kashmir with Little Carmela a Lancaster's Highland Chieftain daughter, we only expected the best. Little Carmela is a female that we consider to be one of the best producing females around. She exhibits a incredible fineness, and definitely has the ability to pass this trait on to her crias, along with an advanced fleece style, density, trueness to type, brightness and a great ability to produce color. Her medium fawn daughter; Red Granites Cinnamon by Val D Lsere (twelve-time champion, four-time judges' choice winner) sold for an incredible $40,000 to a Belgium breeder back in 2020 at the Amber Autumn Auction, she was the second highest seller overall and was the highest selling female of the auction. From this we can see that Cricket always had the potential to be an elite animal, but he has far exceeded the expectations. His first cria are nothing short but fantastic! He has many more breedings for next year as we have now fully seen his potential as a herdsire. He is completely unrelated to any of our animals - therefor we will be covering him on our Sizzy, Val D Lsere, Creed, and Bad Boy lines. Contact us to sceduale a breeding!

Red Granites Royal Patriot our newest gray Herdsire! With our Gray breeding program being rather small a few select males actually make it into our gray breeding program, lucky enough, Royal Patriot was able to snag a spot for that and has a few crias due for 2022. During his show career judges' had commented on how he looked like a white animal because of how light his grey coloring was. Unique enough, he barley qualifies as a grey due to him lacking the colored fibers most grey alpacas have, they said he was always the finest in the class but couldn't be placed high due to this. Sired by Snowmass Reserved, the Brown Male Color Champion at the 2009 Futurity & Combined Mixed Male Reserve Champion at the 2010 Futurity.

HWA Plantel's Promise was one of the very few colored females and also one of the very few who held grey genetics within her heritage that was a 6Peruvian Accoyo Plantel daughter. She was a lovely fleeced fawn grey female that became very dear to Snowmass Alpacas before they sold her at auction bred to Snowmass Conopa XXX. We sadly lost Promsie unexpectedly in July of 2011 right after she had her daughter sired by Snowmass Reserved in June of 2011, who later ended up passing away in 2014. Promise's daughter, Snowmass Conopa XXX Vail was our only hope on carrying on Promsise' genetics and she has done just that. Promise would've created many more wonderful foundation females for us just like her daughter, Vail who produced Val D Lsere. We are very sad to have lost her so soon but her legacy lives within most of our herd now.

Dam: La Finca's V V Cella - Sold
We sadly announce the death of Clear Cut. Red Granites Clear Cut is the only TRUE BLACK Val D Lsere son we still have on the ranch. He is one of the four BLACK males sired by Val D Lsere, making him even more special to us and letting him go is going to be hard. His Dam is no less than La Finca's V V Cella, a light fawn daughter of MSA Peruvian Very Victor and MSA Valpolicella. Cella's lineage is full of Peruvian and Chilean hucayas of color, getting her black genes from an imported male from Chile; Shackleton (maternal great-grandsire). Shackleton was owned by Alpacas de la Patagonia where he sired many outstanding crias of color, including two of there former herdsires: Patagonia's Neruda and Patagonia's El Trauco (MSA Valpolicella's sire), both multi-champion males. Clear Cut is one of the few crosses done between the animals in his lineage, he is the only BLACK from pairing his heritage! No white fibers are found throughout his body, he is a TRUE TRUE BLACK! Clear Cut has the longest fleece recorded from our Val D Lsere offspring. In 2019 as a juvenile he sheared off 5.06 inches of fleece (128.5 mm) and in 2021 as a 2-year-old male he sheared off 4.53 inches (115.0 mm) of fleece and 8.9 pounds of fleece came off of him! Impressive for any color but especially for a TRUE BLACK! He is the perfect stud to bring a balance of long, fine yield of fleece on a strong, large frame for black alpacas. His body is full of high frequency and very uniform black bundles of fleece, all which comes with superior density and exceptional brightness. As an upcoming 3-year-old he has not lost a stich in his looks and carries a unique and valued inheritance. This male will being you to new dimensions in putting Elite BLACK alpacas back on the maps with favored staple length, fleece weight, density and lasting fineness above all. He is currently unproven but we plan on testing him this spring season and trying him on some of our unrelated dark brown and black females. His price will go up when he is considered proven.
