AH Patronne

   Sire: Jolimont Peruvian Ivano   

   Dam: Jolimont Peruvian Talara

   D.O.B.: August 26, 2000

Patronne, himself a reserve grand champion, has produced many ribbon winning offspring, ranging in colour from white to black, including a champion and two reserve grand champions; now his grandchildren are winning in the show ring too  (11 of his grandchildren won ribbons in the 2011 Alpaca Ontario show).  However, of more importance than show winnings are his excellent attributes (backed by an excellent pedigree) that he passes on to his cria: the most important is his very fine fleece that has stayed fine with age (AFD of 17.5 at age 1 and AFD of 22.2 at age 10, with SD of 4.4 and CV of 19.8%) combined with excellent density: he still has a sheer weight of over 8 lbs. (in the bag) at age 10. He has good conformation, solid bone and a handsome head; he passes on his calm and pleasant personality to his cria as well.

Armani Silver Cloud Armani

   Sire: Jolimont Peruvian Alpamayo

   Dam: Bolivian Arani 

   D.O.B.: July 25, 2001

If you are looking for those famous Alpamayo genes in eastern Canada, here they are. Armani, a Grand Champion at the 2003 Alpaca Ontario (AO) show, has followed in his well-known sire’s footsteps: his fleece has a pronounced high frequency crimp, is very dense and bright, and has stayed fine with age. (Fibre stats 2010: AFD 25.3, SD 5.7, CV 22.7%).  He excels at passing on his highly desirable fleece characteristics.  He has produced numerous ribbon winning offspring, including one of the colour champions at the 2010 Alpaca Ontario show.

Cinder BAR
Sire: Kelowna's Sundance Kid
Dam: Gemini Bar
D.O.B. : July 2, 2004

 
If you are looking for a proven stud with an excellent pedigree, and exceptional fleece characteristics in a dark colour, Cinder Bar is the one. His sire is the well-known Kelowna’s Sundance Kid, producer of many show winning offspring; the Kid is an Alpamayo son, and Cinder has that trademark density, brightness, and high frequency crimp, as well as fineness. Cinder’s dam is a Peruvian Pistachio daughter. Cinder’s AFD at age 1 was 21.2 and at age 6 it was still a very respectable (for such a dark colour) 26.2. From his show career out west spanning three years Cinder has several first and second place ribbons as well as a Reserve Championship. He has show winning offspring out west; his first cria in Ontario were born in 2010 and his son just won a first place ribbon in a class of 11 juvenile black males at the 2011 Alpaca Ontario show.
S.Dream's Nascar

Sire: Aztec Outback
Dam: S.Dream's Fabrege
D.O.B.: June 22, 2005

Both of Nascar’s parents have stayed fine with age.  Nascar is a big-boned well-conformed alpaca with a handsome head.   His fleece is very dense with a good staple length, giving him the highest shear weight on the farm in 2010; his fleece also has a well defined high frequency crimp and very little guard hair.

His first cria arrived in 2010 and have turned out exceptionally well; they have inherited his positive attributes as well as his very placid temperament.
