Nikos
is an exceptional, half-accoyo, showy son of the renowned half-accoyo silver
grey herdsire Aussie Rockford, owned by Peaceful Valley Alpacas in Oregon.
Nikos is also out of one of the top quality grey females in
the nation, Peaceful Valley Priya, bred and owned by Peaceful Valley
Alpacas. Both of these alpacas are highly regarded winners of numerous blue
ribbons. Nikos has outstanding conformation, a well-shaped beautiful head,
extreme coverage and a dense topknot. His fleece is very, very fine and
bright, with good architecture and a gorgeous dark silver grey color. He
has well-defined narrow crimp throughout his fiber - all the way up his
neck and into his topknot. Nikos
is one of the most eye-catching and stylish grey males we have ever seen, with
fantastic conformation, coverage, presence, movement and superb fiber. His
genetics are now only available to customers, or through his offspring.

How many Champion-producing full Peruvian white males can also produce solid BLACK offspring?! Tundra is an excellent white male with wonderful conformation, coverage and presence. To complete the package, he has beautiful fiber, with extreme character, luster and bundling, plus outstanding density. Produced from the ideal match, breeding Marcela, the dam of "Show Me The Money" and "Silver Dollar", to Presidio, an outstanding Caligula son, Tundra is now proven to produce solid black, and his dam and sire have already produced some of the best colored alpacas in the nation. His sire, Presidio has multiple "Get of Sire" wins to his credit - his crias had won over 50 color championships and 80 blue ribbons at Level 3+ shows by the time Presidio was only 7 years old, firmly establishing him among the elite ranks of prepotent sires. Tundra's maternal half-brothers, "Mo" and the grey "Silver Dollar", are both exceptional colored herdsires, renowned for throwing top-of-the-line greys. In his first three shows, Tundra demonstrated that he too is destined for greatness, placing second in three very large, white, full-fleece halter classes, the most competitive classes of the alpaca world!

MacDhui
is descended from a long and impressive line of greys and blacks. His
sire, Request the Best, is one of the most spectacular grey herdsires in
the country, a multiple blue ribbon winner who placed first at the AOBA
Nationals for three successive years. From his black dam, MacDhui has
inherited perfect conformation and a grey and black pedigree going back
four generations, including SA Silverado and The Silversmith. MacDhui’s
most recent fiber analysis is AFD 22.3; SD 5.2; CV 23.3; % > 30 microns
= 8.6%. He is an extremely calm and good-natured herdsire, who rules the
pasture with his presence, not untoward aggression. MacDhui has incredibly
dense, medium silver grey fiber and AOBA winning genetics to go with his
gentle disposition and his first offspring hit the ground in 2003.

Meriadoc, arrived on November 5,
2008 - nicknamed
Butterfinger at birth, as he has the colors of a caramel and chocolate
bar mixed throughout his blanket! Meri
is the full Peruvian son of Blush, a blue ribbon-winning true maroon dam
and Tundra, a multiple award-winning white son of Peruvian Presidio. His
sire, Tundra, covers black, and Meri has dark grey gums and a maroon dam,
so has strong potential to produce colored offspring. Meri's fiber is just
awesome - extremely dense, uniform, soft-handled, long-stapled and crimpy.
He has the fiber character and quality of a white, and won a blue ribbon
and Reserve
Championship in full fleece halter at his first show, the 2009 Level IV
VAOBA Expo, when he was only 11 months old. He has been shown in performance and costume classes by a 7 year old child,
and is remarkably good-natured and easy to handle. If you are looking for a wonderful
Champion male with
the potential to upgrade the fiber of your colored dams, then this is your
boy. He has some of the best fiber we have produced in
our 9 years of breeding alpacas!

Magnus
is the last of his full Accoyo sire's line, and has fineness, crimp and
luster in abundance. He is particularly exciting for us, as the grey
markings around his face, and his dark toenails, combined with the color
in his heritage, suggest the potential to produce
elite-fibered colored alpacas. His dam, Goldie
is a full Peruvian light fawn female, with crimp, fineness, good
density and handle, and beautiful consistency to her fleece, which earned
her the second place ribbon in a very competitive 2003 AOBA Nationals fleece
show. A great mother and milker, Goldie has a perfect bite, solid conformation and a gorgeous
head and top knot, and is proven to produce colored offspring. Magnus was
sired by the full Accoyo Trujillo Alto Peru (deceased), an impressive son of
Ppperuvian Mr President and a medium fawn dam, 4Peruvian Eurynome.
Trujillo had incredible coverage and density, accompanied by a consistent, tight
crimp, and at 5
years of age, his fiber was still exquisite - 18.6 AFD with an SD of 3.9 and
0.7 % of fibers over 30 micron. Available for sale with retained breedings.
