Fox is going on 17 and acts like he's 10. If you want better fineness EPDs and uniform, fine, pigmented gray fleeces with lots of crimps per inch and essentially no guard hair, he's the one! This line produces lingering 13 to 19 micron pigmented gray fleeces...consistently. Fox's first five fleeces were combined into one lot to make yarn at Heart and Soul and they commented on the uniformity of the lot. Thanks to his sire, Royal Bronze, Fox is a master at overall uniformity, removing guard hair and fining down fleeces and adding more crimps per inch, good staple length, along with deep and vivid colors. He's a SILVER GRAY, SNOWMASS BRED, AOBA NATIONAL COMPOSITE CHAMPION and well proven to produce healthy, correct, typey progeny! He is highly ranked for other traits too. He virtually removes all guard hair, including belly and bib. We attribute this amazing ability to his sire, Snowmass Royal Bronze, who is recognized by Julie Skinner as having recognized as having strong vicuna traits. Density? He has royal fine daughters (see Dream Catcher) with 4+ pound tui blankets and SDs in the 3s. Character? Gray daughter, Mellona, is 14.5 afd, 3.5 cv; 59 curve (not a typo) @ 21 mos. and then a 63 curve the next year! Uniformity? Hardly anything to skirt out of his progeny's fleeces. Offspring have very consistent, uniform and high yielding fleeces...Little to no skirting is needed for these big blanket fleeces. Primary and secondary fibers are very similar, even across colors in the gray fleeces, most of which are pigmented silver grays. In every offspring you will see higher frequency & amplitude crimp. ZERO to minimal guard hair...no matter the dam or color of the cria. You'll likely never see any guard hair on the belly of a Fox offspring. Soundness and health, correct phenotype, conformation and movement. Even dispositions and very intelligent...and even a few silly personalities. Certified Sorted graded Fox's 3 y.o. champion for "WORSTED applications". No W, LF or MF crias and no blue eyes. -Gray dtr, Kristiana (sold at AOBA auction): EPDs 2% fineness and placed: RC, 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th; bought her back in 2024. -Gray son (Irish Meadows) - 1st Futurity. -Black dtr.

AOA# 36208340DOB: 5/31/20223 yrs

Crescent Moon’s Peachee Keen is a fantastic addition to our grey program. He is already proven and now breeding at Alpaca Country Estates. He is of excellent quality and loads of grey in his pedigree. Peachee Keen is a beautiful male of moderate size with a full head, good coverage, and proud presence. We absolutely love his fleece. It is very uniform with a high-frequency crimp with moderate to high amplitude. It is a fine fleece carrying great brightness, good staple length, superb density, and an excellent handle. The above traits brought Peachee success in the show ring. He is an 8x champion and has won 12 blue ribbons. This is no surprise as he is a fifth-generation champion. His sire is 8x champion, Crescent Moon’s Kolbe who has produced many champions. Peachee’s linage contains Crescent Moon’s Wilkinson, Accoyo America Jason, Royal Fawn, Rayo Del Sol, Crescent Moon’s Aquinas, ATV Adonis, and more. With Peachee Keen unrelated to many grey lines at our farm and in some areas of the country, he is a great option for breeding for grey or black. His half sibling, Estates Dark Venom, is a 10x Champion (including 2024 AOA National Black Male Fleece Reserve Championship with his juvenile fleece)! It will be exciting to see his first offspring in 2025. Contact us to add Peachee’s quality and lineage to your breeding program, and watch for his crias on our future show strings!

Description

Gray breeders have commented that Truffles is a beautiful female with a beautiful fleece. Her fleece exhibits excellent character tail to ears-fineness, crimpy primaries, color, density, brightness, long staple, a soft handle & an absence visible guard hair. Yocum-McColl said that her fleece is a rare, true (pigmented) gray and very nice, long, fine and silky. Truffles' pedigree is consistent for maintaining phenotype, quality fleece & fineness beyond five years. She is a wonderful producing dam for us & has outstanding offspring no matter who we breed her to. Her sire, Snowmass RRoyal Fox (2010 AOBA Gray Composite Champion), is from Snowmass' Royal Bronze and Casanova bloodlines. He's a full Peruvian with '98 imported true black and maroon granddams, so he's unrelated to all other gray bloodlines! Truffles' dam was a multiple champion & blue ribbon producer. Her third fleece earned a blue ribbon winner over a Futurity champion male in 2000 (judge, Julie Skinner). She was the best daughter of P. Andrajo (Alianza sire of Mr. Roosevelt who sired Crescent Moon's Donato). Her paternal sister, Reyna (MSG @ 15.6 m), placed 1st at Alpacapalooza '12. They are Fox's two best gray daughters so far. Paternal Brother, Graphite - 1st Futurity 2012! Her 3/4 maternal sister is Carmelina, a Res. Champ. Her maternal brother is Constantino, is a Champion who won blue & purples for 5 years. Offspring: On 11/7/13, Truffles gave us ESTATES SILVER TITAN, a stunning MSG male with gorgeous, buttery fleece sired by NeverSummer's US Steel. Silver Titan won Color Champion at the 2015 California Classic. He also brought home blue ribbons at the 2015 California Classic, 2014 Northwest Alpaca Showcase & 2014 AlpacaMania halter shows & 2015 West Coast Show for Walking Fleece. On 10/19/14, Truffles presented us with ESTATES TITANIUM, a spectacular LSG male sired by NS Magic Flight. Titanium won Color Champion at the 2016 California Classic & Reserve Champion at the 2017 Buckeye Show. In addition, Titanium brought home blue ribbons from the 2017 Buckeye, 2017 CABO, 2016 California Classic & 2016 AOA National Shows! On 4/20/16, Truffles gave us ESTATES THANE, a handsome LSG male sired by Chief Grey Feather. Thane won 1st Place ribbons at the 2016 ABI & 2019 Quebec Show in halter & WF. He won 1st & Res Champion at the 2018 Rockton Fair Show and 1st & Res Champ at the 2019 Annual Alpaca Ontario Spring Show. (*Color Champ at both shows was our Estates Silver Magic). On 2/7/18, Truffles presented us with ESTATES SUPER SONIC TIFFANY, a dynamite DSG female out of Judges' Choice & 15x Champion, A Paca Fun's Super Sonic. On 8/25/20, Truffles gave us ESTATES PURE PASSION'S TANZANITE, a beautiful MB female out of our amazing champion producer, Snowmass Pure Passion. On 9/18/23, Truffles delivered ESTATES SILVER TRUFFLES, a lovely LSG female sired by our Crescent Moon's Casimir.
