HERDSIRES are males that have the superior characteristics that are imperative to produce a high quality herd.  Their strong outstanding genetics often produce excellent offspring when they are bred with our Value Females.  FUTURE HERDSIRES are already demonstrating all the desirable characteristics but have not yet reached breeding age.

Meet the 2007 AOBA National Color Champion in composite, MFI Peruvian Ensign!  Multiple champion Ensign is an outstanding male who has never finished less than first place... and he is awesome!  He is still taking home the blue ribbons -- he took first place at the 2008 Empire Fleece Show with an 18.5 for fineness and handle at over four years of age!

His lineage, fleece and conformation are impeccable.  His sire, Peruvian Donovan, is the fawn son of Accoyo PPPeruvian Augusto, and he is one of the offspring that made him so famous.  Ensign's grand dam, 5Peruvian Duranza, was hand selected in Peru and remains one of the best fawn females in the country. Ensign's dam is a gorgeous daughter of PPeruvian Leon, the darkest fawn Accoyo male in the United States.

Ensign is a stunning robust male with extremely fine, dense, crimpy  fiber and a phenotypically perfect conformation and head style... he is ready to take your farm's colored breeding program to the top.  Breed him to black, brown, fawn or white to create some incredible colored crias!

A special bonus!  Many of the females on our Sales List include a FREE breeding to Ensign and FREE rebreedings until you get an Ensign daughter of your own!  Click here to see them!

Martino is an extraordinary half-Accoyo male who has won multiple awards for his conformation and fleece.  His sire, White Wizzard, was personally selected by Mariah Alpacas (now Mi Madre Alpacas) at Don Julio's Accoyo Estancia in Peru.  Judges have commented on the "excellent density, character and consistency" of Martino's fleece along with his "very pleasing style, very strong form and excellent balance and proportion."  One judge commented that his fleece is "overwhelmingly bright with extremely uniform composition and style, and a very appreciative handle."   The best part is that he consistently passes all this on to his offspring -- when it comes to greatly improving females, Martino is your man!

Incan Treasure in the BEST True Black Yearling shown at the Coastal Classic, the BigE, PAOBA, North American and the 2009 AOBA Nationals!  He is the BEST Bred and Owned Dark Yearling shown at the Coastal Classic and the BigE... and he has consistently been the top placing dark alpaca at other shows when the class has not been divided into lights and darks... at the 2009 AOBA Nationals he stood fourth after two fawns and a beige (Snowmass and Park View Alpacas) and ahead of the whites.  The judges have loved the  fineness, density, brightness, and consistent well-defined character of his fleece... and although they have looked very carefully, they have not found one white fiber, which makes him especially valuable in a black breeding program!  In addition, he is out of two outstanding black parents who both have a lineage dominated with black and gray, which significantly increases his ability to throw black offspring. 

Incan Treasure has already shown a definite interest in the girls and we expect that he will start breeding by early fall.  Because we have been approached by a number of breeders who want to add his outstanding quality to their black breeding program, we are offering an introductory pre-breeding special... please see below.

INTRODUCTORY PRE-BREEDING SPECIAL:  $1500 -- IN 3 CONVENIENT PAYMENTS
 1/3 to reserve breeding, 1/3 when breeding date is booked, and 1/3 at initial breeding
Breeding must be  used by 12/31/2010
