AA Arounds Black Jack's Autumn
Huacaya, Female, Proven | Light Brown
ARI# 32820812, D.O.B. 10/24/2013,
Sire: HVLA Black Jack ARI#
1191011 True Black Jack has four generations of true black on his sire's side. His dam is HVLA Jill out of Snowmass Peruvian Cashmere a DRAMBUIE son and HVLA Nicola a true black. Lineage?.....'nuff said.
This big boned young man obviously has his superfine fleece passed down on his dam's side. How often do you see a 16.8 micron fleece in a black, even at 1 year of age? If that's not enough, he's very dense and shows well defined crimp and incredible luster. Jack had his follicle biopsy done by Dr Jim Watt in Australia: He has 2 crimps per cm and ZERO medullation, EVEN in his primary follicles. He is retaining his fineness into his fourth year!. NEWS FLASH!!! THE 2007 OFDA 2000 fiber testing has identified HVLA BLACK JACK AS THE FINEST BLACK IN HIS AGE GROUP OF 58 HUACAYAS, 37-48 MONTHS OF AGE. AND....JACK WAS 46 MONTHS AT THIS SHEARING!! Jack keeps getting better with age. As he matures, his fleece is holding up and mellow temperament remains unchanged. No wonder that in awarding him Color Champion at just under age 3 at the California Classic, judge Dawn Brooker stated " I'd love to have 30 just like him in my pasture.
Jack now has several stunning cria on the ground. Jack is proudly co-owned with Mark and Debbie Emery of Brookfarm Alpacas in Glen Ellen,Ca. If black is what you are looking for, look no further!

Service Sire: OVA Peruvian Crisdean the Explorer ARI#

Alpacas All Around is extremely grateful to Pam and Rick Brady for selling us this incredible junior herdsire. He is presently busy at work, having settled two females, and looking for the chance to prove his potency. Dont miss the opportunity to add these color genetics to your herd
As Rick Brady described, "Crisdean is another young Junior Herdsire out of our outstanding herdsire OVA Kiernan of St. Andrews. His dam BF Nicoletta is one of our original foundation females and one of our most consistent producers. Crisdean was born on Columbus Day 2010 hence the name OVA Peruvian Crisdean the Explorer.
Crisdean is really the spitting image of his sire with deep, dark rich brown fleece with black points on his ears and muzzle. His fleece has been referred to as "buttery soft" by judges. He carries extreme high frequency crimp consistently across his entire body. Overall his coverage and overall fleece character singles him out in our herd. In his modest show history Crisdean has done extremely well winning his first Color Championship at the 2012 Gold Country Gathering Alpaca Show and a first place ribbon at the 2012 California Classic Show while often competing against his sibling males."
November 2014 - Crisdean's first cria are on ground - all three females - very dense and curly. He is showing us he can do it all - brown, white and dark fawn!
