31118149 Light Silver Grey One of Silver Elation’s yearling daughters, Sheer Heaven, achieved Grey Color Champion at the 2021 Alpaca Western Extravaganza show! Also one of his Juvenile daughters got a 2nd place in the Juv. Light Silver Grey class at the same show. Also previously many of his offspring have won blue ribbons and championships.
Silver Elation is a rare dilute silver gray with an incredibly soft, well bundled and consistent fleece without any spots. This male was born with a distinct Classic Silver Gray pattern which all but disappeared as his fiber dried. Every person who has seen him has been impressed by this amazing fleece that appears platinum in color with white in the neck, bib, face and legs.
When we took him to two very competitive shows in 2008, he was put into an indefinite class which did not allow him to show appropriately but he still won the Blue Ribbons.
Originally, I Proudly Co-Owned him with ALPACAS of Tualatin Valley! But now I completely own Silver Elation. You will get full ownership of him with this purchase!
Many of Silver Elation’s cria , have won 1st place and Gunsmoke won 1st and Reserve Color Champ at Alpacapalooza 2012 as did Sheer Heaven in 2021.at AWE.
As much as we really love Silver Elation, we do need to downsize our herd. He will be a great addition to your herd.
Oh and some sad news! Which is why I’ve reduced his cost! His knee on his back leg is hurting him and the vet that saw him thought that he could be repaired with a surgery at Oregon State vet hospital! He still has wonderful fleece so that way the $100 price is OK. If you purchase him and get his leg repaired he likely could be a good male again but I’m not completely sure! But for only $100 he is worth that for his fleece! Hope someone is interested in purchasing him! Only reason I’m willing to sell him is I have one of his wonderful males, Palladium! So I will get to keep his genetics!
Dam: Crescent Moon's Raylina ARI#
1223798 Medium Rose Grey Yes, Raylina is old but she still is a great producer! You will have free board until she weans her 2018 cria. His birth weight was 25.5# on 9/5, and as of 9/24 he already weighed 39.2. Awesome female we are only listing as we need to downsize.
Raylina is a very special female that we are proud to own. Not only has she been a winner in the show ring but she is a ranch favorite with her winning way and her WINNING offspring!
Raylina produces what we believe to be the "Premier Seed Stock" that we are striving for and she is a great mother.
She delivered her .38 Special female cria that was an awesome classic rose gray on Easter Morning at a whopping 26#. We named her Esther Rose, and she went on to win a Color Championship!
The following year, Raylina produced Romeo, and he won 2 Reserve Color Championships in two showings! He went on to sell at the Priority Action in 2015. The Next season, Raylina produced an awesome Silver Grey female, Uptown Girl, that won Reserve Color Champion at Alpacapalooza 2015 and then also sold at the Amber Autumn Auction in 2016!
Description
Thank you Terry and Donna of Utopian Farms for your purchase of Uptown Girl at the 2016 Amber Autumn Invitational Alpaca Auction. We will miss this amazing girl, but you will love her!
Skyline’s Uptown Girl has it all! This is no surprise given her Dam, Crescent Moon’s Raylina, a Reserve Color Champion who continues to produce color champions for us –three years in a row, and her sire, ATV Silver Elation, who has also produced numerous color champions himself. Skyline’s Uptown Girl is well conformed and has a gorgeous fleece that is extremely dense and bright, with a well-defined zipper crimp! Uptown Girl showed off for the judges at three halter shows in 2015 claiming the Grey Reserve Color Championship at Alpacapalooza, a 2nd at CABA Classic (behind Skyline’s Cutie Patootie Lot 48), and a 1st in Yearling Silver Grey FFH at NW Alpaca Showcase, this time ahead of Cutie! Both our auction girls are outstanding, as we like to bring our best. Uptown’s maiden breeding is included with her purchase. You can choose any of our spectacular herdsires. I’d suggest Snowmass Enlightened!
