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: Skyline's Peaches & Cream ARI#
31973366 Light Fawn ****Peaches is now available in our listed package!
On 9/10/19 Peaches gave us a beautiful female cria, likely a modern rose grey! This was exactly what we had hoped for with her breeding to Silver Elation. We will be keeping this cria. Peaches was rebreed to Black Gold, but Unfortunately she tested neg. for her pregnancy so we will rebreed her once our breeding season starts.
2018 - season we got another amazing cria from Peaches, but light Fawn not Grey this time and a boy. However he is our last Enlightened offspring so a very special boy! Now we have rebred Peaches to Silver Elation hoping for a repeat of her award winning 2015 cria, Nehalem.
SHE DID IT! 9/6/17 Peaches delivered an awesome Light Silver Grey Girl! We are so happy about this cria, we will be keeping her and we rebred her to Enlightened for her 2018 cria. I'm hoping for a repeat!
In 2015 Peaches delivered an amazing Modern Silver Grey male cria sired by ATV Silver Elation. This boy, Skyline’s Nehalem, has awesome fleece and a great look! He sold in 2017 and went on to win his new owners a blue ribbon at the 2017 Alpacapalooza. His 2016 AFD was 16.4! Not a surprise given Peaches genetics. Now he has won 4 -blues and 2 banners!
Skyline’s Peaches and Cream was one of those special cria that you just love. She is light fawn and has an impressive line-up of genetics. Her dam, Jezibel, was one of our outstanding Legacy daughters that produced amazing cria for us. Her sire was our Med. Fawn, Full Accoyo Centurion son, DiMaggio. Peaches became even more special to us as we lost both her parents, so she is one of a kind!
What we love about Peaches is her incredibly fine and bright fleece. Her 2011 AFD was 14.7 with an SD of 3.4. Also, it really is peach colored!
And Peaches is an excellent Mom, a total natural and so happy to have her own cria and no longer just the aunty! Peaches has a curious personality that makes you always notice her and it will be very hard to part with her but we need to reduce our number of females.
Description
SOLD: Thank you Whispering Songs Farm for you purchase of Nehalem.
This gorgeous Modern Dark Silver Grey has it all. His fleece is amazingly soft and has nice well-defined crimp and great density. In addition, he has the sweetest personality, one of our favorites! None of this should be a surprise given his parents. Skyline’s Peaches and Cream is one of our finest girls on the farm and she has spectacular genetics behind her, Legacy, Accoyo Express, and Centurion, El Nino, & Caligula. Silver Elation has equally impressive Grey genetics, Roosevelt, Shaquille, Quicksilver, and Silvio.
I was hoping for a grey with awesome fleece when I chose this breeding, and I wasn’t disappointed. We would love to keep this little guy, but we can’t keep them all and we had 5 grey male cria this past season. We believe he will mature into a spectacular herdsire for you, Don’t miss out!
2016 Histogram 16.4 AFD, 2.8 SD, 17.3 CV, & 0.3 %30u.
