838282 Medium Silver Grey Sired by Danko who is a phenomenal silver grey herdsire. He is well-known in the alpaca world for throwing champions of all colors, especially grey and black. He has excellent strong bone structure, extensive fiber coverage and passes a typey conformation on to his offspring. The fleece of his cria tend to exhibit very uniform and tight crimp throughout the blanket and have done exceptionally well in the show ring. Amazingly, he has sired at least one champion at AOBA in each year since 1999 in a range of colors from fawn, to brown, black and grey.
Danko was Sire of the high-selling alpacas at the 2000 AOBA auction.
Eponine had fall 2006 cria from 2004 National AOBA Gray Champ Peruvian BAM BAM. Her 2005 micron results were very good at:
MC=22.8, SD=4.6, CV=20.2, CF=94.7, Curve=44.7(40)
Her 2006 cria Pebbles was born 9/18/06 a medium fawn female weighing 18.2 pounds at birth. This cria has breath taking crimp and density much like our previously owned Seena's Goldilocks who took the Reserve Color Championship at the Nationals in 2004. Pebbles will be consigned to a high end auction in 2007.
Eponine was bred to Snowmass Nova on 12/7/06 and just had a beautiful Nova son born 10/17/07. Her son has been sold as a herdsire.
She was bred to Oro Negro a solid black Champion full Peruvian Herdsire we own on 11/21/2007 and just produced a female beauty called Zodiac's Black Widow who is a Champion.
She was rebred to Oro Negro a solid black Champion Full Peruvian Herdsire we own and had Sabine in 2009 who is a Champion too.
She was bred to Snowmass Enlightenment on 4/15/10 and had a future herdsire grey male Enlightenment's Enrique.
She was bred to Oro Negro for the 3rd time (all crias have been Champions)in 2011 and had a dark silver grey male Achilles in 2012.
In 2014 she is being bred to our super dense, multi champion fawn male Solariego.
