In 2015 we decided the time was right to bring a herdsire of the highest quality into our herd. After much consideration we pulled the trigger and bought half interest (proudly co-owned with Snowmass Alpacas LLC) in Snowmass Velvet Touche (Son of Snowmass Touche (Sire) and Snowmass Royal Splendor (Dam)). We loved him SOOO very much we bought the other half. He is now solely owned by Happy Hounds Alpaca Ranch.

This extremely pre-potent male has gifted us with amazing cria's in every color from White to Rose Grey. He is currently closed to outside breedings but if you want to bring these awesome genetics home please look at our dams pregnant by him, ask about 2015-2017 cria crop sired by him, or bid high for and breeding to him for AOA. 2015-AFD-21.3, SD-5.1, CV-23.8%, >30-4.5%-Grid Sample 2016-AFD-21.5, SD-4.8, CV-22.3%, >30-3.9% 2017-AFD-20.9, SD-4.4, CV-21.3%, >30-2.5% 2018-AFD-20.7, SD-4.3, CV-20.6%, >30-2.4%

We had the pleasure of purchasing this girl at the LAST Parade of Champions held in Oregon and could not be happier. This girl is rock solid. She has amazing conformation that is combined with an incredibly high character fleece that is bright, dense, and has an amazingly soft handle. Tanzania was born with an impressive pedigree- Sire is the amazing 3 time AOBA Brown Color Champion Accoyoc America Jason and her dam is Accoyo Nautilus daugthter. It was a no brainer for us to buy her to breed our 6 time CC/RC 38's Totem NS. We are so looking forward to that cria. 2013 Histogram-AFD 18.6, SD 3.2, CV 17%, Fiber>30 0.5%
