We couldn't have ordered up a more desired Legato Grigio son to carry on our "modern" grey breeding program. Duke Ellington is out of one of our very best production females. He is a stunning "blue roan". We expect that he will show the same pattern of dominant grey inheritance as his sire, RR Legato Grigio. LG has been one of the most prepotent males that we have worked over the years and his production rivals that of his renowned sire RR Gun's A'Blazin'. He has had a very strong showing against competition and has superlative analytics in his skin biopsies done through Ian Watt: Follicle density: 68.9/cm2 S/P: 10.5:1 in skin primary micron: 25.0 SD 3.3 In skin secondary micron: 20.7 SD 3.0 We could not give Duke the work he deserved on our ranch and finding a new ranch during a pandemic was not easy so we made the difficult decision to geld him to ease his hormonal desires and maintain his stunning, gorgeous soli medium silver grey fleece.

Isabella is a RR Gun's A'Blazin' daughter who has analytics that are "outasight". Check out those serial histograms for consistent fineness. A micron under 22 at age 6 is impressive...a comfort factor of 96%, is ridiculous. After 4 pregnancy, she still has only 4% of her fibers over 30 micron! In terms of genetic predilection for fiber production, her skin biopsy, at 23 months, shows a set of numbers that we would love to see across the herd (reference to Alpaca Consulting USA, Ian Watt): Follicle density: 61.8/cm2 Secondaries/Primaries: 13.8:1 In-skin mean primary diameter: 22.1 SD 2.3 In-skin mean secondary diameter: 19.3 SD 2.2 A very dense fleece, very high S/P but exceptional differential between secondary and primary fibers in the skin about to emerge of 2.8 mm...and remarkably low standard deviations in the individual fiber populations. Bred to Dizzy Gillespie for 11/2/20 cria We need room and she is priced to sell!

Touchstone is a legend. After a brilliant show career he established himself as one of the most pre potent studs in our 16 years of breeding. His last show was at age 4 where he Championed with a commendation as having the finest fleece in the color class juveniles included! His crias have consistently inherited the uniformity, brightness, definition and outstanding length Touchstone maintains. They too, with limited show exposure, have taken Championships. His mark on our herd improvement has been indelible. He has raised the bar...
