Northern Mystery's Inti
Huacaya, Jr. Herdsire (Male), Unproven | Light Fawn
ARI# 35543046, D.O.B. 6/5/2021, Full Peruvian
Sire: BR Rum's Bocelli ARI#
32745429 Light Fawn To say that Bocelli holds a special place in my heart would be an understatement. He was produced by Ernie and Denise Gamroth at Battle River Alpacas, and his quality is a testament to their breeding program. His sire is Hummingherd's Rum Runner, a PC Running Late son; and his dam is BR Belicia, out of RGA Miguel and Monterra's Bellana, well known champion and champion producers in Canada.
Bocelli is a well put together male who displays an attractive, true to type head style. Judges have always remarked on the high degree of brightness and organization in Bocelli's fleece, its length, and the character that carries throughout from topknot to tail. He continues to maintain a very fine and dense fleece overall. He has produced several silky-fleeced cria to date (his pedigree includes several notable silky producers), with many of Bocelli's offspring displaying above average staple lengths across the blanket and into the neck, in addition to uniformity in micron, style and organization across the blanket. His cria can be identified day or night by their outstanding lustre alone.
Having been tested on a range of females, he has proven himself to be a reliable complement to every pairing in passing along his traits without sacrificing colour. To date, all but one of his cria have been the same colour, or darker than their dams. His extremely mild, sociable personality makes him wonderful to work with and be around, alongside his offspring who share his good nature.

30993136 White Legacy is a testament to the breeding program she comes from. She has an amazing fleece, with fine, tight popcorn crimp and a buttery soft handle. We just cannot get over the density of this little girl, or the fact that her crimp extends from her cheeks down through her legs.
Her dam Allure is a proven producer of both colour and quality. With several ribbon winning cria on the ground, including some pretty hefty males who are making their names as studs, it stands to reason that Legacy comes from a good background.
When we look at her, we see that she is maturing into a lovely animal. She is quite upright in her posture, and moves like royalty. While not as hefty in her frame as her year-mate Themis, she still has a pleasingly solid frame. She has a lovely phenotype overall, and we couldn't be more pleased to have her in our breeding program.
Now, when her fleece is opened is when you can really see the quality inherent in her genetics. This girl has a lovely, high frequency, high amplitude crimp style that is uniform across her fleece— including her lower legs, neck, into her topknot and even up in her cheeks. He fleece is bright, and buttery soft, with well organized locks throughout. Legacy is at once consistently fine, well organized and dense, and her cria are carrying on these traits in spades!

Description
We knew from previous pairings between Legacy and Bocelli that they were capable of producing something really quite special-- and when Inti hit the ground, there was absolutely no doubt that he could check those boxes.
Inti is moderate in his build, with a correct frame, solid bone, and athletic movement. Bright, long stapled, with eye catching style to his fleece, Inti is displaying consistency across his blanket in both micron and length. His fleece maintains a medium to high frequency, high amplitude crimp style from skin to tip, quite literally from his topknot throughout his blanket and into his extremities. Most recently during the 2024 CNASF, judge Jacob Hart commented on Inti's primaries, reporting that they are very similar to his secondaries in quality, displaying crimping and indicating the signs of advanced fleece development, which, for an animal growing his 3rd fleece we were quite thrilled to hear (and see!).
