Sire: Estates Sakima's Braxton ARI#
35575078 True Black We've been searching for a black herdsire to cover our Captain Midnight, Contender and Chicago offspring. We think Braxton is our guy.
We are so excited to announce that Braxton has been awarded the Color Championship in the Black Male Invited Champions at the 2021 National Alpaca Show in Grand Island Nebraska. Thank you to our partner Lynn Edens for showing Estates Sakima's Braxton. It is interesting to note that Braxton's sire, Patagonia Estates Sakima won Reserve Champion Black Male at the age of 69 months at this same show. That says a lot about the future.
Braxton and his wonderful combination of genetics are exciting for the future of black (and grey) alpacas here at Cinco C's Alpacas and Little Creek Farm Alpacas.
Braxton won again at the 2022 AOA National Alpaca Show in Ft Wayne, IN. He was awarded 1st and Champion Black Male in the Invited Champions Class for 2022. He's now back to work and we anxiously await his first group of crias.
Thank you to all you folks who have inquired about breedings to Braxton. Braxton's breedings are closed. Both farms have females bred to him for sale. His first crias have arrived and they stunning! Of his 14 registered crias 11 are TB and the other 3 are DB. There are two champions so far and I'm betting on more to come. The crias I have had my hands on are all very uniform with very bright, dense fleeces. We're excited to see the next round of crias from Braxton.

Dam: 5C's Classy Midnight Affair ARI#
35476139 True Black Black Midnight's very last cria before his untimely death.
Classy's TB fleece won a blue ribbon at the 2018 National Fleece Show and 2nd behind the Champion at PAOBA. Put this fleece on a nice square frame and you've got Classy Midnight Affair. Classy is maturing very nicely.
Classy's first cria is a beatufiul black male, sired by Autumnsun's Black Maelstrom. Born during storms from a hurricane, his name is 5C's Category 4. He's small but looks quite promising. Classy's 2022 cria sired by Braxton is exciting as well. Watch for photos of Cavalier.
Classy recently delivered a beautiful TB female sired by 2022 National Champion APP OSA Pherocity. We have named her 5C's Couture.
See photos
Classy will be bred to Braxton in the spring.

Cavalier is Braxton's first son! Dense doesn't even come close to describing his fleece. We are anxiously watching this TB male grow up. He's still young but very exciting. Oooooooo the fleece! For those of you paying attention to color genotyping.....this guy is non-dilute.
