Sire: Accoyo America Apocalypse ARI#
851697 White Apocalypse had been one of the most prepotent offspring of PCA Hemi-Accoyo Nautilus. Starting out with a multiple championship show career Apocalypse has produced significant results as a herdsire.
Placing in the top 10 white males for increased fleece weight among the top 1% of reducing fineness. His offspring are also found among the top of the EPD ranking for persistent fineness. His offspring through age 6 remains under 20 micron at 19.5 AFDand SD of 4.2.
He has produced more of the top 25 herdsires in the EPD program for reducing fineness and increasing fleece weight. That is quite an accomplishment for our comparatively little herd. Apocalypse stands in no ones shadow. A multiple Champion with multiple champion offspring and is also one of the top males in the EPD program for AFD and FW.
His offspring have great conformation, full fleece coverage with beautiful heads that always do great in the top white and light classes. In addition to proven EPD's, Apocalypse has had many Get of Sire wins frequently placing ahead of more well know names such as Barnabus and Elite Maximus.
By any measure he is an impressive and unique herdsire. His stats provide confidence that your breeding program will be able to compete among the top animals in the country. His offspring are always in the Ultra Royal Fine grade range as juveniles and yearling and remain in the Royal and sub 20 micron range well into their adult years. A great trait to establish in your herd or your next herdsire.
Congratulations to Jay and Melissa Reeder of Apple Mountain Alpacas, Clarksville, GA, for acquiring co-ownership in this game changing male. Apocalypse will now be available for Fall and Winter breedings in the SE!

Description
We have dealt with hundreds of alpacas in the 20+ years we’ve been raising alpacas and Callisto is among the most memorable. (We mostly refer to him as Carlos.) Carlos is among the highest ranking males in the ARI EPD program for elite, lifetime fineness and increased FW (density). Not only is his fiber spectacular, and his conformation superb, he also exhibits the presence and disposition that makes raising alpacas rewarding on a more personal level. He is simply a beautiful male in every regard.
The qualities of the Allianza Accoyo and Sollocotta cross is coming through beautifully. His pedigree is packed with best of Accoyo, Allianza and Sollocota genetics. He’s out of our champion Accoyo Augusto daughter, Stargazer’s Catena, and sired by Multi-Champion Accoyo America Apocalypse (Hemingway-Nautilus).
Elite pedigree and an accomplished show record, plus top EPD’s. He is ranked at the top (top 20) of all males among the 1% for AFD when combined with the greatest increase of fleece weight (density).
There a few other males that can match his genetics when it comes to the AFD/FW index but that narrows down to less than a handful only come close that will increase curve and staple length
