Sire: Heatherbrook's Sparks ARI#
30856608 Medium Rose Grey We discovered Sparks while evaluating offspring of another herdsire we were interested in. Sparks is the son of the well known grey herdsire, Danko. Danko is a Chilean import who has sired numerous champion offspring. Sparks numerous blue ribbons and two banners, have no doubt been earned by his beautiful fleece and solid conformation. His fine fleece is dense, possesses wonderful architecture and incredible staple length. We particularly like the well defined crimp and lock structure in this rose grey fleece.
Sparks first cria (5C's Cascade of Sparks) is silver grey from a black dam. This beautiful silver grey male has solid conformation and a fine dense fleece. Cascade'cs first cria is a 6X banner winner. Contesto is another Sparks son who has won multiple blues and two Res Champ Banners for his fleece. It seems that Sparks is producing greys (both silver and rose), blacks, browns and fawns. The crias all have very solid conformation with heavy bone structure and nice wide chests, fine fleeces with incredible staple length and fineness and beautiful phenotype.
Here's our latest offer. We have reduced our price on Sparks. We have several offspring we are retaining AND we need to make some space.......so we are offering Sparks for sale so some other lucky breeder can benefit from these great genetics. He's a wonderful producer.
Look at his fiber report at 9 years old. It's impressive.
Sparks is currently at Cinco C's Alpacas..
Dam: MFI Shanakee ARI#
835415 True Black When we made a trip to purchase a brown, bred female, we came home with a black, maiden named Shanakee. We fell in love with this beautiful Silvio daughter at barely 8 months of age and we certainly have not been sorry. Shanakee's dense fleece is incredibly soft and crimpy. She has passed along her solid bone and beautiful coverage to every one of her crias. A Silvio daughter who produces both black and grey. Her first cria was a grey Reserve Champion and multi-blue ribbon female. Shanakee produced numerous, oustanding, herdsire quality black males. Capital Punishment, C-Cret Weapon, Catalist and Chico are a few. Cascade is Shanakee's and he's silver grey.
We were so pleased with Cascade and his first cria that we decided to breed Shanakee to Sparks again. Well the cria has arrived and YIPPEE it's a girl. Since Shanakee has only produced black and grey before this, I was quite surprised when she delivered a brown cria!!!! But hey, she finally had another girl and a nice one too!!! This little female has been named 5C's Carumba. Except for the brown, she's just what we expected. She's got a very solid frame, beautiful head and nice little twizzles in her soft soft, fleece.
Shanakee has been bred to our multi-champion Contesto. This will be Contesto's first cria and we expect it to be nothing short of spectacular!!!!!!
Description
This beautiful male is just what we ordered from Sparks and Shanakee. The Silvio and Danko lines are some of the most consistent grey producers in the country. Cascade does not disappoint. He carries a beautiful, fine, consistent fleece on a solid frame. The staple length of this fleece is impressive as is the spot free blanket.
Cascades very first cria is our black 6X banner winning black male, 5C's Contender. The fantastic success of Contender has earned Cascade the right to prove himself again and again.
We do own both his parents and have repeated the breeding that created him. Now that Contender's breeding career is in high gear, we have decided to offer Cascade for sale with retained breedings. We would consider co-ownership
