Nuance is an "incredible Incan Black Male from a Royal Line of Elite Fibered Alpacas in Color" from the Snowmass breeding program. Incan Magic, one of Nuance's Grandsires, has a strong history of holding fineness even with age. Incan Magic's dam remains an amazing 16 microns at 9 years of age. Nuance’s Dam, Incan Surprise, has exhibited the same fiber attributes. His sire, Snowmass Nova, has been a multiple champion and is an excellent producer. Nova sold at the Snowmass “The Making of Champions” auction in Feb. '06 for $335,000. Nuance’s pedigree of predicable fiber characteristics and award winning genetics are what we have been striving for in our breeding program. We have bred him to a number of our award-winning females and excitedly look forward to his offspring each year. Nova's Nuance is co-owned with ALPACAS of Tualatin Valley. Visit our website for the most up-to-date information and to view his cria.

What can I say, El Nino’s Annabelle is just one of those unique alpacas. She is a Blue Eyed White, fathered by the famous PCA Accoyo El Nino, and her Dam is Choco Channel, a rose grey Camilio daughter that we recently sold to Crescent Moon. This makes her a 3/4 Accoyo gal, with definite Grey genetics. Annabelle has a very dense fleece just as you would expect from an El Nino offspring and had a 2005 histogram of: 21.8 AFD, 4.5 SD, 20.6 CV, 4.5 >30u.
