Sire: MSA Hemingway's Bogart ARI# 828970
Dam: Canadar's Caramel ARI# 30700628 Light Fawn
Service Sire: Red Granite's Pruet by Bad Boy ARI#
35489665 white Due Date: 11/2/2024 Red Granite's Pruet by Bad Boy we hope will have the same longevity of fineness that his father has, Bad Boy. You can look under the sire tab on this page to see the AFD measurements on Bad Boy over the past 8 years. Pruet's first 3 histograms look like he will continue with this long line of longevity. All three of Pruet's Histogram show an AFD is under 19 microns. That is longevity. Further Pruet will increase density, crip, handle and fineness. Pruet can also improve your offspring in the area of uniformity with a consistent SDAFD at or under 3.8 SD. He is guaranteed to improve SDAFD having an EPD in this category at ranking of 0.7%. Putting Pruet in the 1% for SDAFD. Pruet will reduce medullation fiber given his EPD is 0.4 % in the rankings.
All of Pruet's EPD rankings are more than desirable, insuring definitive offspring improvement in 7 of 8 fiber traits. Not just a little improvement but significant improvement. If you have white animals with a decent histogram picture, breeding to Pruet can give you your next fiber champion. Pruet's actually has improved rankings in staple length and fiber weight over his sire. So, you're getting all of the fineness genetics of his sire but more improvement in these other important fleece traits making Pruet the real deal.
Red Granite describes Pruet like this; "Standing on a strong and great frame alongside carrying a gorgeous bright crimp that has the BLING factor, he is a very exciting male to look at. Most importantly, his fleece remains very "fine" and retains extraordinary brightness, handle, and uniformity across his blanket. We would assume that all of those traits listed above would also be passed down to his offspring, after all that is what this exceptional sire line is known for doing…"
Description
Bianca is on of our last living daughter of Hemingway's Bogart. Bianca has some very valuable genetics and EPDs given her father's lineage.
This production dam is the whole package. She has size, conformation, bright white fine uniform dense fiber. On top of all that, she has the genetic EPD values that indicate she can pass on her fiber quality characteristics in all fiber traits to her offspring. This has been an important foundation female for Colusa Riverside Alpacas. We purchased this dam a number of years ago because she was a daughter of Hemingway's Bogart and knew would have top and bottom recent Hemingway genetics. At age thirteen she still has SDAFD under 4. Bianca's most important genetic trait is for her superior trifecta genetic values in 3 traits, SD, AFD and SL.
Bianca's last histogram has no EPD values above 23% in any rank, 11% in staple length and AFD is 9.45% and to top that off a 2. 0% in SDAFD. These three EPD values rarely come together in the same animal. In 2022, hope to get many more offspring from her.
