Sire: 6P Royal Gold Imp98 ARI#
808058 Medium Fawn Royal Gold passed in 2013 at about 17 yo. He was one of the nations finest imports. It was quite an eye opener in the 1990's when his first cria started testing at 14 and 15 micron. Many also sustained that fineness until well into adult years. He also produced many black and grey offspring even when bred to lighter colors. Antares is a solid black herdsire with a great disposition that we are still using today. He is among the top 10 Black herdsires in the EPD program for improving both fineness and fleece weight.
Consistent, Persistence, Fineness.... A product of the Antacalla/Allianza breeding program, Royal Gold was originally held as the importer's personal herdsire selection in the last Peruvian importation (1998). His reproducibility is undeniable! He has proven to improve density, fineness and crimp.
Royal Gold has sired numerous Champion, blue ribbon offspring that will always get comments from the judge remarking about their fineness and presence. He was capable of producing all colors, including black and grey.
One of his greatest gifts to his offspring was passing on his strong presence and attitude which is noticeable from birth.
Stargazer's Antares (black) and Royal Rumble are taking over his duties with a new defined purpose. We can now offer his genetics in a greater depth of color and fineness. Rumble has been 15 micron for two years in a row.

She is a 3/4 Accoyo female from the Accoyo's Caligula and Felix lines, along with Allianza Hemingway as her only males in her N. American breedings. The Accoyo/Alianza cross has proven to be a great combination that produces tremendous fleece qualities time after time. She exhibits a bold Accoyo crimp and density with Alianza fineness, uniformity and staple length as her strong suits. She has always been an easy breeder. Primera has always conceived with one breeding and usually delivers within a day either side of 332 days.
Primera is part of a herd dispersal consignmentand is available with her 2008 female cria at side sired by Royal Gold.
