Sire: RR LEGATO GRIGIO - SOLD TO CASCADE ROSE ALPACAS ARI#
31620031 Dark Silver Grey Currently breeding in WA state...
Legato Grigio is the assimilation of the 2 most important lines that we wanted to bring to our grey breeding program. He comes by his elite fleece not unexpectedly.
Dad is RR Gun's A'Blazin' who has now shown by both histograms, and follicle skin testing that he is consistantly producing fineness, density and uniformity and was a 15 time banner winner.
Mom, Snowmass Golden Dreams, has been one of our best producers. We have amassed countless banners from her offspring, among whom is our pre=potent herdsire Snowmass Midnight Sun.
LG has demonstrated his pepotency repeatedly in his production. AS we had hoped, he is able to transmit solid grey as a dominant, in many shades. His progeny, as tested by histograms and biopsies (to date) attest to his prepotency...take a minute to check the stats on his offspring. There is but one to date that is not still in our herd...we have retained them all.
His non grey production has championed in solid colors, fawn and black in particular.
His pattern appears to be a spotting, not tuxedo , pattern and we have used him on solid colors with excellent success.
We have not bred him to tuxedo patterns. He has not produced any blue eyed whites.
The numbers don"t lie:
Histograms:
2012 16.0/ 3.9/ 23/ CF 100%/ length 90mm
2013 18.3/ 4.1/ 23/ CF99%/ length 105mm
2014 17.3/ 3.85/ 22.24/ CF 100 length 90.0
2015: 19.3/ 4.3/ 22.3/ CF 97.3 length 90mm
Biopsy (Alpaca Consulting/ Ian Watt):
Density 64.6/mm2
S/P ratio 11.8:1
In-skin mean primary fiber diameter: 25.9 SD 2.8
In-skin mean secondary fibre diameter: 20.6 SD 2.8
Comments:
Excellent density well supported by an above average S:P ratio and very uniform fiber populations, among the best recorded for this color to date.
There is simply no way that we would be offering Legato Grigio, if we didn't have sons Brubeck, Duke Ellington and Dizzy Gillespie now standing on our stud row...
Dam: RR ROSE TSARINA ARI#
31620154 Medium Fawn The combination of Guns n Roses and Gold Starz was one of our very best in consistent outcomes and Rose Fiona (a judge's choice), Rose La Reina and Rose Tsarina all carried very superior fleece and conformation.
If you are at all familiar with the youngsters that have spotlighted in the show ring out of our herd, look at the ARI certs and see how often this segment of our foundation herd is represented...we are now 4 generations into it.
Tsarina catches everyone's eye at ranch visits...she has been one of our very best producers
Description
Brubeck is Legato Grigio's firstborn. He is regal in his bearing and carries a flawless conformation. LG has demonstrated repeatedly that his cria carry "the right stuff" and they are proving it in the show ring.
RR Tsarina, Brubeck's mom, is at the very top of the pack and had a brilliant show career. Hers is a "no nonsense pedigree" and we repeated the Guns n Roses/ Snowmass Gold Starz breeding combination multiple times with consistent excellence, not just for Tsarina, but several notable champion siblings and at least one judges choice.
His fiber is remarkable for it's density, length, brightness, uniformity and organization.
He will be an outstanding addition to a color breeding program.
We have an abundance of LG males. We would love to be "big" enough to prove them and Brubeck in particular, but have had to make a very difficult choice in offering him for sale.
He has done well in the show ring considering that he has always been shown in brown. That brown was intermingled with black did not have quite enough white to qualify as either grey or indefinite.
That white is quite apparent in his third fleece. We believe that he is a poorly expressed grey for show purposes, but not for breeding purposes. We can't keep them all. And he is amazing! Get a herdsire with outstanding proven genetics for an amazing price!
