His kids still win big in the ring...2016 Gold Country Gathering KC son won RCC behind our own RR Dizzy Gillespie in Grey Male and KC daughter won Color Championship, grey female AND KC son won Black Color Championship (RR Lancelot)
KC took his first championship at 8 months of age. Since then, his fleece has maintained its length and fineness and he remains one of the best grey males in the country.
If you have a look at his Watt follicle testing results, the reasons will be obvious. The mix of black and white fibers in his grey is homogeneous in micron. He is the only alpaca, male or female, that carries the best characteristics of the Snowmass Peruvian Casanova and Guns n Roses lines. His production has not disappointed with multiple championships among his offspring.
His follicle density testing by Ian Watt is outstanding at his sampling at 2 years of age:
Density: 57.9mm/mm2
Seconday: Primary fiber ratio: 9.8:1
In-skin primary fiber diameter: 22.3 micron SD 3.2
In-skin secondary fiber micron: 13.7 micron SD 2.5
Comments:
"High density coupled with an excellent set of numbers for the secondary fiber population give this male potential as a significant sire in his color group. a group not known for its uniformity within each fiber population.
This is a significant animal for silver grey alpacas, where the black fibers tend to be very strong in micron and vary across the staple in most alpacas of this colour"

Dam: SNOWMASS GOLD STARZ_deleted_11/19/2022 1:32:05 AM ARI#
841156 Dark Fawn The grand dam of our fawn breeding program retired after her final and aptly named cria RR Starz Magnum Opus. She is now retired and is not for sale. She will live out her days here grazing and basking in the sun.
Here are lines that represent Snowmaster and 4P Legacy. Starz has produced consistanly produced superfine, less tha 17 micron, cria. She is fine, dense, uniform with outstanding definition in her fiber at age 7, and put into a conformationally perfect package. Her sire, Legacy Gold, sold for $500K at the Snowmass 2006 auction and when we came across her as lot #18 in 2007, we knew that we had to have her.
Her 2007 cria, out of Snowmass Royal Rose, i.e. Snowmass RRoyal Stars, is on our herdsire row and has been tested by Ian Watt:
His follicle density of 79.51 and S/P of 13.0/1 place him as the 4th densest alpaca they've tested in the US, 5th in the world.
Of course, that's only a small part of the biopsy data, histogram and expert show ring evaluation against the best that we feel, have placed him in the superstar category. See his listing for more detail on acquiring these superlative genetics.
Her 2008 breeding to our own Guns n Roses gave us a gorgeous superdense, super bright daughter, RR Rose Fiona. This breeding was repeated for 2009 to produce RR Rose La Reina. Like her older siblings, La Reina has it all...the density, length, definition and of course the eye popping brightness and lush hand.
It was only after the arrival and appreciation of how much like her older sister she was that we reluctantly decided to bring RR Rose Fiona, undoubtedly one of our best progeny, to the 2010 Futurity Auction.
This is a home run mom, who we feel will be pivotal in our breeding program. Offspring RR Tutankhamun, RR Starz Magnum Opus, RR Contessa...
