Sire: Patagonia's Celio ARI#
31691253 Light Brown Celio is like a fine wine that gets better with age. He is an 8X CC/RC Champion as a yearling through to almost 3 years of age. We purchased 1/2 interest in Celio from Aleutian Eagle Alpacas, as we couldn't believe the quality of his fleece at nearly 3 when he won his 2013 AOBA Nationals Brown Color Championship. This beautiful multi-award winning Lennox son is the complete package, with a presence that will catch your eye, and fleece that will stun you with its fineness, density and character.
Celio's lineage embodies many of the great herdsires Alpaca's de la Patagonia have produced: Danko, Lennox, Shackleton, El Trauco, and El Padre. No surprise he has it all!
Dam: Skyline's Day Dreamer ARI#
32821796 Light Silver Grey Skyline’s Day Dreamer is another one of our outstanding greys that we will be keeping in our herd as we sold her mother.
Day Dreamer is everything we could have wanted when we bred her mom, BOA Deacon’s Gentiana “Gentian” to our premiere herdsire Snowmass Enlightened. Day Dreamer is a very uniform Silver Grey with outstanding Fineness, Brightness, and a High Frequency crimp. Her 2016 histogram taken at 11.5 months was: 16.2 AFD, 3.1 SD, 19.4 CV, & 0.4 %>30u. Fabulous! Day Dreamer did well in the show ring in 2016 even when she had to compete against other Skyline Greys. She achieved a 2nd at CABA Classic and a 4th at the ABI show as a yearling.
We loved Day Dreamer so much that we repeated the breeding and her Dam, Gentian, is due with her Enlightened cria on 5/17/2017. Gentian is one of those alpacas that has retained fineness. Her 6.5-year fleece still had an AFD of 22.4! She consistently has produced greys for us that are exceptionally fine. Gentian Sold and produced a beautiful daughter for the new owners!
Description
****Fabulous News! Estella is now available in our wonderful package! Also, she just had her cria and we will keep her, but we have now rebred her to Skyline's Copperfield, a wonderful male as he earned 3 reserve color champions!
Skyline's Estella is still available and she got a 3rd place at the Futurity show in the 2 year old Rose Grey class. The winner of that group went on to get color champion. Just an FYI, I had Estella listed for sale for much less and Wade Gease who helps me evaluate my herd said I was offering her too low! That was before she was pregnant and now she is, so the discounted price available in the package will be wonderful for you!
Skyline’s Estella is a gorgeous Modern Dark Rose Grey Female that has not only wonderful genetics but a fabulous fleece as well! Her amazing fleece was confirmed by her 2019 histogram: 18.3 AFD, 3.1 SD, 16.7 CV & 0.4 % >30u. We love her uniformity! We also love her genetics. Estella’s Dam, Skyline’s Day Dreamer, is a LSG Snowmass Enlightened daughter; Estella’s Granddam is a wonderful MSG Mile High Deacon Grey daughter. Estella’s Sire, Patagonia’s Celio, is our LB award winning Male with 5 Color Championships and 3 Reserve Color Championships! Celio brings Patagonia’s Lennox and Patagonia’s Amarilla into her pedigree. We did show her as a Juvenile at the 2019 AOA Nationals in Denver, and she took a 4th in a very competitive Juv. Rose Grey class even though she is a Modern Dark Rose Grey!
Estella did have a live birth on 9/28/22 a black female! We will be keeping her but will rebreed Estella in 2 weeks.
Don’t miss this great opportunity to purchase a wonderful Alpaca with great Grey genetics!
