Heading to the UK
Cinco C's Checkmate
Huacaya, Yearling Male, | Medium Fawn
ARI# 35476450, D.O.B. 11/14/1998,
Sire: Accoyo America Tronador ARI#
31975230 White UNIFORMITY of character, fineness, and staple length! Amazing high frequency 3D crimp that carries well throughout his topknot, neck, blanket, legs, and tail. He has a wonderful long staple length complete with perfect individual small bundles from skin to tip and phenomenal density. His handle is supreme due to the uniformity of micron between primaries and secondaries. This Herdsire has little medulation which also contributes a superior handle. Superb brightness to his fleece! He "wows" me every time I see him and run my hands through his fleece. He has a perfect head, great coverage, and a perfect bite!
Tronador's dam is the full sister to PCA Hemingway-Accoyo Nautilus and dam of Greg Mecklem's current herdsires: Accoyo America Synergy and ACCOYO AMERICA NORTH STAR AC020. Tronador's sire is Accoyo America Endeavor! An Accoyo El Nino son who has been stamping out superior cria. Endeavor is also the full brother to Accoyo America Denali, another fantastic herdsire in the Accoyo America stud row! Take a look at Tronador's Pedigree, there is not one animal in it who has not produced some of the most elite alpacas in the country.
Lynn Eden's who now owns Tronador's dam and siblings said this on 8/23/13: "We just got Tronador's dam, Sequoia's, histogram results for this year -- at age 10 she is carrying a 20 micron fleece with a CV of 18.2% and just 1.5% over 30. Tron's older maternal brother North Star has a 19.8 micron fleece as a seven year old working male, and also maintaining outstanding consistency with just 1.8%>30. North Star is back east now, so Tron is carrying the west coast banner for Sequoia's amazing fleece genetics"
Tronador's cria are hitting the ground and they are spectacular. He has been bred to a wide variety of dams with different phenotypes and all the cria are perfect little cookie cutter "Mini Trons". Oh, and if you are wondering about color, he is produced 4 solid colored crias when bred to 4 colored females so far. He has not produced a white or light from a colored female yet. He is letting the color pass while adding attributes from his elite white genetics. All his crias are showing early signs of elite fleeces. Born with bright, dense, very well stapled and crimpy, and exceptionally fine fiber on perfect little frames.
Dam: Crescent Moon's Stilleta ARI#
31357395 Dark Rose Grey We are thrilled to have added Stilleta to our breeding program. She's got TB and Grey in her pedigree and I shouldn't forget to mention Legacy and Hemingway too. Steve Johnson referred to Stilleta as a "STUD" female. This girl knocks it out of the park each time. Scott Miller told me she's one that he wishes he had never sold. Stilleta delivered a beautiful DF male on November 14. We are so pleased that this is a male. He's pretty impressive and we can't wait to watch him develop. Four and a half months old and Checkmate weighs in at 51 pounds.
We have bred this outstanding female to our own 5C's Chicago.
Welcome to Cinco C's Alpacas Stilleta!
