Sire: Snowmass RRoyal Stars ARI#
30820456 White SOLD
Quality breeds quality, at least most of the time! A quick look at RRoyal Stars ARI certificate will illustrate just how painstakingly the Skinners, at Snowmass Alpacas, constructed their breeding decisions to arrive at this offspring. We purchased mom as the second highest selling female at their 2007 auction.
Roy has quietly ascended to the top of our breeding program and undeniably will be a major contributor. He is out of 2 outstanding Snowmass fawns. We believe that he is a "switch hitter" and expect that he will produce both great whites and more importantly color. Mom is one of our strongest foundation females and has produced champions repeatedly. Dad is one of the best Hemingway sons with an outstanding production record, including Herdsire of the Year, Snowmass XXXtreme (brown).
He is incredibly dense, very fine, and his fleece "glows". It is extremely uniform with a baby soft hand. It breaks into long,silky, draping, opalescent locks belying his incredible fineness/density.
2009 was a breakout season for Roy. He brought raves from every judge who saw him and acquitted himself well against some of the best in the country.
Follicle density testing (Ian Watt)
Follicle density: 79.51 /mm2
S/P: 13.0:1
Dp:Ds ratio 1.42
" This is the 4th densest alpaca that we have tested in the US and the 5th in the world" (as of 6/30/09)
(For comparison, El Nino was higher at 89.5 in follicle density, but had an S/P 12.5 compared to Roy's 13.0/1.)
We have used RRoy across our herd now for three years with remarkable results in increased density and fineness. We are now using his best son RR Arturo (see his biopsy results) to replace his father in our colored program. RRoy's light fawn son, RR Bacchus just won FIRST PLACE and COLOR CHAMPION at his first show under Diana Timmerman. This is an opportunity to have one of the densest alpacas in this country working for you and improving your entire herd. Please feel free to call us to ask any questions or to discuss!
Dam: Aztec Catarina- see histograms! ARI#
30023017 White This is a quality female out of RFA D'Arcy a Coyo Destini son who has had a notable show career in Canada and produced award winning offspring. She is well proportioned with a gorgeous head and perfect bite. Her gait and balance are correct and legs well angled and positioned. Her first shear revealed excellent fiber stats on a very lustrous, uniform, high amplitude crimp. It has continued to be excellent and she is sustaining fineness and uniformity into maturity. Look at the comfort factor as she ages! See fiber stats.
These are lines that, with the exception of her maternal great grandsire (Peruvian Hemingway) are outstanding, and little represented in the US....and Hemingway sure doesn't hurt anyone's pedigree.
Check out her ARI cert on the link at top of description.
She can be bred to our own Snowmass RRoyal Stars who has competed with some of the best whites and has put together a very commendable show career. He has also been demonstrated to be the 4th densest alpaca in the US (5th worldwide) as biopsied by Ian Watt, with an incredible follicle density of 79.5/mm2 and S/P of 13!
This is a repeat breeding and the daughter that we got out of this combination in 2010 (RR Celestine) and RR Sistine for 2011. Both these female cria have outstanding elite fleeces.
Repeating this breeding for 2012, was a no brainer...and boy did it pay off. RR Bacchus is a very promising light fawn male with "knock your socks off" tightly curled, very dense tui fleece. As of 10/12, she is not yet re-bred. She she not sell, we would prefer to her next birth to be a spring birth and plan to re-breed her to RRoyal Stars.
We are letting her go reluctantly as we are breeding for color and can only accomodate so many breeding females for our limited acreage.

Description
We are very high on this youngster. Of 3 very nice light fawn boys that we had in 2012, he is the only one out of RRoyal Stars. We suspect he will breed long before he reaches full physicall maturity. And look for him to have his dad's powerful 160 pound frame. It's deja vu all over again.
There is no mistake though, that he is carrying his dad's "killer fiber" and almost certainly, the density is there too.
The difference is that RRoyal Stars is a genotypic fawn (he's out of 2 superb fawns, and fawn is recessive), that carries a dilution gene. Evidently so does Catarina, as evidenced by her being white and producing the light fawn offspring.
So here's the deal:
Impressario can also stand "toe to toe" with some of the best "lights", but has a very special place as a color breeder.
Full brother to RR Bacchus...
