Sire: MFI Peruvian Railway ARI#
31910521 Medium Rose Grey We couldn't stop feeling those locks. MFI Peruvian Railway has a tight lock and dense coverage. He is a grey suri that would take your breeding program to the next level. When sheared his fiber weight was almost 6 pounds.
MFI Peruvian Railway is the sire to Orient Express by Railway and she inherited her density from Railway. Orient Express by Railway has beautiful luster that showed well.
Dam: Yuma's Yulissa - Deceased ARI#
31651813 Light Fawn Yulissa passed away 2016 - Her personality is still remembered on our farm.
Yulissa was born Oct. 27th, 2009 and has been a bundle of joy ever since! Thanks to her dam's great mothering abilities and ample milk, she is a confident and solid little girl - not only keeping up with the older cria, but usually leading them as they run wild. Yulissa's light fawn fiber has tiny locks, with astounding luster and superb coverage. She has a lovely, pheno-typical suri head and is sure to be a head turner in the ring this coming season.
In the future, we are sure she will pass on the darker colors that she has in her genetics, having multiple True Blacks (Izela and Renzo) on her Dam’s side and our own, Medium Fawn, Yuma of Long Hollow (an Angel Son) as her Sire. Yulissa takes after her dam and is a great mother also.

Service Sire: GLR MOAB ARI#
32533910 True Black Due Date: 9/21/2022 GLR Moab is the son of Great Lakes Ranch's true black Rockstar granddaughter, Midnight Rock. Brad & Jandy Sprouse specifically bought Midnight Rock, thinking and hoping that when bred to their Shavano pedigreed males that she would make a cria like Moab. His lock, density and luster were impressive to Brad and Jandy even as a little guy. Both parents, Midnight Rock and GLR Rastamon are about as true black as they come with no tipping at all and that great blue black color.
With a pedigree of deep black genetics and the excellent fiber characteristics that come from both parents, His first show was the 2014 AOA Nationals where he was first in his class of juveniles and Reserve Black Male Color Champion at only ninth months old and went on to do it again at the largest Suri show of 2014 at the MAPACA Jubilee. He continued to do well in 2015 with a 3rd place at the 2015 AOA Nationals and First and Reserve Black Male Color Champion at the 2015 AAA Futurity. Moab went on to win the Black Male Color Championship at the 2015 MAPACA Jubilee, the biggest Suri show of the year. We partnered with Over Home Alpacas to purchase GLR Moab.
Having processed His Dam - Midnight Rock's fleece and having already purchased her 2014 cria GLR Phoebe, who was awarded a championship in her first show and first place at MAPACA 2015 we had a very good feeling about Moab.
Moab has many successful cria's on the ground. He is true to his genetics and is passing his fiber genetics and luster.

One of GLR Moab's 2022 cria is LHSA CALLIOPE. Calliope possesses TRUE BLACK genetics from both her Sire and Dam as well as their Sires & Dams, which includes: Rastamon, Cousy’s Midnight Rock, Cinders, GLR Ali and Shavano.
In addition to show results, we rely heavily on proven genetics and fleece data as the determining factors in our breeding program. Strict adherence to this standard and years of research has come to fruition with our Herdsire GLR Moab.
