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 Incan Velvet ARI#
30424524 Medium Silver Grey Velvet brings to us the genetics of Snowmass Incan Magic to add to our grey breeding program. She is one of two foundation females that we have with those lines. She is beautifully proportioned and a terrific mother.
She is a no nonsense mature hembra who is being offered bred to RR Touchstone who has distinguished himself with multiple banners including 2015 Brown Color and 2016 Reserve Championship at The National Fleece Show.
Her price is Touchstone's breeding fee...we are moving towards solid grey and we have to make tough choices.
Description
Kit Carson blessed us with a number of excellent black sons with Christopher Wren being no exception.
His is an excellent pedigree. He is conformationally sound and has a superior, superfine fleece notable for it's handle and uniformity.
Since he is out of 2 greys, we expect him to be a valuable contributor to both black and grey breeding programs.
There is no evidence that either we, or the judges can find lack of color uniformity in his blanket.
