We are so pleased with this true black solid young male. He totally rocked it his first year of showing as a juvie. Strat continues to grow and is now a stocky, fully intact yearling male. We are really thrilled with his confirmation and his amazing fleece growth since shearing. He is super dense and fine for a black and consistently shows these characteristics across all parts of his body. We offer half interest in him as we have very high expectations of this boy as he grows into maturity and we'd like to see him promoted out further than our local area. Plus it's ALWAYS more fun to celebrate banners and breedings with a partner! Consider jumping on board and partnering up with us as we experience the opportunities of this boy's future. Keep your eye on this young male as he continues his show career. We can't wait for the spring shows to get here! Update: Congratulations to our newest partners, Susan and Peter Goodwin of Fosters Trail and Alpaca Farm, on the recent purchase of half interest in Stratton. Great things lie ahead for this beautiful boy. Grab an intro breeding today!

SA Viva Legend and her cria - SA Viva Diva are Lot #13 in the 2017 Amber Autumn Auction, Phoenix, Arizona, February 24-25. Win & win again with this 3-in-1 female package. SA Viva Legend is a 2x Champion; the 2015 MAPACA Jubilee and Kentucky Classic. Her sire, Snowmass Silent Legend won 9 banners and is the son of Snowmass Elite Legend, 3x Herdsire of the Year. Viva Legend is the result of crossing the Champion Stachowski Royal Fawn based genetics to the Snowmass Quechua based genetics.

Her black female cria, Viva Diva, is sired by the 7x Champion Black Male, Snowmass Midnight Diamante. She exhibits the same champion traits of her father. Great bone, substance and coverage, a highly advanced fleece with tightly packed staples and true black brightness. Low micron, her true black blanket bundles beautifully. Expect to win banners!

We are thrilled to be partnering with Rancho Inca Alpacas and Two Hearts Alpaca Ranch in this stellar male! Color Genotype: EeAa3 Snow Diamond Perfect Storm is a direct son of Snowmass Defiance, who resides in Australia as an ELITE breeding sire for EP Cambridge Alpaca Stud (HQ). His offspring are not only American National Champions but also Australian National Champions, which is impressive. Defiance himself is a son of Snowmass Elite Legend. Perfect Storm's dam is Snowmass Matrix Perfection, a Snowmass Matrix daughter and full-sister to Snowmass Matrix Belvedere. Perfect Storm was awarded the 2017 AOA National Best Bred & Owned Male banner, and has many other Bred & Owned and Championship wins to his name, respectfully. He acquired the best traits of his parents, including fineness (which is lasting), excellent consistency, brightness, density and a high-frequency crimp that is well-defined and uniform throughout. His EPDs are also exceptional, with 4 traits in the Top 1% in 2021 & 2022. He is gorgeous with stunning presence, a beautiful head style, bone density, and overall confirmation...and he has an easy going disposition which makes him a joy to handle! Genetic prepotency and predicability in ELITE offspring is written in this males pedigree! We have bred him to many diverse females in our herds and have many that are for sale. He is currently bred back to the dams who have produced his most impressive cria.
