And a little history on Harley... Years ago I looked out into a large herd of alpacas when I was visiting a ranch and one alpaca in particular caught my eye. Before I even knew what a harlequin was, the stunning Bella Gris started my journey to learn about harlequins and what makes them so very special. In 2016, I had an opportunity to add this beautiful harlequin daughter of Bella Gris to my herd. Their looks are very different, one a very light silver grey platinum harlequin and the other a darker version-- both simply exquisite! While Harley's color is a variation of her dam's, she carries the same beautiful phenotype of her dam and sire-- LV Vantaggio Di Bisturi--with fleece to die for. And for those Bisturi and Assie Rockford lovers-- Harley is the granddaughter of both! UPDATE: 2021 Fiber Stat results just in. Please note Harley's test scores... her stats practically unchanged since 2014!

Description

* Rare Gem First Kiss * Marbled Beauty with a Colorful Future Bred to Appaloosa Herdsire WillowWind Marquis Rare Gem First Kiss is a one-of-a-kind young female with bold marbling throughout her fleece and genetics that promise both beauty and fiber excellence. Her striking coloration includes deep marbling across her belly and up her flanks, with a blanket that appears solid dark brown—but upon shearing reveals subtle marbling and scattered black spots. First Kiss is confirmed pregnant with her first cria, due November 2025, from the handsome Appaloosa herdsire Willow Wind Marquee (a.k.a. “Mr. Spotalicious”) owned by Mule Train Alpacas. This pairing is full of promise for those looking to produce next-level spotted or marbled offspring. ** Pedigree Highlights ** Her dam, LV Harlequin by Vantaggio, is a second-generation harlequin and the daughter of LV Bella Gris, a platinum harlequin who showed as grey and earned a Grey Color Championship. Harley carries unique marbling rather than the traditional Appaloosa expression. First Kiss is also the first-ever offspring of FDA Rock n Roll, a male selected for his elite fleece, gorgeous phenotype, and his own marbled patterning that perfectly complemented Harley. The result is First Kiss—uniquely patterned, fine-fleeced, and full of potential. ** Why She’s Special ** This girl is a genetic and visual standout. Whether you’re aiming to enhance a spotted or harlequin breeding program—or simply looking to add a female with lasting fiber quality and eye-catching pattern—First Kiss brings something truly out of the ordinary. She’s just getting started… and we can’t wait to see what kind of magic she and Mr. Spotalicious create this fall.
