Genetic testing for Kodiak indicates that his color genotype is: Ee a1a3 which means that he carries one dilution gene and both alleles are black. Having an a3 allele has proven consistently to produce that rich blue-black in our herd. It is being passed through multiple generations and they are non-fading true blacks (not brown on the outside). Kodiak can produce light-colored offspring depending on the color genotype of the dam. Typically, Kodiak produces black when bred to females who have black behind them or are black. Kodiak is producing beautiful grey cria. In 2022, Kodiak's offspring continue to stand at the top of their classes. In 2020, one of Kodiak's female offspring took home several Color Championships, Reserve Championships, and a Judge's Choice Award from Amanda VandenBosch. Kodiak's crias continue taking Color Champion after Color Champion. His yearling TB female took a Reserve Color Champion at Nationals, his juvenile TB female took a Color Champion at Buckeye, and his medium fawn male took a blue at Nationals and a Color Champion at the Wisconsin show. Another Kody female took a Reserve Color Champion at the 2017 Futurity, and another fawn female took home a Color Champion as a juvenile in 2017. These amazing offspring are being noticed around the globe. Several have been exported to other countries. The 2015 show season began with Kodiak cria taking home Color Champion and Reserve Color Champion. To top it off, Kodiak won first for Get of Sire, and Lisa took a blue in Breeder's Best of Three with three Kodiak TB female cria! Add to that, Kodiak showed as an almost six-year-old and won Color Champion as well as a blue! Amanda loved his staple, fineness, uniformity, density, conformation, and true black color! At 5 years of age, Kodiak took two blues and a Reserve Color Champion! Peter loved this solid macho male, his square frame, teddy bear head, amazingly fine, uniform, and dense fleece. Kristin Burhmann confirmed! This is an incredible male! Kodiak comes from a long line of champions who produce champions. His sire is CPeruvian Axion Jaxon. Kodiak's dam is AVC 20th Century Fox, who is sired by 6Peruvian Accoyo Titan. She also carries Accoyo Camilio behind her. Not only is Kodiak genetically packed, but he also has perfect conformation.

We are thrilled to be able to count Devine Inspiration among our most esteemed herd sires. Everyone who touches Divine loves his density! One judge likened it to memory foam. This outstanding male has two EPD traits in the top 5% of EPDs; MC & FW, three in the top 10%; AFD, SD, & SF, one in the top 15%; % F>30, and one in the top 25%; %M for 2024. His impressive fleece carries great brightness. His secondary fibers are very fine lending to his superior uniformity in micron and color. His handle once inside his fiber is Divine…He has great staples with micro bundling. The crimp style is described as high-frequency with a highly aligned crimp which is consistent across the blanket. Feeling his fleece, the crimp stands out as little ridges that you can feel. His 2023/2024 fleece at 5.5 years of age, still displays these traits. Divine Inspiration possesses incredible Snowmass genetics on both sides of his family tree. He is the son of Snowmass Divine Love, the Judge's Choice recipient at the 2013 Futurity, and the Highest-selling huacaya alpaca at the 2017 Futurity Auction. At 7 years of age, he was still boasting an 18.4 micron. Divine Love has a VERY dense fleece that is exceptionally fine just like his sire. Divine Inspiration's maternal grandsire is none other than 8X champion, Snowmass Matrix, winner of Reserve Herdsire of the Year for Light AND Color in 2008, as well as Color Herdsire of the Year and Light Reserve Herdsire of the Year again in 2009! His pedigree is filled with highly sought-after bloodlines such as Snowmass Conopa XXX, Snowmass Infinity, Royal Fawn, Caligula, Jesusa, Hemingway, Accoyo Elite, Legacy, Snowmass Accoyocusani, Snowmaster, Snowmass Maree Love, Lace, and Snowmass Quechua. All these elite genetics lined up to create this suburb herd sire. Divine displays a gorgeous phenotype that demands attention with his macho appearance. He has solid conformation with great bone density. He stands squarely on a strong, straight, large-boned frame and solid leg coverage. Divine Inspiration had not been shown by his previous owners, at five years old, Alpaca Country Estates took this breeding male on the road. This 4th generation champion made showing easy with his calm temperament even in new environments. He was hugged by multiple children at one time with no "withdraw reflex". In a 6 month time period he wowed us by receiving 9 banners and 7 Color Champions in his show season as a five-year-old! We were ecstatic as he earned 3 Judge’s Choice awards. The judges consistently commented on his extreme density, fineness for his age, strong correct frame, great head, and the style his fleece is maintaining. This solid multi-champion male has stunning cria on the ground in almost every color including true black and rose grey, they are mostly female and have his gentle temperament. We are offering limited outside breedings. Devine is co-own with Jen and Marty Koop of Natty West Alpaca
