Congratulations and thank you to Sunny Alpacas for their purchase of Snowmass Andean Midnight! SNOWMASS ANDEAN MIDNIGHT: "FINENESS in BLACK" Elite Ultra-Fine Blacks are hard to find! However, like many of our Snowmass studs, Andean Midnight has retained his Fineness, Brightness, and Handle with age! (Amanda VandenBosch valued him at $12K in 2019). Andean Midnight is a beautiful, compact True Black "Silky Soft" stud with an outstanding Royal Pedigree for fineness and should retain his fineness for years to come. Those who need to add proven genetics of fineness, brightness and handle will appreciate the Royal Blacks from Snowmass! He is one of their best! His fiber is incredibly soft and shiny with a silky look and feel. It has a uniform low amplitude high frequency style of crimp. You have to see it to believe it. His grandsire is none other than Andean Bronze, the sire of Royal Bronze – from Snowmass’ vicuna type alpacas who retain fineness under 20 microns after reaching maturity. CONFORMATION: GOOD BONE WITH EXCELLENT COVERAGE HANDSOME CORRECT WEDGED HEADPIECE DENSE TOPKNOT CORRECT BITE SUPERIOR ROYAL “Vicuna” Lineage: Snowmass Andean Night is a brother to Snowmass Royal Bronze (throws true blacks) and Snowmass Royal Flush (throws silver grays like Silver Signature). Snowmass Andean Bronze (Peruvian Andean Gold x Peruvian Croixen) is an incredible example of longevity in fineness. Fineness will be one of the most important ingredients in breeding elite blacks! ANDEAN MIDNIGHT IS 1/2 BROTHER TO SNOWMASS ROYAL BRONZE (VICUNA TYPE) SIRE: SNOWMASS ANDEAN NIGHT (Superb Brightness & Character Throughout the Fleece) DAM: SNOWMASS FINENESS MATTERS (The name says it all...fineness in Black does matter). THE REST OF THIS AMAZING ROYAL LINEAGE INCLUDES: Snowmass Andean Bronze, 4 Peruvian Andean Gold, 5 Peruvian Tapara, PPeruvian Croixen. 5 Peruvian Red Hot (1/2 brother to Snowmass Midnight Magic), 5 Peruvian Ajoyani, Snowmass Golden Paradise, Snowmass Legacy Gold, Snowmass Peruvian Paradise, and Accoyo Legacy!

EDA PERUVIAN CECELIA Cecelia is what the discerning breeder is looking for in black! Her sire is the well known CPERUVIAN AXTION JAXON, a non-Fading True Black who won GET OF SIRE at the Mid America Show 11-05 competing against two strong whites. This is a rare winning for a black. He is able to pass on color, fineness and tight crimp. And his micron in 2000 was only 18.4! Cecelia's dam, Clarisa, is a full Peruvian female sired by CPeruvian Black Hawk and has Timoteo and Drambuie in her ancestry. She has medium frequency crimp and an excellent density fleece. Cecelia has been bred to Patagoni's Chilkoot, our Bay Black compact herdsire with a long staple length, and bright fine fleece, for a April 2021 cria. Chilkoot’s crias started hitting the ground in 2015 and several have been instrumental on our show string, including Estates Sakima, our true black 5x champion and blue-ribbon winner! Offspring: Cecelia presented us with a handsome MF male, sired by Snowmass Rock Star XX, on 10/13/2010. Snowmass Rock Star XX is our stunning true black herdsire with dynamite fleece! Cecelia gave birth to a beautiful TB female, sired by Snowmass Andean Midnight, on 5/18/2012. Snowmass Andean Midnight is a beautiful, compact, true black “silky soft” male with an outstanding pedigree for fineness. Her 2012 daughter is the dam of our 5x Black Champion, Patagonia Estates Sakima! Cecelia gave us a charming TB male cria, sired by Patagonia's Chief, on 8/9/2015. Patagonia’s Chief, a true black top-sire on our ranch, is not only a champion, but he is a multi-champion producer as well. He adds lots of density and staple length to his progeny, not to mention fineness, handsome typey head, and substance of bone.

Jay-Z is a gorgeous 12X Black Champion, with a bloodline comprised of incredible multi-champions. He is the son of 19X Champion, Sunset Hills Zagato, the 2019 Futurity Dark Huacaya Herdsire of the Year and 2019 Futurity Dark Mixed Get of Sire!! (As well as sire of the 2019 Futurity Judges Choice Huacaya Male, Alpaca Palace Zagato's Zumba!) In addition, Jay-Z's paternal grandsire is 382 Peruvian Zephyrus, a Full Peruvian, ½ Accoyo male with 10 Color Championship wins (including the 2002 AOBA National show, 2003 MAPACA, and 2003 PAOBA shows, as well as winning "Reserve Herdsire of the Year" at the 2005 All-American Futurity!) Jay-Z's dam is CNTRL Man in Black's Beyonce, a multi-champion and blue-ribbon winner herself. She is the daughter of CCNF Man In Black. Top 10% EPDs 2022 and 2023, Plus 12 Championship Banners! Jay-Z won best head at the 2020 Buckeye which was an amazingly large class along with his 12 black Champion banners makes him a very desirable male. He was still taking Color Champion after Color Champion at the very competitive Buckeye at 4 years of age! That is amazing. According to Amanda VanderBosch Jay-Z displays the phenotype and fleece characteristics we are all looking for and it's amazing the fineness he is retaining at 42 months of age when she awarded him Black Color Champion at the 2021 Buckeye! Jay-Z has gorgeous true black and silver-grey offspring. (Out of his 12 registered offspring, 9 are black or grey.) His progeny have received multiple ribbons and championship banners.
