Sire: CCNF Bataclan ARI#
35370475 White If breeders do their job right, eventually there is always a next-generation advancement that will bring something new to the table. CCNF Bataclan represents the amalgam of some of the most exciting and prepotent lines that we have ever worked with here, going back over 18 years in some cases.
Bataclan's sire, 2017 Futurity Herdsire of the Year CCNF Elixir, really needs very little introduction at this point. Though Elixir has given us several excellent sons, when Bataclan first started working, he represented Elixir's first white son that had the mojo to regularly steal females off of his sire's breeding list. Consider what Elixir has meant to us over the past few years and then let the statement above sink in. Yes, Bataclan is that special.
Maternally, Bataclan combines the genetics of Snowmass Sub-Zero (a Champion 6P Monarch son) and our Futurity Champion, MFI Peruvian Precocious, who is of course himself a son of the mighty Jeremiah. Just on paper alone, the pedigree is fairly drool-inducing but the specimen in person also happens to walk the walk as well. With a more compact size and build, that most closely resembles that of his Champion dam, CCNF Daliance (Snowmass Sub-Zero x CCNF Flirtatious), and a fleece that is both dense, bright, and very well organized, Bataclan is absolutely poised to be the next big thing here at his birth farm.
Update - Spring of 2022: After 2+ pandemic-laden years where his offspring primarily competed only via the AOA National Fleece Show (albeit winning several banners, including the Female Judges' Choice in 2020 for his daughter, CCNF Electra) the Bataclan kids stormed into their first-ever Futurity winning the Light Get of Sire Class, 6 individual blue ribbons, 1 Reserve Championship (White Huacaya Male), 2 Championships (Light Huacaya Male & White Huacaya Female), and the Judges' Choice Female Huacaya! All of which led Bataclan to ultimately lay claim to the prestigious 2022 Light Herdsire of the Year, an honor his sire, Elixir, had previously claimed on three prior occasions.
Dam: CCNF Elizabeth ARI#
32817508 white The daughter of Futurity Champions CCNF Eliza (PPeruvian Elizabeth x CCNF Archangel) and Snowmass Elite Legend, she is the dam herself of among others, CCNF Snow King, 2022 AOA National Fleece Show Judges' Choice Huacaya Male.
Description
We had a feeling that this little girl was going to grow into something special from the moment she hit the ground. Her dam, CCNF Elizabeth, is one of the prized possessions of our breeding program being both from the powerful maternal line that originated with her Peruvian import granddam, whose name she bears, as well as a daughter of the great Snowmass Elite Legend himself. It is not by chance that CCNF Snow King, Lilibet’s older maternal brother, was just named the Judges’ Choice Huacaya Male at the 2022 AOA National Fleece Show: that family gets the job done.
Of course Lilibet’s sire is none other than CCNF Bataclan, the newly crowned 2022 Futurity Light Herdsire of the Year, whose offspring have been kicking butt and taking names since they first started showing up in fleece shows initially in 2020 (due to the Covid pandemic we did not attend any halter shows between November 2019 and November 2021) and finally in person in late 2021. Suffice it to say, the track record, the eye tests, and the data points that back them up are all there.
Lilibet is of course sold with a full reproductive guarantee and future breeding to any CCNF Herdsire. But to whom, you might ask should she be matched? Given the recent evidence of both her JC winning maternal brother mentioned above (Snow King) but also her paternal brother, CCNF Solaris (whose dam, Marisol, is likewise a Mint Mo Money daughter) who was the Reserve Champion White Male at the ’22 Futurity as a juvenile, it seems to us that breeding Lilibet with Futurity Champion & JC winning male, MFI’s & KVR’s Mint Mo Money, is just about as obvious a first choice as there could possibly be.
