Quality breeds quality, at least most of the time! A quick look at RRoyal Stars ARI certificate will illustrate just how painstakingly the Skinners, at Snowmass Alpacas, constructed their breeding decisions to arrive at this offspring. We purchased mom as the second highest selling female at their 2007 auction.
Roy has quietly ascended to the top of our breeding program and undeniably will be a major contributor. He is out of 2 outstanding Snowmass fawns. We believe that he is a "switch hitter" and expect that he will produce both great whites and more importantly color. Mom is one of our strongest foundation females and has produced champions repeatedly. Dad is one of the best Hemingway sons with an outstanding production record, including Herdsire of the Year, Snowmass XXXtreme (brown).
He is incredibly dense, very fine, and his fleece "glows". It is extremely uniform with a baby soft hand. It breaks into long,silky, draping, opalescent locks belying his incredible fineness/density.
2009 was a breakout season for Roy. He brought raves from every judge who saw him and acquitted himself well against some of the best in the country.
Follicle density testing (Ian Watt)
Follicle density: 79.51 /mm2
S/P: 13.0:1
Dp:Ds ratio 1.42
" This is the 4th densest alpaca that we have tested in the US and the 5th in the world" (as of 6/30/09)
(For comparison, El Nino was higher at 89.5 in follicle density, but had an S/P 12.5 compared to Roy's 13.0/1.)
We have used RRoy across our herd now for three years with remarkable results in increased density and fineness. We are now using his best son RR Arturo (see his biopsy results) to replace his father in our colored program. RRoy's light fawn son, RR Bacchus just won FIRST PLACE and COLOR CHAMPION at his first show under Diana Timmerman. This is an opportunity to have one of the densest alpacas in this country working for you and improving your entire herd. Please feel free to call us to ask any questions or to discuss!
Dam: Summer Solstice of Renaissance Ridge ARI#
30597815 White Summer is a solid production female who has consistantly given us outstanding, quality offspring, which is why we have kept her in our breeding program. She has been re-bred to our multiple champion Snowmass RRoyal Stars, the third densest alpaca follicle biopsy tested through Ian Watt.
The offspring we have gotten out of this pairing have been stunners with incredible density and fineness, not to mention terrific conformation. This female is a solid production female who will give you a cria worthy of the show ring from this pairing. She has already done that with her daughter RR Sistine who took a second Place against some of the top whites in the country. This is an unbelievable opportunity. We are only selling our white herd so that we can focus exclusively on our colored breeding program and we are selling our best producers. RRoyal Stars' breedings sell for $3500...Check out what this match has made time and time again!
Description
Sistine is a beautifully well conformed finely fibered white breeding dam. She is out of Snowmass RRoyal Stars whose density is unmatched. She will and can bring years of quality offspring not to mention years of quality fiber. Sistine is listed on the auction for a very low price, don't think that this reflects her quality because it doesn't. We had a beautiful white male out of Sistine in 2020. She has an ideal phenotype for a breeding dam. She has a nice head, perfect bite and conformation that is correct with good bone mass. The reason for her price and sale is because we simply are not planning on using her any longer. We would certainly consider selling her bred with a reasonable increase in sales price.
What a thrill it has been for Colusa Riverside Alpaca to integrate Snowmass RR Royal Stars into a number of her offspring that we now are breeding. Sistine's expected prodigy determinations are respectable and for that reason her sale price is even better given she is a proven dam.
Here's what Sistine's breeder had to say about her. "Not surprising if you check out dad's follicle skin testing done by Ian Watt. It has shown him to be one of the densest herdsire's in the country, and not only a champion in his own right, but now a producer of champions, even in brown". Sistine has had several offspring for us and she gestates without any problems, is given to birthing easy, and she is a wonderful mother.
