We now hand Canaletto's lead rope over to Phil Taylor of Hummin Haven Alpacas. We trust he will continue to produce beautiful offspring. Talk to Phil to book your breeding. He now has three babies on the ground and all three are fantastic! His offspring all have fleece that is bright, vibrant and loaded with crimp. All three cria have neck wrinkles, indicating extreme density. Now all three have been in the show ring. Check it out! RESULTS: Son, ShepCo Cougar, 2nd Place, Best of the U.S. Daughter, ShepCo Sienna, 1st Place, Buckeye Alpaca Show Son, ShepCo Sampson, 1st Place, Champion's Alpaca Show WE ARE PROUD TO INTRODUCE, SNOWMASS ROYAL CANALETTO! Truly, this male is a dream come true for us. We worked long and hard to find this guy. For all of those who took time to answer our questions and send us info and fiber samples for your males, we thank you. When the dust settled, it was Canaletto that we chose to stand as our elite stud. This full Peruvian, medium fawn macho has impressed the judges, winning 1st place ribbons in both halter and fleece competitions. He is a product of the highly respected Snowmass breeding program. He is grandson of the "Herdsire of the Year," Snowmass Peruvian Casanova. He displays high frequency crimp and his fleece is one of the softest we've ever felt. He is laid back, easy to handle, and gets along well with other males. Julie Skinner of Snowmass Alpacas stated of this male, "We are truly impressed with him!" Obviously we like him, too; he is father to 8 of the 14 cria we are expecting.

SOLD Siobhan now takes her great mothering skills to a new farm to carry on the FULL BOLIVIA tradition. Thank you, Meg! Well, in the mood to stir it up a bit Siobhan gave us a dark drown, full Bolivian MALE. He is nice looking and growing quickly. June 2011- Well she's kept her record perfect! Siobhan is 5 for 5 in producing female cria. The delivery was quick and unassisted. The children and I sat on the deck and watch her bring her newest daughter into the world. 6/9/10 It is with great pleasure that we announce the birth of Siobhan and Night Vespers' daughter. This beautiful little full Bolivian was born unassisted and is true black-just what we were hoping for. Thank you God! That makes Siobhan 4 for 4 in the girl department :), We are pleased as punch to have this lovely lady as part of our herd. This non fading jet black female is full Bolivian. Her fleece is long, lustrous and loaded with crimp. Not surprising considering her heritage. Her father is the renowned, Bolivian Black Thunder and her grandfather on mom's side is BLACK CLOUD OF BOLIVIA. Black Cloud provides hard to find genetics as Nordstrom Ranch did not allow outside breedings to this wonderful true black import. She is a proven mom with lots of love and loads of milk for her cria. Her 2009 daughter weighed 70 lbs at just under 3 months! She is an easy keeper with unassisted births. A dream come true!
