Bisturi is a stunning gray male with a gorgeous evenly colored fleece. He has a fabulous pedigree that yields itself to producing not only gray, but quality fleece in general. An added benefit to Bisturi is that he is unrelated to any of the currently popular gray genetics out there. Reserve your breeding today to this fabulous gray male!

Thank You and Congratulations to Kitt Hollister of Howling Hill Farm of New Hampshire on the purchase of this lovely female and her American Iron daughter, American Maid. May she produce many more like Corvus. If a high end silver grey female is in your breeding future, you really need to look at this Aussie Rockford daughter. It is important in choosing foundation breeding stock to look at the consistency of the bloodlines. Rockford is indisputably one of the most influential grey studs in the nation and Arista's dam, Grace has proven to add her own powerful genetics to her offspring. Consistent Family History: Grace, our herd Matriarch, has out produced every other foundation girl in our 10 year history. Grace has produced seven offspring for us here at Stonyridge, five of them females that are all cornerstones of their respective breeding programs. The Grace X Rockford pairing is magic, and Arista is the fourth offspring from this match. Full sister silver grey Steele Magnolia earned multiple blues and Reserve + Color Champion in her show days & is now a star in our breeding program. Full sister Capella was a blue ribbon winner prior to her sale as a yearling. Full brother silver grey Perseus, won multiple blues for his exceedingly fine fleece. Grace's other two daughters are also successful show girls. Bellatrix, Arista's older sister ended her '09 show season with 1st and Color Champion at Alpaca Affaire. Bellatrix started her '10 season with a bang earning 2nd and Reserve Color Champ at PNAA. Head: Short muzzle, wedge shaped head with dense topknot & correct bite. Conformation: Arista is perfectly balanced, typey & square with excellent size of bone, and Grace's classic head. Fleece: Her fleece is a very deep charcoal grey, with the slick hand and exceptional brightness Grace imparts to her kids. Low amplitude crimp style that is developing nicely. The Grace family fleeces are the first to sell to hand spinners. Temperament: Easy to work with and halter trained. Linda is a Camelidynamics Practitioner, and all Stonyridge alpacas are handled using Marty McGee's Camelidynamics methods. Arista produced a lovely silver grey male, Corvus, from her breeding to Aston Martin. Her 2013 silver grey cria sired by Bisturi is a knockout we've named Milestone. Her 2014 female cria is a jet black stylish girl sired by Neversummer's American Iron. Given the awesome result of this breeding, Arista is currently breeding back to Iron for a 2015 Cria. As soon as she is safely confirmed pregnant she will be ready to travel to her new home, along with her gorgeous daughter to add to your 2015 show string.
