Description

If you are looking to breed to a phenomenal herdsire than D-Son is your guy! D-Son has the presence that turns heads and grabs the attention of everyone in and out of the show ring. He has a solid frame that is straight, correct and PROUD! His dense topknot and typey head are just the beginning of this complete package. His fiber sparkles in the sunlight. It opens easily to display his solid character and individual staples of over 5 inches. D-Son has an INCREDIBLE pedigree. His sire is Leprecan, a 12x winning champion who's grandsire is Shackleton! Shackleton, a black male brought from Chile, was for many years one of the finest fleeced males found in Patagonia. This is remarkable if we consider that 10 years ago, the difference in fineness between black and white alpacas was much more apparent than it is today. At three years of age Shackleton's histogram was 18.9m/3.8sd/20.1cv/1.2%>30. Shackleton is also the sire of Patagonia Neruda! Now we go to D-Son's dam's side and who do we find? To begin with D-Sons grandsires are Chaparral & PB White Lightning! Chaparral's bloodlines speak for themselves. With over 50 offspring, Chaparral is truly one of the best herdsires in the country and White Lightning is owned by Greg Mecklem, Pacific Crest Alpacas. He sired 26 offspring, 14 female and 12 male, before he stopped breeding. White Lightning crias are rare and there will not be any more! I could continue listing the animals behind D-Son. It reads like a Who's Who list of some of the greatest herdsires in this country! We are confident that D-Son will be an impact male in the near future and look forward to seeing his progeny hit the show ring in the near future. Wouldn't you like to go on the ride with us?
