We are delighted to introduce Zaire, a truly exceptional addition to our herd. His Remarkable bone density, uniform color, and fineness, coupled with a superior disposition, set him apart. Born to Snowmass Illuminescence, who was bred to Snowmass Elite Legend when we acquired her, Zaire has quickly established himself as one of our main herdsires. We sent Zaire's fiber to Alpacapalooza in April 2017. Taking 2nd place at 7 months of age, Sharon Loner, the fiber judge, wrote on his fiber score card, "The fiber is very uniform in Color". The rest of his scorecard shows all categories with above-average ratings. Zaire and his sister, Snowmass Lovelight, were entered into the Produce of Dam category at The Great Western Alpaca Show (GWAS) in May 2017. Taking a 2nd place behind one of the largest farms in the US, Amber Autumn Alpacas, was a great accomplishment for our farm. Zaire placed 2nd in Halter there. Snowmass Lovelight, with her [unique characteristics], also made a strong impression at the show. 2025 We are thrilled to announce our RETIREMENT SALE, where we are offering great discounts on packages and entertaining offers. Rest assured, this is a unique opportunity to bring home high-quality alpacas at unbeatable prices. Let us know how we can make something great happen for you!

Description

HOLLYCROFT'S NOCTURNA SPLENDERA, a rare gem among alpacas, was born on February 13, 2013, and has been a resident at Sawdust Alpacas, LLC. Her exceptional genetics, including lineage from Snowmass Matrix, Snowmass Maree Love, Peruvian Hemingway, HDF Prince Phillip, and NWA, LTD Predictor, make her a standout choice for any breeder or enthusiast. But what sets Splendera apart is her stunning conformation with a perfectly proportioned bone structure. Her Dense, bundled fleece only adds to her already striking appearance. This girl is the complete package, boasting excellent genetics, conformation, and fleece quality. So, if you're in the market for a top-of-the-line alpaca with excellent genetics, impeccable conformation, and a beautiful fleece, look no further than Hollycrofts Nocturna Splendera. She's the whole package and more! Splendera was bred to our Sawdust's Zaire (an Elite Legend offspring) for a summer 2025 cria. 8/19/25 Splendera gave birth to a 15.6-pound male cria on July 29, 2025. Despite a challenging start, he is growing rapidly and his dense, crimpy, white fiber is a promising sign. We are excited to show him next spring, as he will still be too young in October for the show season. Our friends in HI suggested the name KOA for him-a name that signifies bravery and strength, qualities we believe he will embody. 2025 We are excited to announce our RETIREMENT SALE, where we are offering significant discounts on packages and entertaining offers. This is a great opportunity to enhance your herd with our high-quality alpacas. Let us know how we can make something great happen for you!
