We have been offered the chance to co-own this amazing male with Tierra Prometida. MJ will stay in NY in 2023 starting early spring and will be back in texas for spring 2024. Huacaya, Male, Proven | White ARI# 31725064, D.O.B. 10/23/2010 (6 yrs), Full Peruvian Sire: Snowmass Matrix | ARI# 850345 | Beige Dam: Valedar's Parfait | ARI# 839513 | White Ask seller a question Stud Fee: $2,500 Description He is Dense. He is Fine. He has a beautiful, fine, silky fleece with bundles, brightness, long staples, and a well-defined high frequency crimp. His fineness persists as has his dam's and as has his sire, Snowmass Matrix. Every one of his dam’s (Valedar's Parfait) offspring has EPD''s for fineness in the top 1-3%. As the U.S. alpaca industry matures and advances, breeding decisions are being governed more by the objectivity of science and less by the hype of marketing. Fiber measurement, Estimated Progeny Differences and skin biopsy study all give us insights that can only narrow breeding decision making. All of these facts are available in predicting TP Matrix Jubilee's worth as a stud male.

He is marked incorrectly on his 15x scan picture as well as density scan picture as a female rather than a male. His 15X scan shows large fiber clusters mostly uniform in shape and placement. His true density is a freakish 107.73 follicles SQ MM of skin and his S/P ratio is 12.6 to 1. Note his high level 4 of 4 gland presence as the grey areas on the S/P and 250X scans. I would expect brightness of his fibers and this level of gland presence seems to be a strongly passed male genetic trait. 100 secondary fibers average 13.9 microns while 50 primary fibers average 17.4 microns for a spread of only 3.5 microns EPD’s Jubilee’s 2014 EPD’s place him in the top 1% for 4 traits. We got 10 crias from him, all with extremely fine fleece. from white to True black with all colors in between. Having one of his son ( Shalimar Vetiver) breeding at the farm and being limited by Warwick law, on the quantity of alpacas we are offering you this incredible price...buying 1/2 of him (our part as we co-own him with Tierra prometida)will be paid with just 2 breedings!

Apollo is the perfect example of what we are looking for in a high-quality, seedstock herdsire, with his overall presence, perfectly balanced true-to-type frame, and his exceptionally uniform, dense fleece. To top it off he has an extremely gentle, calm temperament, so we think he's just about perfect! His lineage brings in some of the best genetics in the country, from his sire's Jumanji line to Dorian on his dam's side. His sire Koolassal is a Majestic Meadow's Jumanji son who's offspring are consistently excellent! Judges at virtually every show he attended from Fall 2020 through the end of Spring 2022 were wowed by his presence, stature and fleece characteristics, awarding him a total of 25 blue ribbons, 16 Color Championships, 4 Judges Choice awards, and 7 Reserve Championships including the AOA National Light Male Invited Champions RC, the AOA National Light Male RC and the AOA National Light Male Fleece RC. We are so proud to report that he has been awarded the National 2nd place High Point Huacaya Male for the Fall 2021-Spring 2022 AOA show season!
