This CHAMPION Junior Herdsire has taken Blue Ribbons at the Palmetto Alpaca Classic in both Halter and Best of Three as well as a reserve Championship at the Buckeye Alpaca Show. His elite fiber is particularly fine with an AFD of only 17.3 microns. His bundling fiber flaunts high frequency, low amplitude crimp from his ears to his toes and down his belly. His density adds to the even more worth to his tremendous appeal especially when coupled with is typey, helmet head. Olympic displays balanced form, strong and muscular conformation with heavy bone. These traits are no surprise as they run in the family.

Olympic is already primed to follow in these illustrious footsteps.

Snowmass Occult is a three-time Color Champion herdsire that brings top 15% EPDs in fineness and curvature to our herd. He has exceptional phenotype and pedigree. Pedigree He is the offspring of Snowmass Enchanted and Snowmass Loves Grace. His pedigree also includes top Snowmass producers that include Snowmass Matrix, Snowmass Quechua, Snowmass Accoyocusani, Snowmass Nova, and Snowmass Conopa XXX. Phenotype Occult brings lots of goodness to our breeding program. He has strong conformation with a full face of fiber that is complemented by his small ears and nose. His fiber is dense and it offers top 15% EPD ratings for micron count and curvature. We’ve seen his phenotype pass to his offspring and dominate over the dam’s appearance. Occult’s crias have his strong conformation, his “showy” head, and he has leveled up the crimp structure for each dam he was bred to. Color Genotype: Ee a3a1 Occult’s ASIP alleles show he has black alleles in both locations. His MC1R alleles show he has one dilution. This genotype combination tells us he can produce offspring in the full range of colors. We can see from his breeding records that Occult will produce lots of dark colored crias, and in particular classic grey offspring, when bred with the correct color genotype. Personality Occult is a nice blend of sweet and sassy. He’ll listen to commands and he is quick to snack from your hand. While breeding he patiently waits his turn, then once released he is an eager breeder who quickly courts the dam into mating.
