Everyone loves Bertie Lou! Such a lovely young female and one that we knew was special the minute she hit the ground. Bertie carries the fleece qualities so prevalent in .38 Special's offspring. Her fleece is extremely fine and uniform across her entire blanket. Her 9-month fiber stats were MFD 16.9, SD 3.3, CV 19.4, 0.3%>30. Clearly Bertie's 2nd fleece is maintaining its quality as this is what brought her to the top of the field when she received the Color Champion at her first show as a yearling in October against extremely stiff competition. Bertie Lou was bred to Estates Satin Sebastian for a July 2025 cria. Offspring: On 7/17/14, Bertie Lou gave birth to a True Black male, sired by Snowmass Satin Reserve. On 7/17/15, Bertie Lou had a good-looking Bay Black male, sired by NS Magic Flight. On 8/7/16, Bertie Lou gave birth to a beautiful True Black female, sired by Patagonia's Baccus. Her daughter, Estates Magnificent Obsession has produced several champions for us, including 5x Champion, Estates Zorro the Magnificent. On 9/12/17, Bertie Lou presented us with a handsome dark brown male, sired by our wonderful 8x Champion, Estates Satin Cloud. On 9/25/19, Bertie Lou gave us a stunning True Black male sired by 6x Color Champion, Patagonia Estates Sakima. ESTATES SAKIMA'S BRAXTON is an 12X Champion! We are so excited to announce that Braxton has been awarded the Color Championship in the Black Male Invited Champions at the 2021 National Alpaca Show in Grand Island Nebraska! On 7/3/21, Bertie Lou presented us with a beautiful true black female also sired by our champion producer, Patagonia Estates Sakima. On 8/30/22, Bertie Lou gave us a handsome true black male sired by our newest champion service sire, Estates Chief Black Hawk (out of Patagonia’s Chief).

WOW! We are delighted to add Irish Meadows’ Shadow to our herdsire lineup. He is everything we wanted to cross over our black lines, especially Sakima daughters. Quite frankly, we can cross him over every color! We have been looking for a black male that checks all the boxes especially in uniformity, staple length, and density on the fleece side. On the conformation side we needed a male that was without fault with great bone, coverage, and complimentary to our program. Genetically we wanted prepotent lines that we could depend on to produce top-tier quality offspring. Shadow had all that and more! His fleece style is reminiscent of Sakima with the tiny bundling, excellent uniformity, a dreamy soft handle, consistent crimp style, and an extended blanket area. Also, it is very bright, and excellent in comparing his primary to secondary fibers in micron, frequency, and color. We found all that in a 36-time banner winner with a first-rate pedigree. With elite champion lines he is also a sixth generation Champion. In 2023, he was awarded seventh place for top halter male in the show points calculation. Shadow is a son of three time Judge’s Choice winner, 26 time Champion, and multiple Champion and Judges Choice producer Irish Meadows’ Reputation. Reputation sired the 2023 high point female Irish Meadows’ Fancy Like. He is also sire to our eleven time champion, Irish Meadows’ Patriot. Reputation is an extraordinary son of the late Avalon’s Jacob Black, an amazing male, and an 18-time champion in his own right. Shadow is the product of crossing these lines with an Elite Max daughter. Talk about a match made in heaven! Unfortunately, his dam, Irish Meadows’ Emma passed in 2024. Her sire, The Elite Max, is an eight time Judges Choice winner and 27-time Champion. Shadow’s pedigree is chock-full of elite sires and dams. Additional highlights include Snowmass Elite Legend, Snowmass Royal Legends, Accoyo Elite, Peruvian Hemingway, SA Royal Avenger, and Royal Fawn. Shadow is proven and we will be using him immediately. Watch for his highly anticipated cria. He will be available for extremely limited breedings, and they will go fast. Contact us today if you are interested in adding Shadow’s outstanding quality and superior genetics to your herd!
