Congratulations & thank you to Crescent Moon, Red Granite Ranch & Sopris Alpaca Farm for their purchase of Estates Passionate Fever! MEET 14x CHAMPION and 3x JUDGE’S CHOICE WINNER-ESTATES PASSIONATE FEVER! Fever is the son of Snowmass Pure Passion, our outstanding champion producing stud with 7 GET-OF-SIRE Blue Ribbons! Passion represents 30 years of passion in breeding for the perfect-colored fleece on the most beautiful-bodied alpaca. Snowmass Alpacas said, “Snowmass Pure Passion is the most magnificent Light Fawn Matrix son Snowmass Alpacas has ever produced.” Fever's maternal grandsire is Patagonia’s El Galan, our magnificent 4x champion & multiple blue-ribbon winning herdsire out of Patagonia’s Cayo. His maternal great grandsire R&R Oliver Twist has consistently produced outstanding offspring in Canada and the U.S., that exhibit fine, uniform micron in their fleeces, along with crimp & correct, solid conformation. In 2019, Passionate Fever was evaluated as an A+ by senior AOA Judge Amanda VandenBosch. "He has excellent substance of bone, balance to frame, fiber coverage, good organization within staple, maintains consistency across fleece, moves to the extremities to neck, good density relative to fineness." Jill Marcellus said, "He’s a very refined looking male, He’s moderately sized, right in the middle there, & that can be very useful in a breeding program. He’s got good balance & proportion, excellent substance of bone, & a very typey male with a good strong phenotype. I really like his head style as well. His fleece is very fine & exceptionally uniform in all the fleece traits. I pulled samples from all over the place on him & really there is virtually no difference from mid-side to right into the front shoulder area to over to the hip. That also carried through with the staple type and also the expression of character through the fleece. It’s very uniform right across his body and underneath his belly." Passionate Fever was a superstar in the show ring and his offspring are too! We are thrilled to announce that Fever's 2022 daughter (Estates Fever's Fancy Flower) brought home the coveted Judge's Choice award as well as TWO Color Championship banners and Blue Ribbons (Both Halter and Walking Fleece) from the 2023 Houston halter show! We are over the moon!

ESTATES SINCERELY MAJESTIC Sincerely Majestic's sire is 6x champion, Snowmass Majesty in Moonlight, who has given us multiple champions and blue-ribbon winners. Majesty was the Spinners Dream Champion at the 2014 International Alpaca Odyssey (similar to Judge's Choice for the show). Her paternal grandsire, Snowmass Matrix Majesty, won the Reserve Dark Herdsire of the Year award at the 2011 Futurity as well as the Fawn Championship at the 2010 Futurity. Offspring: On 9/19/19, Sincerely Majestic gave birth to a pretty white female sired by Estates Purely Appraising. On 7/24/21, Sincerely Majestic presented us with a beautiful light fawn female sired by our outstanding 13x champion, Estates Passionate Fever.

What a handsome package! This erect, solid frame, large bone male has a beautiful phenotype with fantastic coverage! Then opening up an extremely fine fleece, consistent with uniformity of microns across the blanket is a true joy! Check out Hot Chocolate's DENSITY! Holy Moly! You would have to see the most elite alpaca to compare. Hot Chocolate has TWO traits ranking in the Top 5% EPDs in 2023 and FIVE Traits in the Top 10% EPDs for 2023! MC1R + ASIP Genotype: Ee AA COVID interfered with Hot Chocolate's show career, but that didn't stop him from earning 2x Get of Sire Blue Ribbons for his exceptional progeny! Hot Chocolate is the son of 9x Champion, CCNF Legionnaire, a 5-time Judges Choice winner as well as a Futurity Champion and AOA Reserve Champion. Legionnaire's 2018 micron test was AFD: 17.9 SD: 3.4 CV: 21.2 %>30: 0.5 and mean curvature of 58.6. He passes on amazing fleece traits including superior density to all his offspring. Hot Chocolate’s paternal sibling has the highest density from a skin biopsy ever recorded at 127.2 follicles/mm. CCNF Legionnaire is sporting a very Elite and stunning linage. Hot Chocolate's paternal grandparents are Snowmass Matrix Majesty (Snowmass Matrix X Snowmass Simply Scrumptious) and 10X Champion, CCNF Magdalena (Snowmass Legacy Gold X PPeruvian Jesusa.) His dam, Amber Autumn Holly Ho, won multiple Blue-Ribbons in 2014-2015, as well as 1st place and Reserve Champion at the 2014 Best of the US show. Hot Chocolate's maternal grandsire is a numerous Blue-Ribbon winner, Eclipse Alyst (out of Australian import, Jolimont 2 Peruvian Sweet William). Amber Autumn stated: "We purchased Eclipse Alyst because of his color, pedigree, and incredible dense fleece that has luster, handle, staple length, and very nice fineness. Eclipse always shears our heaviest weighted fleece even at 8 years of age and is still holding his fineness nicely." Hot Chocolate’s first offspring have arrived and while there are only a few, they are gorgeous. We are astounded by their density, glowing brightness, independent bundles and micro-bundling, beautiful crimp and style, uniformity, and extremely fine fiber. In fact, their fleeces each have superior traits in all aspects. This covers beautiful frames with correct conformation, great coverage, and strong bone. Hot Chocolate is also producing offspring usually darker than the dam. The darkest is currently dark brown. We can’t wait to utilize these prepotent genetics next season and see more cria! Watch for his cria in our show-string and contact us for a breeding to create a stunning cria of your own!
