Seriously Silver is packing on gorgeous silky dense solid silver fiber. We call him Spot (spot below nostril) to simplify things here. He has huge bone like both parents. His dam is a Legend's Peruvian Revelation of KPR daughter with Accoyo Goldsmith and Accoyo Felix heading up her maternal side. Spot's sire is our Sierra's Seismic who when shown took many close 2nds to Jacob Black. They share about 3/4 of the same ancestry. Seismic has very strong black genetics and grey with Our Black Jag, Black Mesquite, CPeruvian Black Knight, CPeruvian Silvio, Matado, and then some Winchester to throw some fawn in the mix. Spot has the strong black making genetics from his sire. However, his 4 offspring so far are 2 silver's from silver dams, BB from a mrg and TB from a DF. I have bred him to 3 girls for '25 cria. I couldn't use him last year as I had to get another male started. He is related to many of my darks.
This guy is at his prime and still has gorgeous fleece-just sent in his 6th fleece for yarn that was just under 4 lbs that was heavily skirted so that I'd have enough for roving too. He is easy to handle on lead. He needs to be used more to make great black and greys with gorgeous crimp, density and fineness. Sorry, I have not had time to get fleece data since 2019 but I can send samples to prospective owners-I also have yarn you can ogle over if you come to see him in person! Self-employed with two businesses and 40 plus alpacas.... I'm trying to lessen some labor by decreasing both males and females. That 2019 National Show 2nd place was behind Karen Ball's boy-she won in all the grey classes! The 2020 National show was the same boy in 1st and modern grey in 2nd so his 3rd would have been another 2nd if huge class was split like other shows.
