Ezekial's Challenger of Marquam Hill

HuacayaHerdsire (Male)White

AOA# 31499897DOB: 7/30/201014 yrs

He has the phenotype that we look for in our alpacas, and the judges seem to agree. He carries a high amplitude and high frequency crimp that runs from skin to tip. It is consistent from shoulder to hip, up the neck, and down into the belly and legs. As you separate his fleece, the staples separate into smaller staples supporting the incredible density of his very fine fleece. That uniformity is demonstrated in his very soft handle. Dr. Norm Evans said that " Ezekial's Challenger of Marquam Hill has the highest Skin Biopsy Results I have found in 2012 and his results are in the top 1% of all the alpacas I have tested" We have sold out of breedings for Challenger in 2012, 2103,2015...etc... (Sold out in five days) however we are taking reservations for no more than 4 outside breeding in 2023. Challenger is still rockin the fleece!

Bloodlines, quality and cuteness all wrapped up in one! Isabella’s fleece looks just as beautiful in person as it does in the picture, and then add her fineness, bundling and staple length. Isabella’s sire, Snowmass Elite Iceman, not only holds an amazing 14 championships, he at 5 years of age, carries a very fine fleece with a 5 year AFD of 17.7. His skin biopsy at 4 years of age tested 80 follicles per sq mm and showed no medulation and an AFD of 16.97.

Description

Proudly co-owned with Badger Canyon Alpacas and Thordarson Farms Alpacas! Ace has everything you need. Fineness, uniformity of micron, exceptional staple length, brightness and high frequency crimp structure that is carried throughout his blanket and well into his extremities. Are you needing density? Ace’s high shear weight despite being exceptionally fine and uniform in that fineness tells me he is superior in that trait as well. Also, he is just too cute for words with his nice stocky bone and build coupled with full coverage and one of the most adorable heads I’ve ever seen. Genetics: I have personally had my hands on and know his background very well. Ezekiel’s challenger is a gorgeous male with fantastic fiber that was dense and well organized with beautiful brightness and crimp. He has a beautiful phenotype with lovely conformation. Peruvian Hum was born at the farm I worked had for 15 years before the Camerons had their astute eyes on her and bought her. She was a beauty with a great head, great phenotype with fine bright high frequency crimp. Her dam, pequeno mayo, had a very fine vicuña like fleece style that was exceptionally fine and dense. Fletcher was a male owned by North Plains Alpacas and he was a very stocky robust male with fantastic bone and head coverage. He displayed very dense and high frequency crimp styled fleece. EVA McKenna (Ace’s granddam) who is the daughter of fletcher was once bred to Tronador and produced an incredible fleeced female named Danica that had an AFD of 13.3 and SD of 3. (There is a reason why we are thrilled to have these genetics to breed our Accoyo America Tronador granddaughters and daughters to). McKenna went on to produced Ace’s dam, NPA Isabella, who is a top foundation female for Thordarson Farms. Isabella is by Snowmass Elite Iceman who I have personally bred a few alpacas to before he passed because of his fantastic elite quality fiber and lovely phenotype. Then there is Elite who I got to see when he was very, very old, but boy did he still maintain an powerful fleece for his age and there is a reason why he is the backbone of several of the best alpacas in the country to this day. Are you sensing a theme here with his genetics and style of fleeces throughout his lineage?
