Snowmass MR Sizlin Rose (Sizzy) is a simply divine light brown, male with extremely bright fleece, full of high-frequency high amplitude Mirco bundles, as well as carrying a very dense fleece with an amazing handle. Several of the top Judges have called him "The Total Package." With him being an exceptional twelve-time champion, including the 2012 AOBA National Alpaca Show Halter Color Champion & 2012 The Futurity Halter Color Champion. Snowmass MR Sizlin Rose has been breeding for us for several years now and we couldn't be more pleased with the amount of improvement he has made to our herd. In 2014, we consigned Snowmass MR Sizlin Rose to the 2014 Amber Autumn Auction (AAA) and he ended up selling for $90,000, making him the highest-selling Snowmass Matrix Rose offspring to date. He was sold to Daryl and Shirley Krause of Amber Autumn Alpacas in Oregon. A year later we ended up acquiring half ownership of Sizzy with both of us, Amber Autumn Alpacas and Red Granite Ranch, closing Sizzy to all outside breedings. Though his offspring will be offered at both ranches and depending on the year, some outside breedings may be offered. We, Red Granite Ranch and Amber Autumn Alpacas are very happy to announce that Snowmass MR Sizlin Rose won the 2016 Huacaya Herdsire Of The Year, large breeder Division, as well as the 2017 Reserve Herdsire Of The Year Dark-colored offspring, large breeder Division. Snowmass MR Sizlin Rose was mentioned in The American Alpaca Journal, Issue 2, January 2020 in the “Black Ring Demographics” where Sizzy appeared in the top five genetic contributors to the winning black groups in the 2018-19 black ring. Impressive indeed. His ~150 Registered offspring have won around 134 championship banners and 4 AOA National Dark Male Supreme Championships as of 2020. Sizzy is the sire to RED GRANITES VAL D LSERE the 2016, 2017, and 2018 AOA National Dark Male Supreme Championship winner & LIBERTY'S MANIFEST-DESTINY the 2020 AOA National Dark Male Supreme Championship winner. 4/6 Dark Male Supreme Championship trophys have been sired by Sizzy, no other sire has accoplished this!! Sizzy is currently at Red Granite Ranch, and we have decided to close him to further outside breedings. Bred females can be acquired as can his offspring.

ESTATES SAKIMA'S VENUS Venus is a black genetic powerhouse with excellent staple formation along with length, brightness and density. She has a lovely phenotype & a perfect bite. Venus is the daughter of Black 6x Champion, Patagonia Estates Sakima, whose genetics include Snowmass Andean Midnight & Patagonia's Lennox - a magical combination for success! Sakima's progenies have won numerous awards on our show string, including BOTH Male & Female 2021 AOA National Invited Champion Banners; BOTH Male & Female Black Color Championship banners at the 2020 A-OK Blast-Off Halter show; Black Color Champion & Reserve Champion banners for the 2020 A-OK Blast-Off Walking Fleece Show! Sakima's offspring are also on our 2022 show string and are bringing home many banners this year as well! Her maternal grandsire is our exceptional 10x champion, Patagonia's Antonio who exhibits a fine, uniform fleece with a high frequency crimp. We believe Antonio is one of the top Lennox sons ever produced! Antonio's offspring first hit the show ring in 2016 and continue to perform well on our show string. We are excited to announce that senior AOA judge Amanda VandenBosch awarded Sakima's Venus first place at the 2022 TXOLAN Sweetheart Spectacular. Next, she won 1st Place and Reserve Champion at the 2022 California Classic show! (** Ranch mate, Crescent Moon's Magdalena, was color champion.) We are tickled pink! At the 2022 Gold Country Gathering show, Venus received a second-place ribbon (just under ranch-mate Crescent Moon's Magdalena). There was no black female championship at that show. For Venus' first breeding we selected Snowmass Mr Sizlin Rose, an exceptional twelve-time champion, including the 2012 AOBA National Alpaca Show Halter Color Champion and 2012 The Futurity Halter Color Champion. Snowmass MR Sizlin Rose won the 2016 Huacaya Herdsire of The Year, large breeder Division, as well as the 2017 Reserve Herdsire Of The Year Dark-colored offspring, large breeder Division. An incredible 134 CHAMPIONSHIP BANNERS have been won by his offspring! She is due in March 2024. Offspring: On 3/25/24, Venus presented us with a beautiful medium fawn female sired by Snowmass Mr Sizlin Rose (2016 Futurity Herdsire of the Year and 2017 Futurity Reserve Herdsire of the Year).
