Handsome son of lavender grey herdsire, 3X Champion Rare Gem Privateer's First Mate, and true black dam, Granite Bay National Velvet. National Velvet is a daughter of 3X Futurity Herdsire of the Year-- US Steel. This boy's pedigree is packed with elite grey and black genetics. Sea Señor has been color genotyped as EE a1a2. He carries no dilution and two black alleles— including a1 which produces beautiful blue black. Sea Senor will be an asset to a black and grey breeding program. Another exciting pairing for this male will be appaloosa's carrying a dilution gene. By pairing with such a female, offspring have the potential to be classic appaloosa and even harlequin appaloosa. We have paired him with some of our very best here at Rare Gem Alpacas and are excited to see the 2024 progeny!

Jolene is a typey, well-expressed appaloosa female with curb appeal galore. She is the daughter of 4X banner winner, Crescent Moon's Isidora (a Shiftin Gears daughter) and the wildly expressive harlequin appaloosa, Apache Gentleman. Jolene's sire-- Apache Gentleman has over 30 registered offspring of which the majority are either appaloosa or harlequin. Both of Jolene's parents are the producers of champion offspring. Apache has a number of champion offspring including 3X champion Apache Gentlemen's Alchesay. Additionally, Apache now has two Get of Sire awards with his appaloosa and harlequin offspring -- a 1st place and 2nd place. (Photos included on Apache's page). Apache's pedigree is packed on both sides with wonderfully expressed appaloosas and harlequins. Jolene is a wonderful representation of crossing light colored, elite-fleece genetics with wildly, expressive harlequin appaloosa genetics. The stars aligned and Jolene has been stamped with the best from both! We are very excited about the quality of Jolene's fleece and for her first show, we entered her in the 2023 AOA National Fleece Show resulting in her first banner-- Multi Reserve Color Champion. Jolene is proudly co-owned with Stone Pine Farm.
