GENOTYPE: Ee Aa3 Non-Grey We are thrilled to have added Ariya Pure Reserve’s Jophiel to our herdsire lineup in 2022! Jophiel encompasses everything we are looking for in a light-colored sire. His fleece is simply exquisite and is maturing nicely. He is retaining excellent fineness and uniformity for age and displays amazing density from head to toe. He also has a strong typey conformation on a solid upright frame. Honestly, what’s not to love about this boy! Jophiel will certainly pass on his elite characteristics to his offspring as does his 3x Judge's Choice winning dam, Sunnyhill Conopa’s Spirit, and his game-changing sire, Snowmass Pure Reserve XX. Pure Reserve is known to cover black and has had many dark and even black offspring when bred to darker females. We have faith that Jophiel will also cover black and will be able to produce silvers and blacks when bred accordingly. Although we have bred Jophiel to some of our darker females to see what he produces, he will officially be genotyped in 2023 so we have a better understanding of his color potential. Jophiel is part of the ''Golden Line'' of full siblings (Sunnyhill Conopa’s Spirit x Snowmass Pure Reserve XX) produced before Pure Reserve's exportation to Europe. His full brother, Golden Treasure, is a 3x Fawn CC who won the Judge's Choice | Supreme Male award at the 2022 Alpaga Quebec Halter Show at the age of 45 months. His full sister, True Spirit, is a 4x Fawn CC who also won a Judge's Choice | Supreme Female award in 2018. Being part of an elite program and herd, Jophiel just happen to fly a bit under the radar compared to his full siblings so he does not have any show records. His pedigree, fiber stats and EPDs do however reveal his potential and place him in this elite golden group. We are confident that he will pass on his true potential to progeny and into our program. We would like to thank Ariya Alpacas for allowing us to bring Jophiel, an absolute gem, into our lineup!

GENOTYPE: EEaa We are so thrilled to have been able to add this amazing little female to our herd! Although Velvet Enchanted is dark brown, she is genotyped as EEaa which will certainly be an advantage in our program! This female's pedigree includes lines such as Enchanted (Matrix) and Touche. Her EPD is outstanding for a darker female and we cannot wait to see what she produces in our program! Velvet Enchanted was imported while bred to Snowmass Ring of Innovation. She gave us a beautiful little dark fawn female which in turn will cover black. This little girl came late in the season and was born in hospital due to a severe torsion. Both dam and cria were saved (hence her cria's name Miracle!) but we have decided to give the dam a breather to recover so she is currently open but will be bred in early 2023 for a 2024 summer cria. We look forward to many more crias from this exquisite female!
