I just fell in love with Sicario the 1st time I saw him. After 24 years in the alpaca business I am not easily taken in, but he just took my breath away. At 7 months old he looked like he was sitting in a cascading puddle of silky fleece and he had the most adorable face I'd ever seen. I was smitten. Sicario put most of his energy into his fleece his 1st 2 years but continued to be successful in the show ring , and now is a big strapping guy and breeding successfully. Sicario's crias are on the ground now and they are gorgeous! Silky, high luster, with dad's gorgeous head style and straight build. So far they have followed the dam's color-- from light fawn to true black. I'm excited to announce that Rogue Alpacas has bought a 50% interest in Sicario! I'm proud to call them friends and partners on 2 fabulous studs now. Sicario is spending the summer at Rogue Alpacas in Medford, OR.

Who's My Daddy Now? has a story to tell. A case of mistaken paternal parentage when she was registered. Either Daddy would have been great, but it turns out it was really El Dorado Accoyo Rubicon, and I"m glad to have those outstanding genetics. Rubicon stood at the pinnacle of EPD's for AFD for quite awhile, so imagine what he brought to the table! Because of her spunky cria behavior she became known as Peppy-- much easier to say than her full name. Peppy's mom is my all-time favorite alpaca, AWH Torbio's Moulin Faon (AKA the Hobbit because of all the fleece down her legs and between her toes). She was one of the original Peruvian Torbio daughters, with her mom's side going back to Pperuvian Inca and Pucara Halcyon. She gave us another outstanding baby this year! Peppy's 2024 female cria, AWH Sicario's Teacake just sold as a juvenile. Teacake has the most amazing "face paint" aside from dense, greasy locks. Peppy and RGSA Sicario make an OUTSTANDING combo! She will make an amazing foundation fawn herd for new owners, Zahler Farm. Congratulations, Wes and Matt! I can't wait to see her new cria. I'm holding my breath.
