Lord Tennyson has it all, wonderful bloodlines – Bueno, Caligula, El Patron, The Silversmith; incredible fleece – brilliant white, tight, crimpy bundles; good size and conformation; and incredible presence. Tennyson has inherited the great fleece shearing weight of his sire Lord Byron, like his sire Tennyson shears around 10 pounds. In addition to all these wonderful characteristics, Tennyson is a gentle boy with an incredible sense of presence about him. At the 2009 VAOBA Expo Fleece Show, he was awarded the Reserve Color Championship. Earlier that year, he won First in the light class of the Virginia Classic Walking Fleece Fiber Futurity for the second time in a row. In 2008 he won as the youngest in the class at exactly 6 months of age (and went on to win Best in Futurity), and next year as the oldest in the class, just one day shy of 18 months. He continues to do well in regional and national shows. Lord Tennyson’s first crias hit the ground in 2011, and they are incredible. Tennyson’s Milton has lovely fleece, conformation, and that sense of presence that hints at great things to come. Tennyson’s Becket has all that in fawn, and Timbuctoo has incredible fiber and one of the sweetest faces I’ve ever seen. In 2012, we welcomed Lady Clare (and an almost identical beauty who was born off the farm) and Sir Galahad in the spring and Tennyson’s Arthur and White Owl in the fall. They offer additional proof that Tennyson is producing consistently dense, bright and conformationally correct offspring. You can see his stamp in their adorable ‘teddy bear’ faces and fleece. We were very pleased when Tennyson won First in the 2013 VA Classic Get of Sire. At the same show, Sir Galahad repeated Tennyson's success in the Walking Fleece competition, winning First and Champion. Consider the benefits of adding Lord Tennyson’s great genetics to your herd.

Treasure is a beautiful girl who is very expressive and will tell you exactly what she's thinking. A real hummer, Treasure comes right up to see what you are doing. Treasure is never left out at food time. She knows how to stand up for herself and get her share. Treasure is the exact image of her award winning sire, Tropical Pirate. She has great genetic lines on both sides (including Demetrio and Matador), and a Color Champion sister on her dam's side. I love the feel of her fleece, and the fact there is so much of it. Treasure gave birth to her first cria in 2012, a beautiful, white female with incredibly dense fleece like her sire Lord Tennyson. For 2013, she is bred to the fabulously dense Kubla Khan.

Polar Ice is the newest addition to our herdsire lineup at Peaceful Heart Alpacas. He brings an incredible genetic background including Jedi Accoyo of the USA, Caligula, and Bolivian Ice Man, and a fabulous, dense, buttery soft fleece full of beautiful crimp. He has been in the show ring many times and has brought home an impressive collection of ribbons including 11 First Place, 3 Reserve Color Championships (two in halter and one in fleece), and a Color Championship at the 2012 Buckeye Show. We first saw Polar Ice at the 2013 Virginia Classic where we were struck with his presence as he walked into the ring, and watched as he walked away with yet another First Place win. We are excited to have Polar Ice enter our breeding program. His first crias born this year are fabulous. Contact us to schedule a breeding with Polar Ice today. We also have some great females for sale now who are bred to Polar Ice for fall 2014 crias.
