2 Color Championships, A Reserve Color Champion & 7 First Place Ribbons for this herdsire! Absolutely remarkable rose grey male with wonderful genetics! Super dense, fine, crimpy and all his offspring are following in his footsteps! 1st Place at AOBA and Reserve Color Champion as the youngest in his class at the Virginia Classic in 2006. The show season in 2007 placed him as 1st and Color Champion in fleece at the CABO show, 1st and Color Champion at the Virginia Classic and 1st at MAPACA. He is a remarkable male! See his PowerPoint or our website for full show results. Aragorn has the power of blue blood from his sire Gandalf son of the award winning Ameripaca’s Achilles. Achilles is son of the True Black 1995 Bolivian Grand National Champion “Acero Marka's Champ”. Champ is a Bolivian import who has many offspring whom are AOBA, Futurity, & MAPACA show ring winners. Aragorn’s Dam placed 1st at an International Level Alpaca Show in Palm Springs, CA in 1999. She is a gorgeous female and it’s exciting to see such quality genetics on both sides of his pedigree. His dam has shown lingering fineness even into her 10th year! Aragorn, Sebastiana and CocoKhan represented Fireweed in Breeder’s Best award and we placed 2nd in a very large class of highly respected, well financed and long time breeders showing mostly white and light fawn and we were showing rose greys and medium brown.

SIRE FWD Gandalf the Grey

Color: Medium Rose Grey   ARI# 843459    CLAA#

An exceptional male that is racking up the ribbons! Tight crimp, smooth color - awesome! His first 4 crias on the ground are Rose Grey- even from Brown! Three of his offspring will hit several shows this Spring and we expect them to go home with top placings!

DAM INCA Bettina Ita

Color: Dark Silver Grey   ARI# 811962    CLAA#

First place winner of the International show in Palm Springs California 1999. Exceptional quality animal. Her rose grey 2005 cria is exceptional and the nicest rose grey animal we have ever seen. Bettina's fleece isn't as nice as in her early years, but her cria is magnificent! Dense, crimpy.
