Still just 18 micron at 2 years old, this production female has stunning fiber characteristics and elite bloodlines. She is as dense as she is fine so it's like pushing your hands into an endless pile of silk. Noire was a wonderful shocker when she was born! We bred our queen white Snowmass Don Julio daughter to our Ultimate silky herdsire Snowmass Porteus. We were thinking we might get fawn. But when this gorgeous black bundle popped out we about fell over. Now we knew that Snowmass Don Julio's Prestige had produced the World Class record breaking grey Premier's Absolute, so we knew she had color in her genetics and our gamble paid off big time. You can only imagine what this girl's fleece is like. Gorgeous handle, silky shine, dense, consistent. I'd love to keep her in our herd forever, but as Ron says "everything is for sale" so she is available. She has had one dark silver grey daughter and one true black son from a fawn herdsire. Her black gene is strong and her grey genetics are there too. I'd love to see her bred to a silver grey herdsire at some point. Due to some complications with my health, we're making our herd a more manageable size. We are going on our 14th year in the business and these alpacas represent significant research and genetic advances. I wish I could keep them all, but this is a great opportunity for a well bred Reiling Ranch alpaca at a great price. Her sire is featured in Snowmass Alpaca's Making of Champions Fiber Brochure as an example of a "Silky" alpaca. There are not many Snowmass Porteus daughters out there and she is a treasure. We never thought we'd sell her and have had her priced pretty high, until now. However, she carries genetics top and bottom that we have heavily entrenched in our herd. Her full brother is a working herdsire on our ranch with the most amazing fleece stats...lingering fineness. She has a very square build and still has excellent fleece coverage even at 5 years old and in Texas! This is an excellent chance to put a very powerful black girl in your foundation herd. She is everything! Dense, fine, consistent, good bone with coverage to her toes. She's a sweet girl and is a pleasure to have in our herd. She has given us richly colored cria that have that gorgeous silky style fleece that is our favorite. She will be sold with a breeding to any of our herdsires that you'd like. Snowmass King of Hearts is a great option based on what he's producing. Katmadu is a no brainer and we'll be struggling to make our decision! But, wait....Snowmass Lunar Challenger is another good option also and his first cria just won a color championship as a juvi! The exciting thing is that she's proven to produce black when bred to non-black herdsires, so the choices are fun! She is true black at the skin and very shiney with beautiful crimp architecture.

Description

Wow Wow Wow. This was a breeding we were very excited about. We took one of our top black dams who is daughter of Snowmass Porteus and Snowmass Don Julio's Prestige and bred her to 13 time and Judges Choice Champion Sunset Hills Golden Thunder. We didn't really care what color we got, we were simply interested in outstanding fiber with this breeding. Well, to not only get the fiber we'd hoped for, BUT to also get BLACK was an AWESOME stroke of luck. This maternal line produces a silky style fleece and our boy got that wonderful handle and brightness that comes with that style. He has tons of staple length to go with that bright shiny fleece! The combination of all his sire's wonderful attributes and his dams' is playing out beautifully with this boy. He is built like a tank; very solid and large boned.
