"This male is something special, an honor to be judging him." - 2018 AOA National Show after winning his third Supreme Championship. 28-time Get of Sire Winner, 2X Herdsire of the Year & 4X Herdsire of the Year Dark-Colored Offspring In the thoroughbred industry, it's often said that you breed the best to the best and then hope for the best. That certainly wasn't the case when Red Granites Val D Lsere took out the Dark Male Supreme Champion award at the AOA National Show for three consecutive years in a row -- all the ingredients were there for a born champion recipe, and they were expertly combined and brilliantly presented. Red Granites Val D Lsere is ONE IN A MILLION. Our first ever alpaca to reach vicuna fine fleece at 13.9 microns with intense curvature at 64.6, making profound impressions in the huacaya breeding programs in his first breeding years, and will continue for many more years to come, he is the TRUE definition of the ideal huacaya. His fleece has been described numerous times by international judges as the most highly developed fleece they have ever seen. Val D Lsere and his successes make him one of the most successful alpacas in US history and judges have said he is the best they have seen. He has a very bright, extraordinarily dense, fine fleece with a merino-type crimp style. Val is a very compact male with a very strong heavy bone structure. All of these traits are being seen in his offspring. He rapidly rose to a legendary level and is, without a doubt, one of the most significant alpacas ever to be born at Red Granite Ranch and possibly in the US, and is one of the most highly decorated alpacas in the world. Val D Lsere is truly revolutionary for the next generation of Huacaya fleeces and genetics. He has produced colors all across the spectrum, including rose and silver-grey. He has already produced AOA National Champions & Futurity Champions. He is shown to be EXTREMELY POTENT with producing top-quality animals no matter the color of the offspring or dam. If you get your hands on his genetics do not let go of them, they are PRICELESS. Offspring have sold for auction at high prices of $40K, $41K, and even $130K!! Considering only two of his offspring lay outside of the US, his lines are extremely favorable here in the US, so if you get a hold of his genetics do not let them go! Fiber and Fleece Description EXQUISITE in all respects. Merino and Vicuna's qualities are pushed together. Red Granites Val D Lsere is the Herdsire who is dominating the New Generation. He is a restricted herdsire, no outside breedings are offered. Offspring may be offered at auction or through private sales (on very rare occasions). 2022 #1 National High Point Huacaya Male 2022 #2, #7, & #8 National High Point Huacaya Female 2023 #10 National High Point Huacaya Female, Halter 2023 #3, #4, & #10 National High Point Huacaya Male, Fleece

Description

This well grown, upstanding, true to type male has exceptional fleece qualities and great phenotype. With color in his background, we expect him to produce extreme COLORED and WHITE offspring! Red Granites Bracken By Val D Lsere exhibits excellent brightness within his fleece and is very fine with good density, well organized crimp that bundles and excellent staple. All these traits you would expect as a son of our very own, Red Granites Val D Lsere. His sire needs little -- to no introduction as he has claimed three AOA National Dark Male Supreme Championships, and was the 2021 Futurity Herdsire of the Year, 2021 Futurity Reserve Light Herdsire of the Year, and 2021, 2022, and 2023 Futurity Dark Herdsire of the Year. In our opinion, he stands as one of the most distinguished colored huacaya males in the world. Red Granites Bracken's Dam, HDF Peruvian Batista, was one of the finest animals from Heart's Desire Farm, she was rated as one of the best they have produced. Batista had a first year histogram test of 12.2 with a curv of 62.9, second year 14.9, fifth year of 18.8. Her progeny have elite fiber traits and big bones and have all made their way into our foundation herd, which says a lot. She brings lingering fineness to the table. Bracken himself had a yearling histogram that reads: 16, 3.7, 22.8, 0.4, CURV 55.1 SPIN FINE 15.9 and a fourth year histogram that reads: 19.8, 4.0, 20.4, 1.9, CURV 53.9, SPIN FINE 19.2. His micron went up 3.8 microns and SD went up 0.3. This is a genetic trait from his dam: LINGERING FINENESS & UNIFORMITY. It was no surprise that Bracken was the primary excitement during his show career winning many championships and was still winning Best Bred & Owned banners as a 2-Year-old breeding male. One of the championships was at the 2021 AOA National Show where he placed behind the light male Supreme Championship winner. He also took 1st place as a yearling at the Futurity 2021. He recently took the 2022 TXOLAN Sweetheart Spectacular Best Bred & Owned Male Award under Amanda V, and at the 2022 TXOLAN Bluebonnet Stakes side he won his class but lost to our Dark Fawn Val D Lsere son for the Best Bred & Owned Male award judges by Diana T. For those wanting to improve phenotype, fineness, and uniformity while adding high-frequency bundles, consider Bracken. Color Genotype: ee Aa2 (non-grey) Red Granites Bracken will produce white to true black depending on how he is bred. Fleece Description High-frequency staples expressed in a very uniform manner across his body. Excellent brightness is expressed within his fleece. Good density and staple growth.
