Apollo is the perfect example of what we are looking for in a high-quality, seedstock herdsire, with his overall presence, perfectly balanced true-to-type frame, and his exceptionally uniform, dense fleece. To top it off he has an extremely gentle, calm temperament, so we think he's just about perfect! His lineage brings in some of the best genetics in the country, from his sire's Jumanji line to Dorian on his dam's side. His sire Koolassal is a Majestic Meadow's Jumanji son who's offspring are consistently excellent! Judges at virtually every show he attended from Fall 2020 through the end of Spring 2022 were wowed by his presence, stature and fleece characteristics, awarding him a total of 25 blue ribbons, 16 Color Championships, 4 Judges Choice awards, and 7 Reserve Championships including the AOA National Light Male Invited Champions RC, the AOA National Light Male RC and the AOA National Light Male Fleece RC. We are so proud to report that he has been awarded the National 2nd place High Point Huacaya Male for the Fall 2021-Spring 2022 AOA show season!

Color Genotype: Ee Aa2, non-grey Alpaca Palace's Z's Copper Penny is absolutely gorgeous—an eye-catching female with depth of color, style, and a pedigree that speaks for itself. Her sire, Sunset Hill's Zagato, truly needs no introduction. As the 2019 Futurity Dark Huacaya Herdsire of the Year and 2019 Futurity Dark Mixed Get of Sire Champion, Zagato has made a lasting impact on breeding programs nationwide. He has produced countless champion and Judges’ Choice-winning progeny from coast to coast, and Copper Penny is yet another example of the quality he consistently stamps onto his offspring. Her dam, Snowmass Everlasting Treasure, is a 4X Champion who brings an exceptional Snowmass foundation to this pedigree. With the elite influence of Snowmass Royalove and Snowmass Everlasting Paramount, she carries genetics known for producing lasting fineness, uniformity, and coveted fleece architecture. As a proven breeder, she reliably passes these traits forward—producing offspring that rank in the top 5% EPDs and regularly earn banners in competitive show rings. With this kind of powerhouse lineage, Copper Penny embodies the best of both worlds: elite Snowmass maternal genetics and Zagato’s undeniable prepotency. She represents the kind of female capable of elevating any breeding program through both performance and production.
