Josef produces Champions! His offspring are stunning with super fine micron, high gloss luster and beautifully dense lock structure. He is the ultimate prepotent stud that passes his superior traits to his offspring. Josef won his first Get of Sire class in 2018 as a five-year-old stud. Josef is the son of multi-champion Pucara's Kahuna and Big Timber's award-winning dam, KBTA's Kerolyn. His genetics are packed with the best suri bloodlines...Kahuna, Armani, Miquel, Uribe. Josef's offspring have proven his ability to pass through these awesome genetics. Josef's fine fleece is dense with incredible staple length. His first fleece AFD was a superfine 17.1 micron with an SD of 3.3 and is ranked in the top EPDS in the country. His second-year fleece was a close 19 micron with a continued SD of 3.3. As noted in his biopsy report below, at 45 months, his AFD is a very fine 21 micron. One of Josef's fleece strengths is his staple length. At over 4 years, his staple length is over 6.5 inches annual growth. His staple length along with his above average density contributes to his superior annual fleece weight of over 11 lbs., putting him in the top 1% for FW in the most recent EPDs. In 2018, Josef won Reserve Invited Champion as a 4.5-year-old competing against much younger animals. In 2017, Josef, as a 3.5-year-old male, was awarded Invited Color Champion and First Place at the 2017 AOA National Halter Show for white Suri male and Color Champion and First Place at the competitive 2017 CABA Classic Show. In 2016 as a mature male, he was awarded Color Champion and First Place at the 2016 Futurity Halter Show and First Place at the 2016 AOA Nationals Show. He also won First Place and Color Champion at the 2016 CABA show in both the halter and fleece shows. Josef was evaluated in 2017 in the SHIP (Suri Herd Improvement Program) by Cheryl Gehly. He received a perfect 5 score in all conformation categories. For fleece characteristics, he scored perfect 5's for lock structure, uniformity of color and fleece phenotype. He scored 4.5's for density and handle. He scored 4's in the areas of luster (luster score of 18), fineness (20 micron) and uniformity of micron. Josef is truly the whole package! At 11 years old, Josef has outstanding rankings of Top 5% in the 2024 EPDs that confirm his genetic prepotence. Dr. Norm Evans conducted a skin biopsy analysis in 2017 on Josef at 45 months old. His true density is 53.5 follicles SQ MM of skin and 25 typical fiber clusters show an average S/P of 9.8 to 1. Tested 100 secondary fibers average of 20.1 microns while 50 primary fibers average 29.4 microns for a variation of 9.3 microns. Josef’s AFD on July 8, 2017, at 45 months of age figures 21.03 microns. Excellent results for a mature male.

I am thrilled to co-own this incredible male with Beverly and Jason Brehm of Rogue Alpacas! Thanks for letting me share the joy of owning him. Vindication is my idea of the ideal white suri male alpaca. His fleece is dense, consistent, fine and highly lustrous. His blocky, square frame makes him a solid conformational base for almost every female in my herd. Consequently, I bred him to every white or light female in my herd last summer. We have 10 Vindication crias coming this summer (2024), and are waiting with building excitement. Rogue Alpacas says about Vinny: "Vindication, as he is rightfully named, was one of the only males born to Rogue Alpacas before Spectacular Bid's passing in late 2019. Not only is he the only male to date that his Dam, Tintiy has produced, we couldn't have picked a better male for her to have had one with. Vinny as he is called here at Rogue represents quality in every aspect. He already is exhibiting thick ropey locks with tremendous luster thoughout, an absolute splitting image of his sire at this age. Vinny did not get to make his 2020 debut due to show system cancellations but that is okay, this boy is going to make his mark on 2021 and rightfully so!" Biopsy Report by Dr. Norm Evans; 59.25 Follicles per SQ MM; S/P 9.3; AFD 19.33; S/P Micron Spread 7.8; Vinny's breedings are still open at Windy Hill, so get in line to send your females. I am offering FREE TRANSPORT home from CABA or GWAS for breedings this summer. A MOMENT FOR WHITE SURI: Let me take just a minute to give a pitch for white suri fleece. Because of its high luster and silky fineness, I believe white suri is the basis for improving and pumping up any suri breeding program. Because Suris represent such a small % of the national herd, white has a unique place in expanding the reach of suri in a practical, someday commercial industry. Don't get me wrong--- I love the other natural colors! Suri luster makes them all stand out in a way that is breath-taking. But I also believe that white suri is the standard by which all suri is measured. Come take a look!
