Shavano is our true black, full Peruvian, half Accoyo male who was named the 2010 AAA Futurity Dark Herdsire of the Year. His lock and density are extreme for a black suri. His mother, GLL Macatawa is a medium fawn daugher of 4 P Macusani, one of our foundation females who had 8 female crias for us in a row. Shavano's sire is 4 P Miguel a white, full accoyo male. As a juvenile, Shavano was Black Male Color Champion at the AAA Futurity in 2006 and Reserve at MAPACA. As a yearling he was first in his class at both the AAA Futurity and AOBA that year, after being shorn the previous spring. His first crop of crias were shown in 2009. We only showed two crias that year, GLR Arappaho, now owned by Linda Kondris of Pine's Edge Suri Alpacas in Colorado, who won both the MAPACA and AOBA Black Male Color Championship, and GLR Tica, who was the Reserve Brown Female Champion at both the AAA Futurity and MAPACA. So far this spring GLR Tica has gone on to win the Reserve Brown Female Championship at the 2010 AAA Futurity as a yearling and the Brown Female Color Championship and Judges Choice at GWAS in Denver. Shavano also won Get of Sire in Denver, with three colored suris. Shavano won the Dark Herdsire of the year at the AAA Futurity with 4 Reserve Color Championships in both Black and Brown, in both the male and female catagories. GLR Tica went on to win the 2010 AOBA Nationals Brown Female Color Championship and GLR Ali was awarded the 2010 ABOA Reserve Black Female Color Championship.
Shavano offspring were responsible for Great Lakes Ranch being named the 2010 and the 2011 AAA Futurity Medium Size Breeder of the Year and the 2012 AAA Futurity Reserve Breeder of the Year.

Rockstar's Peruvian Paloma has it all. We purchased her from Mary and Kirk Evans at TPC auction. She is awesome and we are thrilled to have her in our Great Lakes foundation herd. She was shown three times in 2006 and was Color Champion at all three shows ( AAA Futurity, Ohio Buckeye Show & OABA Alpacafest).Her last show before retiring to be shorn and become a mom was the 2007 AAA Futurity, where she won Color Champion, once again. Her first cria was a beautiful rose grey little girl, GLR Picassa, sired by Platinum Marquis bought at the TPC auction by Cindy Harris and Doug Fieg of Alpacas at Windy Hill. GLR Picassa, as a juvenile was 3rd at the 2008 AAA Futurity, 1st and Reserve Grey Female Color Champion at MAPACA 2008, the biggest alpaca show in the nation and 1st and Reserve Grey Female Champion at the 2008 AOBA Nationals in Sandy Utah. Paloma's 2008 cria, GLR Pomona, is a stunning dark brown Synergy daughter, sold to Mike and Janet Wilkins at our Great Lake Classic Sale in 2009. Her 2009 cria is a super greasy, incredibly dense dark copper colored male, with a 15.8 micron count, GLR Picasso, who made his debut at the AAA Futurity and GWAS, at just 6 months old and won Reserve Brown Male Color Champion at both shows. He is co-owned now with Airell and Gretchen Nygaard of Eventyrgaard Alpacas in Sonora, CA. Paloma had another copper colored Shavano son, GLR Pablo in 2010 who was the 2012 Brown Color Champion, now breeding and available for sale. Paloma's Shavano son in 2011, GLR Paulo did well in the show ring in 2012. Her 2013 son GLR Painter, a Rastamon son was purchased by Marty and Mary Raynor and will be standing stud at M and M Alpaca Farm in North Carolina. In 2014 Paloma had a Cinders son GLR Pastor who looks to be turning bay black and coming along nicely. She is bred back to CInders and expecting in September 2015.
Description
PICASSO"S daughters, Limerick of Pines Edge was named the 2019, AOA SUPREME CHAMPION, Dark Suri Female and GLR Sloan, Halo Ranch, was named the 2018, AOA SUPREME CHAMPION, Dark female Suri. That's two in a row for Picasso!
Exceptional Data Translates to Exceptional Progeny. PICASSO'S biopsy and histogram scores are outstanding and the proof of his quality is in his offspring. Picasso sons and daughters have garnered numerous banners, Judge's Choice Awards and AOA National Supreme Championships!
Look at PICASSO'S stats and you can understand why he consistently produces top quality offspring. His biopsy scores are some of the best we've seen. S/P ratio of 11.1-1 and micron variation of just 3.8!! (19.1 to 22.9 microns) Add to this, high density of 58.25 follicles/sq mm, top gland rating of 4/4, and only 30% medullated fibers resulting in a dense, fine fleece with outstanding, smooth handle.
At three years of age, six fiber samples were taken. Three on each side, hip. mid-side and shoulder. The results showed amazing consistency of micron across the blanket, low SD and high comfort factor.
PICASSO has an exceptional, award winning, sire and dam, and he himself has been twice named Champion at Futurity. PICASSO is sired by Shavano, the signature true black herdsire at Great Lakes Ranch, and the 2010 Futurity Dark Herdsire of the Year. PICASSO'S dam, Rockstar's Peruvian Paloma, is a multiple color champion producing exceptional cria.
PICASSO'S first offspring was GLR Amayah, and she was named Reserve Brown Female Color Champion as a juvenile at the 2013 AOBA Nationals. The next year Amayah, continued to win championships and the coveted Judges Choice Award at the Futurity, and Brown Color Champion at the Suri Network Fleece show. Picasso's beautiful true black daughter, GLR Jamiyah, was a multiple color champion and earned 2 Judges Choice awards at the 2015 AOA Nationals and the 2015 MAPACA Jubilee. And, the list goes on. Now Picasso's daughters, Limerick of Pines Edge and GLR Sloan, have both been named AOA NATIONAL SUPREME CHAMPIONS. Picasso's kids are rocking the show ring. Shouldn't your girls be breeding to Picasso?
Congratulations to Bob and Lisa at Memory M-Acres for their purchase of this outstanding, prepotent, Suri male.
