Contact us to see how this powerful herdsire can take your breeding program to the next level.

Macho fits his name perfectly as he stands very strong and confident. Not only does he have perfect confirmation but he has a very pleasing to the eye, bright fleece. His fleece has a very tight high frequency crimp structure, which is dense but maintains fineness and uniformity, resulting in a very soft handle.

He has a powerhouse of genetics behind him with well-known names such as Snowmass Matrix (3x Champion and highest selling alpaca at auction $675,000), Snowmass Quechua, Accoyo Elite, Snowmass Maree Love, Hemingway, and Legacy and that is just his father’s side. He also has TGF I-Star’s Priestess (1x JC, 3x Champion), Snowmass IncaAccoyo Star, Snowmaster, Snowmass Accoyocusani, Augusto, and Legacy on his mother’s side.
