GLR Kolaqua is a stunning dark silver grey 4P Condor grandson out of the only Condor daughter Brad and Jandy have ever kept on their ranch. His mother GLR Amelita, is a grey appaloosa who was the 2004 AAA Futurity Grey Female Color Champion. Kolaqua was the 2008 Grey Male Color Champion at both Mapaca and AOBA Nationals in Sandy Utah and won the 2009 AOBA Grey Male Color Championship in Cleveland. He is dense and greasy to the touch, has great luster, bone, a beautiful head and the mellow temperament of his papa, Synergy. His shear weight was an impressive 11.8 pounds! Kolaqua has two full siblings who are both multiple grey color champions as well: GLR Coyhaique, 2007 Mapaca Male Grey Color Champion, and 2007 AOBA Nationals Reserve Grey Color Champion, and GLR Atacama, 2009 AAA Futurity and MAPACA Grey Female Color Champion, and 2009 AOBA Nationals Grey Female Color Champion. Kolaqua started breeding in 2009 and and now has many seasons of offspring on the ground with plenty of blue ribbon and championship banner winners to his name. Two of his 2012 kids were GLR Rockoro, and GLR Tashina, who traveled with us in 2013 as members of our show string. Rockoro was the 2013 Reserve Grey Male Color Champion at both MAPACA and the AAA Futurity and the AOBA Nationals Grey Male Color Champion as a juvenile. GLR Tashina as a juvenile was the 2013 Reserve Grey Female Champion at both Mapaca and the AAA Futurity, and in 2014 was the AOA Nationals' and the AAA Futurity Grey Female Color Champion, and the first alpaca to win a Grey Judges Choice award ever. His 2013 cria, GLR Taj, was the last to be born in November that year and too young to show .He may very well be the best grey cria we have ever produced. He was born with wrinkles all the way down his neck and back and his luster is remarkable. His micron test came back at a little over two years old as a 19.3. We are very pleased with how he and all of his siblings have matured. Kolaqua keeps producing awesome cria both grey

Description
GLR Armani came from the Great Lakes Ranch breeding program. So, it was no shock that he took 3 reserve championships of which were Futurity and the National Alpaca Show. While, Armani originally was registered as fawn color, soon afterward his unique coloring appeared that still makes hearts pitter patter. He has a regal presence, high luster, nice bone, an amazing freckled face with a gentle confidence. There aren't too many full Peruvian grays in the world, and Armani is ROSE gray--a shade of taupe that swirls and stripes his body like a water color painting. He puts a whole new spin on "unusual".
While Armani won numerous awards, we think even better yet, he has numerous award-winning offspring. Proof is in his progeny and this guy over-and-over again has produced progeny of even better than he is himself! While you would surmise his specialty is producing colors like him, he has also done remarkably well in fawn, brown, silver greys, true black and a beautiful light multi! Really astounding in all colors! His award-winning daughter, Luna Vuitton, is part of our foundation. She has one of the best histograms in our herd 20 micron and 4.62 SD - really commendable especially in rose and silver grey color. Another daughter, Alfaro Family Farm's Victory Dance is simply stunning in medium silver grey. While another of his daughters, Alfaro Family Farm's Coco Chanel is truly one of his most stunning offspring you have ever set eyes, or hands on! She took numerous 1st places in the show ring with wonderful comments from judges in walking fleece -noting super fine micron of 12-14 AFD with noted luster throughout the tri-fold of colors. Recently a judge commented on his 1st placement of this girl who has what he refers to as "wet" luster which is truly astounding in any form of grey. Also, two Armani sons took brown color championships in the past.
For the 2019 almost all of his offspring were registered to show and due to the unfortunate pandemic, the shows got cancelled. We hope they get their turn to show in the future!
Contact us if you are interested in this guy. He is still taking breeding reservations, both through Windy Hill and Faith and Fleece Alpacas. He is also a pleasure handle - you can nearly always walk up in the pasture and halter him or he will sometimes follow you without a lead.
You get iconic design and more with Armani!
