Grand River Columbo is a gorgeous son of Rincon Cloud. We purchased him from Whistler's Glen and Coffee Pot farms in Ohio to bring some rare gray genetics to our farm and the Midwest. He has put some stunning cria on the ground for those two farms as well as their customers. His fleece is holding the crimp structure very well for a breeding male. It is quite consistent throughout his entire frame. His fineness is incredible and he is dense, dense, dense. Really a well rounded alpaca in a gray fleece. His disposition is wonderful and his head is beautiful.
Ricon Cloud brings Crescent Moon's Rayo Del Sol, and Danko to the genetic mix as well as an incredible female in Camana's Snowy River. In addition to Rincon Cloud, Columbo's dam brings Dark Shaddow. These are highly sought after, impressive genetics. Any farm with a gray program should be giving Columbo serious consideration. Serious breeders know the Cloud line and understand it's value in breeding for gray.
We brought him home and Jim Shaw, Barb Bernardi and Bruce Bernardi of Prairie Rose Alpacas were impressed enough to purchase half interest in him!
Come take a look at him. You really need to see his fleece!
He has thrown grey from brown and black dams.
Columbo kids are doing well in the ring for us as well as customers who have bred to Columbo. Judges have commended his cria for excellent coverage from ears to toes, bright fleece and excellent handle.
We are just in LOVE with our Columbo son Spittin Image! He is a complete package and is
showing well for us. Keep and eye on him!
Another gray offspring from Columbo! She is a gorgeous, robust female out of a white dam!
Proudly co-owned with Prairie Rose Alpacas.
