Red Granites Cricket - Deceased

Huacaya, Herdsire (Male), Proven | White

AOA# 839350837   D.O.B. 5/20/2016

Sire:
Accoyo America Kashmir 
| AOA# 31477093  | White  |
Lynn Edens of Little Creek Farm/Snowmass Alpacas describes Kashmir below:

"Accoyo America Kashmir is one of the rising stars of the Accoyo America Breeding program. Sired by Hemingway-Accoyo Nautilus, he is the younger paternal brother of three other sires working in the Accoyo America program, and is out of the awesome dam, Accoyo America Sha Na Na, an El Nino daughter and two-time AOBA champion who has produced one remarkable offspring after the next, most of whom have kept within the Accoyo America program.

How does a guy get an opportunity to work in a program where his genetics are already so well represented? By offering unmustakable excellence.

Kashmir's first crias were born in 2012 and were an eye-catching bunch, with an average micron of 14.4 and an average SD of 3.1. Thier fleeces were finely crimped, with high curvatures relative to their fineness and excellent staple length as well -- that hard-to-find combination that derives from Nautilus.

Kashmir is a restricted sire - please contact us regarding availability."

Little Carmela

Huacaya, Female, Proven, Light Fawn
ARI# 32431360 | DOB: 6/15/2013
We bought this gorgeous female from Lynn Edens back at the 2014 Amber Autumn Auction auction and haven't looked back since! She produces produced only the best quality, seed stock, animals we carry at Red Granite Ranch.

We love the fineness, excellent uniformity, and super high frequency crimp style in the fleece of this lovely fawn female. And she carries it on a beautifully proportioned, well-sized frame. Best of all, this daughter of Lancaster's Highland Chieftain and granddaughter of ...

Description

Red Granites Cricket is a stunning young herdsire prospect. He is exhibiting an outstanding level of fineness, coupled with excellent density as well as uniformity across his frame and well into his extremitites. He is showing a advanced fleece with a high frequency crimp style with soft handle and superb brightness. These fantastic traits all stand on a large, correct and true to type frame.

Cricket did not come about by pure chance or luck. His sire, Accoyo America Kashmir, is a five-time champion, and multiple judges' choice winner and a PCA Hemingway-Accoyo Nautilus son. He is a leading stud at Little Creek Farm/Snowmass Alpacas and is consistent in producing top quality seed stock animals. His average micron number within his 2012 cria crop was 14.4 with an average SD of 3.1, THATS AMAZING! When pairing Kashmir with Little Carmela a Lancaster's Highland Chieftain daughter, we only expected the best. Little Carmela is a female that we consider to be one of the best producing females around. She exhibits a incredible fineness, and definitely has the ability to pass this trait on to her crias, along with an advanced fleece style, density, trueness to type, brightness and a great ability to produce color. Her medium fawn daughter; Red Granites Cinnamon by Val D Lsere (twelve-time champion, four-time judges' choice winner) sold for an incredible $40,000 to a Belgium breeder back in 2020 at the Amber Autumn Auction, she was the second highest seller overall and was the highest selling female of the auction. From this we can see that Cricket always had the potential to be an elite animal, but he has far exceeded the expectations.

His first cria are nothing short but fantastic!

He has many more breedings for next year as we have now fully seen his potential as a herdsire. He is completely unrelated to any of our animals - therefor we will be covering him on our Sizzy, Val D Lsere, Creed, and Bad Boy lines. Contact us to sceduale a breeding!
