After winning the white championship at every show he entered in 2013, Kingfish demonstrated his enduring fleece qualities with a second, back to back championship at the AOA National Show in 2014. A multiple-time Judges’ Choice winner and phenotypic powerhouse, Accoyo America Kingfish impressed the judges
with his solid conformation and fine, exquisitely structured fleece with remarkable brightness and hand. They noted with approval how his blanket fleece extended uniformly down and across his belly and into his brisket with a consistent expression of crimp. Kingfish is out of Accoyo America Karma, an outstanding Ulysses daughter that ranks among our very top production dams and boasts an 18 micron fleece in middle age. Kingfish’s sire is none other than the Futurity and AOBA champion white male, Accoyo America Shogun, a Legacy son from a Hemingway/Sicuani dam. We consider this fusion of genetics to be the next step in our breeding program.
Dam:
LCFA LIKE A RAINBOW

At 13.8 microns Rainbow was one of the finest crias Little Creek Alpaca Farm produced in 2013. A Snowmass Elite Legend daughter and maternal sister to the sire TGF Subconscious Hero, Rainbow has a beautiful phenotype and exquisitely soft handling fleece with a moderate frequency crimp style, extreme brightness, and outstanding length. Rainbow is a fading beige animal with a few brown spots, and offers the potential to add the elite fineness of her white pedigree to colored offspring. We love the look of this female too – correct and square with good bone and a pretty head, she has a lovely presence that makes her a standout in the field.
Rainbow is co- owned with our friends at Faraway Farm Alpacas.
SOLD: Congratulations to Lynn Eden of Little Creek Alpacas for purchasing Rainbow back. We are happy she will be going back to a great breeding program.

Description
This young male will be going to work in our herd this Spring (2021)! He has exactly the genetics we were looking for! His fiber has developed into a very fine, consistent and bright fleece with excellent crimp and staple length. And he has fleece stats to back it up, as well as very strong EPDs from his amazing parents.
Ice Man is the produce of Elite Legend daughter, Like a Rainbow and the legendary Little Creek herdsire, Accoyo America Kingfish. It doesn't get much better than that. He's quite lovely and we expect him to mature into a wonderful herdsire.
While he's placed lower than we'd like in the shows, don't underestimate this incredibly nice male! He's standing with some amazing future herdsires, and on more than one occasion, the judge has mentioned how close these males are, with all of them having elite fleeces and the placings dependent on very fine points.
We are now accepting breeding agreements for Spring 2021 with only $150 deposit. Don't miss this $650 introductory fee -- it'll be more than worth it! Intro Breeding Fee includes up to 60 days agistment and only $3/day thereafter. Book your breeding now!
