Alpaca Palace's Tank Commander

Huacaya, Herdsire (Male), Proven | Medium Fawn

AOA# 35307341   D.O.B. 10/6/2015 (10 yrs) , 1/2 Peruvian

Sire:
Sunset Hills Farm Andean Gold 
| AOA# 842897  | Medium Fawn  |
Wow! We love this guy. Andean Gold is the offspring of our Multiple Champion Tell Vaccoyo's Secret who is from the well known Victor's Vaccoyo! Andean is of medium build, has a very full fleeced head and shorter muzzle. His fleece is superb with dense, rich fiber that has a fine handle and consistent bold crimp throughout. His coverage is unbelievably complete from head to fetlock. Andean is just a perfect example of an alpaca that has it all, and the judges agree awarding him 13 blue ribbons and 8 banners. In fact he took the first AFCNA fleece award at the 2006 AOBA national show beating out younger and lighter colored fleeces. He also won the color champion at the 2007 Buckeye show at 5 years of age and as a grand finally to his show career he took the brown champion and the judges choice award at the 2011 Buckeye show at almost 9 years of age. Now let talk about production, Andean has also produced cria’s in every color from white to black and everything in between (even grey). He has also produced multiple champions, including 10 time champion Sunset Hills Golden Thunder who was one of the top sellers at the 2011 AOBA national auction. So no matter the color or the background of your Dam, let Andean Gold produce a winner for you.


Dam:
LAAF Paladin's Belledin 
| AOA# 31900782  | White  |
LAAF Paladin's Belledin is one of the first Paladin east coast progeny--and also one of his best. Thank you Mike and Sarah for offering one of your finest foundation females for us to add to enhance our breeding program. Belledin is white but carries alot of color in her background. Perfect conformation, medium bone and sturdy frame. Great coverage, with incredible crimp well into her lower legs. Her crimp is very consistent and is evident without even opening her fleece, extending to the very tip of the fiber. Belledin is very dense. She has taken Reserve Champion twice and in the shows where she placed fourth, both times the judges remarked that any of the top four could have been in first. Belledin's dam, LA Belleza placed at the top of her classes in very competitive Level V shows has maintained one of our best fleeces out of Long Acre Alpaca Farm's foundation females. Belledin's sire, Paladin, is an impressive male with a fantastic genetic background. Paladin has one of the densest fleeces and his crimp curvature is possibly one of several highest ever recorded by fiber analysis.

Bidding Info

Description

When Tank’s massive fleece was opened up, his apparent fawn color revealed grey fibers throughout, identifying him as a Fawn Roan—no surprise once you dig into his pedigree.

Tank is sired by Sunset Hill’s Andean Gold, a producer of both black and grey offspring and a grandson of PPeruvian Victor. His dam, LAAF Paladin’s Belledin, is a PPeruvian Victor great-granddaughter and 5th-generation Hemingway, also carrying black and grey in her background. Despite only being bred to white and light fawn males herself, the genetics are clearly there.

Tank has multiple registered crias on the ground—check out his offspring to see what he’s producing.

As a breeding male, Tank must be housed separately from females & also other males due to normal male behavior and good herd management practices.

Post-shearing, Tank really shines: great bone, square build, and excellent skin quality, noted by shearer Chris Hatch. His visible skin “sand bars” (wrinkles along the back and neck) indicate greater fleece density thanks to increased surface area—a trait breeders value.

Tank is a sweet, well-mannered male who fits in well here, but we’re downsizing and are committed to placing him—or his genetics—into the right program.

Stud service available — your place or ours. Located near Syracuse, NY. Females may be bred via drive-by or boarded.

Genetic Testing: e1e1 a2a3
• 2 dilution genes
