Description

Inara Serra means a 'ray of light seen from above', or 'heaven sent'. She has the potential to be that for a dark / grey program, with a pedigree filled with famous black & grey / roan champions on her sire's side and 4 generations of modern grey (roan) on her dam's side. Inara is showing white fibers at her neck, so her grey heritage is shining through, and she very easily may roan out as well as produce grey.

Her genotype test results report she is 'EE aa' so she has the ability to throw dark / black!

Inara is the progeny with a lineage of modern grey (roan): Her dam, Serenity, is a modern rose (roan) grey out of a line of modern rose (roan) grey dams, her dam Bliss, who is out of Pearl, out of Jetta, who was registered as dark brown as 'back then' when modern grey (now known as a roan grey) was not a registerable color. Inara's sire is our co-owned LibertyAlpaca's Magistrate, a modern dark rose (roan) grey son out of Graysea and therefore grandson of Crystal's Spartan (a male that is known to produce quality roan). Peppered among those modern rose greys are classic greys and blacks... Serenity is sired by our multiple champion Smokejumper who was out of our champion grey dam Frosted Red Rose, and she had produce nothing by classic greys other than Jumper. Magistrate (or "Judge" as he is nick-named) is sired by Irish Meadow's Carbon Copy. Both Carbon Copy, and his sire Avalon's Jacob Black have produced grey offspring as well as notable blacks. Graysea is herself a champion modern rose (roan) grey with additional champion offspring in solid colors.

Inara is very fine with very good uniformity in ratio and across her blanket, with a good shine and staple. Her handle is deliciously creamy, like liquid chocolate, to the touch. Her density is moderate but her fine fiber and delicate low amplitude frequency crimp contributes to less perceived density.

Inara has been bred to our Axios who has been proven several times to produce black and roan! The Axios crias have been stellar so this will be a beautiful cria!

Her purchase before July '25 includes her bred to Axios with a non-transferrable 2025 breeding to our new roan herdsire, APP Phalse Step. At July, she will come off our sales list and go on maternity watch.
