    Huacaya, Herdsire (Male), Proven, Medium Fawn, Dark Silver Grey, True Black
    | DOB: 11/15/2021
    It is with great excitement that we introduce this handsome harlequin appaloosa son of Vintage Cashmere U-Taupe-ia and elite-fleeced, Running Late's Peaches and Cream.

    Peaches was purchased in 2019 for her outstanding fiber traits, beautiful phenotype, pedigree and patterned fleece. She does not carry an appaloosa or harlequin in her pedigree, but is an expressed pattern so she was included in the appy/harley program as a potential for throwing just what we want. In 2019, she was paired wit...

    After previously being placed on hold pending completion of a private sale, Myrtle is once again being offered from the Rare Gem foundation program due to unforeseen changes in the buyer’s circumstances.

    Myrtle’s 2025 cria has arrived—and she did not disappoint. Myrtle delivered a gorgeous daughter, Rare Gem Dappled Daphne, a rare reverse Appaloosa and the very first reverse appy born here at Rare Gem Alpacas. Daphne will be retained by Rare Gem Alpacas as an important future foundation fema...

    Description

    We are delighted to welcome Rare Gem Hazel Nut, a standout addition to our herd and the very first offspring of our Harlequin Appaloosa herdsire, Rare Gem Camouflage, and our exceptional female, H2R Myrtle. Hazel Nut wasted no time making an impression—she was up and nursing within 10 minutes, a testament to her strength and vigor.

    Hazel Nut is the result of a carefully planned pairing, and we couldn’t be more thrilled with the outcome. Myrtle, bred by Happy Hounds Ranch—renowned for producing elite alpacas—has proven to be an outstanding addition to our program. This being Myrtle’s first cria, we are overjoyed with the results and grateful to Happy Hounds Ranch for the opportunity to bring Myrtle into our herd.

    At first glance, Hazel Nut appeared to be a dark fawn or light brown, but as the days have passed, her coloring has begun to reveal its true complexity. Grey is emerging on her topknot and down the back of her neck, with distinct roaning on all four legs. Her unique coloration, combined with her pedigree, strongly suggests grey or roan genotype—a feature we look forward to confirming through testing.

    Hazel Nut is a lovely, strong cria with a striking presence. Her lineage is a blend of excellence, and we are excited to see how she develops. With her unique coloring and promising genetics, Hazel Nut is one to watch as she grows into her potential.

    Stay tuned for updates on Hazel Nut’s progress and genotype results—we are confident she will be a shining star in our breeding program!
