Huacaya, Yearling Male, Unproven | Dark Fawn

AOA# 36283187 D.O.B. 6/11/2024 (1 yr)

Sire:

Majestic's Armani

| AOA# 35415596 | Beige |

We had been looking for a couple years for a male with qualities to bump up our herd. We were focusing on light fawn, when this beige guy presented himself we just had the feeling we might not get an opportunity like this again. Armani is actually the offspring of two darker fawn parents. We bought this young male before even seeing him in person and before he entered the ring and won a first place at the prestigious Futurity show.

Ironically we already have an alpaca named Armani - our original Armani was from Great Lakes Ranch and is on the suri side of our herdsire line up. This guy is on the huacaya side coming from the prestigious Majestic Meadow's breeding program. We still haven't come up with a suitable nickname for him. A fun fact voice recognition spells "Our money" instead of Armani. Any how our younger, crimpy Armani has some very impressive genetics to us.

Armani's sire, Jeremiah's Peruvian Jumanji, has such an impressive show history with over a dozen championships, numerous judges choice awards and impressively similar to his sire, Get of sire of the Year, multiple times! Armani's dam CCNF Arusha is a Dreadnought daughter from Cas-Cad-Nac farm who was purchased at the futurity auction. Dreadnought has an extremely impressive show record with numerous championships at prestigious shows. Arusha is an example of Elixir/Matrix Majesty crosses. Her dam was a daughter of their futurity champion Tanzania. An impressive line of futurity champions with genetics from top breeders on the other side of the coast from us.

Armani was first entered in the prestigious Futurity show in Kansas City, MO and received a 1st place. Faye of Majestic Meadows says she was proud of his first in his class knowing he was very young. He received a 4th at GWAS and RMA. Then Fall show he received a 1st place in halter where Judge exclaimed "nice amplitude". He received a respectful 2nd place in walking fleece. We showed him fall 2022 he received a 3rd place in halter with all nice comments on conformation and fleece -others placing above were slightly finer. We anticipated this considering Armani comes from darker colors not to mention competition in light huacayas is astounding. He got a very respectful 2nd of 4 in walking fleece whereas the first place championed.

His histogram looks like it should be a sweet spot for our herd at just under 21 micron and a 4.1 SD. His yarn is breathtaking and nearly rivals our champion suri in brightness.

We have noticed a tremendous jump in fleece style and density in his crias. Let us know if you are interested in more information on Majestic's Armani.

Huacaya, Open (Female), Proven, Dark Fawn

ARI# 36016662 | DOB: 6/28/2019

This girl is still simply too cute for words! Born from a smaller mom & dad that have amazing fiber and coverage, we didn't expect to add much in size but this was a first birth for her mom. She is certainly a standout in the pasture and her fleece looks & feels fabulous and just keeps coming in. We don't mind if she takes her time growing. Though it would have been nice if we were able to attend shows with her.

Zendaya's name means, to "give Thanks". For whatever reason the system had a...

We are quite happy with this guy because he is from one our favorite fawn dams (no favorite's allowed) Zendaya of Zurich. Suffice to say his granddam Zurich is an all-time favorite. Her dark grey coloring and she has had the cutest and best fleeced animals for us. Rory is "our" only offspring sired by Majestic Armani.

His first shear was quite impressive. We went ahead to see if his histogram matched up with what we saw. At 17.3 AFD and 4.2 SD we think he has some good potential.

We went ahead and showed him as a yearling. Even though he did not place high, he held his own in the judges comments among some of the big breeders. . The judges commented a little more growing up time. From what we have seen, the Majestic's Armani from Jumanji line seem to bloom just a little bit later. He had commendable fleece score of 71/80 with a 19.5 of 20 in fineness & handle and well above average uniformity, 4 of 5 of density and 8.5 brightness.

We are pleased with these attributes and decided to show him again following spring. He only got a 5th in halter and the judge said placing was due to his longer face, should I mention I almost cried when shearers sheared his face clean because he really did have that full-face coverage as you can see in our shearing photo of him. However, the 2nd show the judge kept going back and forth between the one she placed first among some of the industry greats so we were super excited about receiving a 2nd. His walking fleece score card shows 4 of 5 density 8.5 brightness and 18 of 20 fineness despite the wind mud etc. These are traits we have been aiming to improve in our huacayas so we are grateful we received this feedback.
