Meet the new crown prince of CCNF. Show record aside, Elixir is probably the best male alpaca our breeding program has produced in 16 years. Good thing too, as he and his paternal siblings have some mighty big shoes that we're going to be asking them to fill in the coming years. The son of three time Futurity Herdsire of the Year, Snowmass Elite Legend, and our multi-Champion Archangel daughter, CCNF Ascension, Elixir when conceived as a concept on paper was supposed to be good. We just had no idea that the stars were going to align quite as well as they did. The fleece fineness and phenotype of his maternal line combined with the other-worldy density and uniformity he got from his sire are virtually unmatched here.
He is a special, special alpaca, one that has our mouths watering when we consider the breeding pairings for the years ahead. The fact that we feel he can breed both lights and darks (Elixir is a classic dorsal beige) makes some of those upcoming breeding decisions just that much more intriguing.
We are thrilled to announce that as of late July Elixir had settled his first females, with the pregnancies being confirmed via sonogram! Elixir, who will be standing at stud here at CCNF until October 1st before moving back to our partners' farm in Maryland for the fall season, will be offered for outside stud service on a limited basis in 2013 at a cost of $5000/breeding. It is no exaggeration to say that we have been anticipating the coming breeding season for this guy since he was was all of about 3 months old. Now Elixir's time is here and the future looks very exciting!
We are proud to co own Elixir with the Padgett family of A Paca Fun Farm in Dickerson, MD. Please inquire either with us here at CCNF ([email protected] or 802-263-5740) or the Padgetts ([email protected] or 301-349-4111) if you are interested in purchasing a breeding to this stellar young Champion Herdsire!
Description
Isabella Rose is the daughter of the amazing imported foundation female, 4P Isabella, whose other crias include our Herdsire, Snowmass Accoyocusani. It is no wonder that she has produced the quality that she has, from her first cria, Isabella Star, to her latest in 2012 there is little doubt about this female's ability to pass on her genetic lines' amazing traits. Last year Isabella Rose gave birth to a ripping little female, Rosalind, sired by Precocious.
We didn't exactly skimp on Isabella Rose's breeding for 2013 either, as she was bred to Snowmass Elite Legend, the 2012 Futurity Herdsire of the Year and just produced a very nice looking little male, CCNF Thorn's full sibling. For the time being Isabella will be offered with her cria at side AND we have rebred her to her to our Futurity/NAAS/Mapaca Champion Herdsire, CCNF Elixir! Isabella is now confirmed pregnant and due in late August. Our early read on her cria is that, if still here, he will very much be in the conversation when it comes to picking out our juvenile white males for next spring's show rosters.
