    Sweet Pines Azera

    Huacaya, Female, Proven | Medium Brown

    AOA# 31502566   D.O.B. 8/15/2008, 3/4 Peruvian, 1/4 Chilean

    Sire:
    Aussie Hudson Hawk 
      | true black  |
    a champion herdsire from an esteemed breeding program

    Dam:
    Sweet Pines Catalina  
    | AOA# 30457157  | Medium Brown  |
    Catalina has produced phenomenal offspring, including National Brown Color Champion, Sweet Pines Torino!

    Catalina's fleece is an exquisite medium brown with a SOFT handle and tight, consistent crimp. She has straight conformation and a perfect bite. She is one of those friendly, confident alpacas that catches your attention right away. And then when you start looking at her pedigree, you know you can't go wrong...especially if you are breeding for superior QUALITY COLOR.

    Catalina is out of ELDORADO, a very studly charcoal grey. ElDorado is out of the amazing 4Peruvian LEGACY along with a plethora of black and grey on his dam's side. Catalina's dam is our very own champion Makella. And the genetics on her side are just as impressive - Peruvian Accolade, Peruvian Augusto, Peruvian El Moustachio, & Peruvian Don Julio.

    Catalina's first cria, Azera, is spectacular. She won our hearts along with two well-earned ribbons (2nd at AFCNA Fleece Show & 3rd at Alpaca Affaire composite). Her dark chocolate brown fleece is soft & crimpy with excellent character.

    But Catalina's claim to fame is her son, Sweet Pines Torino, a NATIONAL COLOR CHAMPION for his fleece at AOBA Nationals 2011. He has also earned 3 RESERVE CHAMPIONS in both halter and fleece. His 1st histogram stats are amazing: AFD 15.7, SD 2.9, CV 18.4, %>30 0.5.

    A half price breeding is available to any of our unrelated studs (e.g. Snowmass XXXtreme Flare) or those of Alpaca Harmony, LLC (e.g. Spanish Peaks Banderas (Torino's sire) OR champion black herdsire Crescent Moon's Daytona).

    We will provide 4 months free board upon purchase if necessary. Transport and purchase exam are the responsibility of the buyer.

    Thank you for considering Catalina, a wonderful mother producing exceptional offspring.

    Description

    Azera is listed for reference only as she passed in winter of 2023. She had a really lovely personality. Below is her history and description as a breeder.

    If you are looking for depth in color, fantastic fleece characteristics, a solid conformation, and a winning personality, Azera will win your heart. We are thrilled with the quality of Azera's offspring - very little guard hair, incredible brightness, length, and lasting fineness, and such great bone substance with very attractive conformation. Plus Azera has passed on her inquisitive, pleasant personality. She is a consistent quality producer.

    Genetics: Azera is the daughter of Aussie Hudson Hawk, a true black champion with phenomenal fleece, and Sweet Pines Catalina, an award winner and producer of champions. Her grandsires are Show Me the Money and HVLA Legacy's Eldorado (a charcoal grey 4Peruvian Legacy son).

    Fleece: Azera's fleece is a lovely brown. She has won top awards, including 2nd place at the AFCNA Continental Fleece Show (level 4).

    Conformation: Solid, strong bone, straight legs, great bite, and balance.

    Azera's half brother is our own Sweet Pines Torino, 3x Reserve CHAMPION, GWAS Color Champion, and AOBA Nationals CHAMPION.

    Azera was bred to our daughter's new jet black herdsire, multi-champion Crescent Moon's Daytona, for a stunning female cria in 2016, Sweet Pines' Manzanita. Please check Daytona out on Brandy's website, alpacaharmony.com. Manzanita is wonderfully conformed with Azera's charming personality and an incredibly fine fleece. She is almost a spitting image of Azera's 2011 son, Eclipse.

    Azera now has a gorgeous bay black son out of Daytona's Color Champion son, Nocino. Born on 7/1/2021 without assistance and Azera is yet again a fantastic mother!
