Description

Thank you to Diane Sheesley of Rainbow Mountain Alpacas for being a co-owner of this spectacular appy male! Fusion is now residing and standing stud at her farm in Punxsutawney, PA.

We were excited to purchase this beautiful male from the well-respected grey suri breeding program at Shasta Springs Alpacas. Fusion is definitely "eye candy", and when you see him you will want to breed to him, too. He has a gentle nature, strong solid conformation, and exquisite appaloosa coloring. He continues to get darker and darker in coloration with each shearing like his sire, who is now a dark grey in color. He is a large, weighing in at 185 lbs. He was shorn at 1 year old, and his 1st fleece weighed 6 lbs. with a 3.4 lb blanket, and was 9" in length. It has been shown and won Reserve Champion Grey Suris at the 2012 Suri Network All Suri Fleece Show, the largest suri fleece show in the world! Diana Timmerman, AOA Fleece Judge for the Suri Network, commented that his "Fleece is showing good luster and softness for a grey."

While greys and appaloosas/harlequins are not renowned for their fleece characteristics, Fusion placed 2nd in the 2019 MAPACA Jubilee Halter Show behind WLK Electrofyre for the Get of Sire Production Class. He also placed 4th in the 2017 AOA National Fleece Show Get of Sire Production Class for the stellar results of his offspring. It is rare for a grey/appaloosa to place high in this class!

Fusion had 8 crias born in 2016, producing 4 males and 4 females, producing 75% appaloosas from a variety of color dams! Check out his crias: Kazmere (m, appy), JackKnife (m, appy), Harley Quinn (m, harlequin), Vanity (f, appy), Prismatic (f, appy), Quinn (m, solid color), Tootsie Pop (f, solid color), and Ebony's cria (f, appy). WRSR Zanzibar by Fusion, his latest 2022 appy cria is a beautiful harlequin appy male.

Fusion has had 25 crias to date as of 5/9/25, with 20 of them showing appy phenotype. He has produced appaloosas/harlequins from W, BGMB, DB, all silver or rose greys, and pinto dams. His 20% of crias not showing the appy phenotype were 2 WH from pinto dams, 2 MB from a TB and DRG dams, and 1 BG from a pinto dam.

Recommendation: Breed Fusion to any color dam except TB, BB, or pinto to optimize your odds for an appy cria.

Fusion is now co-owned by Diane Sheesley at Rainbow Mountain Farms in Punxatawney, PA where he is standing stud. Fusion appears to be sensitive to very hot weather when his fertility declines. He his a big, healthy boy, but needs to breed in cooler weather.
