The moment Greg Mecklem first showed us Marco Polo's fleece we were bedazzled by the possibilities. Marco is a product of Pacific Crest's two top fleece lines, Microsoft and Sicuani (dam of Nautilus, Sequin, and Sequoia). Greg calls Marco's fleece "elite elite." Phil Mizrahie said "This fleece isn't excellent. It's phenomenal!" And Ian Watt, former President of the Australian Alpaca Association, said "This fleece is as good as Drambuie's, the best stud Australia ever had." This is high praise from some very high-power, world class breeders. The judges have agreed with their appraisal. Marco's fleece won first place in the AOBA fleece show in both 2003 and 2004. Not only that, in 2004 he won Reserve Champion fleece at AOBA over hundreds of white fleeces. Plus, in the same show Rod Dakan of Royal Fiber Spinnery awarded him the Mill's Choice Award for the best fleece for processing, over almost 1000 other entries. The same fleece also won first place at the Midwinter Nationals in Atlanta, 2005. And in 2006, at five years of age, he topped all the competition in fleece points at the AFCNA National. He's throwing that fleece as well. Time after time Marco produces winning fleece quality (see his 3 champs and 6 blue ribbon offspring on his AN herdsire listing). And get this--21 out of 31 offspring are female! We now have seven Marco Polo daughters in our production line (and have sold several others in the 28-30K price range), so we are making him available to another farm looking for the absolute best in fleece genetics. Marco Polo has been a great investment for us. Sales of offspring and breeding fees have repaid us several times over.
Marco Polo is co-owned with Accoyo America/Pacific Crest Alpacas, but we have had uninterrupted possession and use of him since we acquired him seven years ago, and we are entitled to keep all the breeding fees. That arrangement will no doubt continue for whichever farm acquires our share of Marco Polo.
Dam:
Hummingherd's Kiva
| AOA# 850943 | True Black
|
It's not often you find a true black show-winning female available for sale. Kiva is a very pretty, delightful animal with perfect conformation and soft, crimpy fleece. She won first place at the Southwest Regional in March 2005 in a class of seven yearling females. She comes from some of the top color lines in the west, Danko on the sire's side and Macintosh on the dam's. Her first cria Primavera, is a very pretty, soft and crimpy dark fawn Marco Polo daughter. We've bred Kiva back to PC Running Late, who looks to be one of the top fawn males in the country, if his offspring to date are any indication. Running Late's breedings are restricted, so Kiva represents a rare opportunity to acquire these genetics for your herd.
Service Sire:
Gem State's Bolero
| AOA# 32125467 | White
Bolero is the real deal! He has a super bright fleece and exhibits fantastic characteristics in fineness, density, and crimp.
Bolero's dam is an Archangel daughter (Snowmass Legacy Line) that at 5yrs of age still had an AFD 20.6, CV 19.7 and %30-2.3. His sire, Snowmass Inspiration (Peruvian Snowmaster and Snowmass Perfection Line), was sporting an AFD 23.2, CV 21.5 at 6yrs of age. Bolero got the best of both parents. His fleece is soft with a very nice zipper crimp. Just look at his histograms and you'll see he is one fine fellow!
Bolero's 2014 fleece remained amazing in year 3! Still super fine, with beautiful character and brightness. The judges agreed as Bolero came home with a blue and RC at IAO! In 2016, at 5 years of age he shows unbelievable stats including a 54.5 curve! If you want to add character to your herd's fleece, Bolero is your guy! Every single one of his offspring have had a curve over 50, which is why he is in the top 1% EPD for that category.
Bolero's crias have all exhibited his fineness and crimp. Bolero was never taken to a show due to scheduling conflicts during his show days, and it is an absolute shame! We just got the fiber results back on one of Bolero's boys from last year and the stats are impeccable: 14.6 3.4 23.1 0.4. Bolero's fleece is so bright and continues to reproduce those qualities in his offspring! We have chosen to focus on color, which is the only reason we are offering Bolero at this price!
Bolero's EPD results are worth taking an extra look at. He recently had a daughter sell at auction for a very pretty penny and every one of his cria's have demonstrated high character fleeces. If you want bright, fine and crimpy, you want Bolero!
Bolero had his first breeding with a dam of another color, a spotted gray girl. He produced color! The cria had a white neck with a fawn blanket. She is gorgeous and has Bolero's characteristic crimp and shine. Absolutley beautiful!
Description
Primavera is a proven, champion producing mama. She has retained fineness in her fleece well beyond maturity. Take a look at her fiber metrics and you can't help but be impressed with the consistency. You'll also notice her ranking in the EPD program for fineness. She is outstanding!
Prima's sire, Microsoft Accoyo Marco Polo, has the fiber genetics that make her a sure foundation female. Her dam's side of her certificate is also impressive with Danko genetics prevalent.
Not only does she have fantastic fiber characteristics and fabulous genetics, Prima also has exceptional mothering instincts. Her crias are always hearty and healthy. "Prima" has produced top of the line cria at every birth.
Her newest little girl is beautiful! Prima just keeps on producing winners year after year. A light fawn with soft, crimpy, full fleece. Feel the fluff!
