Snowmass Ambrosian Sky   

Beige, 1065985, 1/8 Chilean, 7/8 Peruvian

Snowmass Ambrosian Sky was one of Snowmass Alpaca's reserve Snowmass Invincible daughters, who also brings in the Royal Vicuna line stemming from 6Peruvian Cambria. They selected this gorgeous line of alpacas from many in Peru specifically to breed for Royal fine micron and high curvature; the vicuna equivalent in advanced fleeces for Royal grade textiles. This very line was the golden key to do just this for thier herd.
You can see the results in Ambrosian Sky's yearly histograms which show low AFD and very high sustained curvature. Her cria remarkably have all been the most exceptional fleeced and upstanding cria from this line. Even though her Dam line is colored the strength of her paternal lineage, the famous Maree "LOVE" line, (Dam of her sire, Snowmass Invincible and brother to Snowmass Quechua) have been the dominating element in her production.

Her first son, Snowmass Royal Vision, was sold to a European Syndicate and is leading white herdsire for this most astute

His Dam, Love N Perfection, is a rare direct daughter of Snowmass Maree Love, and his sire is Snowmass ROYAL Challanger.
Royal Trademark's genetics will undoubtedly create superior quality fawns and colors.

Trademark is a name Snowmass saved for a male that could embody their ideals as breeders. This guy is the one. They have been hiding him in so called "padded stalls" to ensure his health and vigor until he begins sowing his seed. With the loss of Maree Love he became that much more important to us no matter how few unrelated females we had to breed to him.

The fact remains he is too closely related to their best breeding females.
Snowmass thought about leasing him, too risky. They have also considered opening up outside breedings, however as a larger operation they are limited with space, and are very guarded knowing the risks that comes with bringing in outside animals.
