Our family favorite! Grace is a full Peruvian, 1/2 Accoyo foundation female. She has been a consistent producer of show quality breeding stock. When paired with The Portland Kidd, they produced RA Mr Pennsylvania. Mr Pennsylvania is a multiple color champion and multiple ribbon winner himself. Mr PA has also sired many championship offspring. She has also produced the ribbon winners Lacey Lou, Accoyo's Leonardo, Silvercloud Farms Peruvian DeAngelo (championship fiber award winner), and reserve color champion Celestine Ridge's Antoinette.
Grace has an exceptional fleece for an older female and is passing that fineness on to her offspring. See the fleece and fiber awards of her offspring such as Silvercloud Farms Peruvian Deangelo. At 10.5 years of age her micron count is 25.6!
Grace is sired by the full Accoyo Peruvian King. Peruvian King set a new auction record a few years ago when he sold for $140,000. Peruvian King is deceased (a feed incident in 2003)so his
Giacomo was born on Silvercloud Farm with an extraordinary case of "soft rolling skin"! This is a rare occurrence in crias and is a precursor to extreme density of the fleece due to a high frequency of hair follicles per inch. That is certainly the case here. Giacomo's fleece is the densest on our farm and is truly the proverbial "Berber Carpet", yet with a buttery-soft hand. Fleece opens "like a book".
Giacomo's 1st cria, Silvercloud Farm's Katrina's Hope sold for $30,000 at The Eastern Extreme Auction to Magical Farms. His crias to date have gorgeous, popcorny fleeces. Please come see us at the Spring 2007 shows to see Giacomo's cria: Silvercloud Farm's Twinkle, Silvercloud Farm's Ouzo, Silvercloud Farm's Butterfinger and Celestine Ridge's Antoinette who took Reserve Light Female Color Champion 2007 Carolina Alpaca Celebration 2007.
Giacomo is the son of the late great Peruvian Dakotia, a son of the legendary Bueno, from Magical Farms who tragically passed away
* Antoinette is due soon! We will include her breedback, birthing fee and more with this sale, but you have to act soon. Package her with another alpaca and save more.*We didn't know that such fineness and density could be used in the same sentence to describe an alpaca! Antoinette is exhibiting tight bundling of her brilliant white fleece. Her fleece has a buttery soft handle with a very uniform crimp throughout. See her inset fleece picture. Her conformation and bite are excellent. Antoinette has the genetic makeup to be an incredible producer. Her dam, RA Grace, is maintaining her fineness at over 10 years of age. Her sire, Giacomo, is also producing ribbon winning offspring. She was born with extra rolls of skin like her sire Giacomo. This is an indicator of extreme density. Antoinette's pedigree is impeccable, and her genetics are rare. Both Grandsires, Accoyo Peruvian King, and Peruvian Dakotia,are deceased (feed incident in 2003) as well as her great-grandsire Peruvian Caligula. Bueno is also her great-grandsire. 10/06 BVDV PCR Negative.

"Gus" has skin follicle tested to be very dense and is fine and uniform fleeced. Will their pairing bring out the color in their background? Financing is available.
