Description

Red Granites Bad Boy is a very unique male, his special features just go on and on, his most recognizable trait is his incredible head style. His sire, Snowmass Premonition, also had this head style which comes from Snowmass Accoyocusani. Premonition comes from the very well known Snowmass Sub-Zero line creating the LOW CV & LOW SD vaules with incredible head types that we all want in our programs. One of Bad Boy's other exceptional traits is his low micron and CV vaules which are both staying under 20 for most of his current lifetime, this is what we are striving for on ELITE Herdsires. The best part about this is he can easily cover color considering his lineage, making this a perfect opportunity to improve our color-side of the herd and bring in all these vaules into them, creating some of the BEST colored animals we can offer with elite fiber statistics to back them up.

Snowmass Matrix Breckenridge, his dam, sits with an incomparable amount of WORLD-CLASSIC genetics. She is sired by the ever great -- Snowmass Matrix and by one of Snowmass Alpacas former best production females before releasing her at an annual auction who of which we own, Snowmass Cashmina a Snowmass XXXtreme daughter and Peruvian Hemingway granddaughter via dam. If you are not familiar with Cashmina try her daughter Snowmass Cashmina Gold the dam to: Snowmass Smokin (Former lead dark sire at Snowmass & Quechua Enterprises), Snowmass Kahuna Cashmina (2X Futurity Champion), or Snowmass Celestial XX the dam to Snowmass Divine Legacy XX. So, Matrix Breckenridge is lined up with PROVEN breeding success, and her line has created a few of the best colored animals Snowmass Alpacas has produced. So when we combined the Snowmass Sub-Zero line with Snowmass Matrix and Snowmass XXXtreme we got a LOW CV, LOW SD, HIGH CURV, INCREDIBLY BRIGHT AND FINE, future herdsire, and one of which who can improve both light and dark programs.
