BESTie is out of Snowmass Andean Midnight, Sire of 26x Champ, ESTATES STRADIVARIUS.
Snowmass Andean Midnight is "Finess in Black".
Elite Ultra-Fine Blacks are hard to find! However, like many of Snowmass studs, Andean Midnight has retained his Fineness, Brightness, and Handle with age! Andean Midnight is a beautiful, compact True Black "Silky Soft" stud with an outstanding Royal Pedigree for fineness and should retain his fineness for years to come. Those who need to add proven genetics of fineness, brightness and handle will appreciate the Royal Blacks from Snowmass! He is one of their best! His fiber is incredibly soft and shiny with a silky look and feel. It has a uniform low amplitude high frequency style of crimp. You have to see it to believe it. His grandsire is none other than Andean Bronze, the sire of Royal Bronze – from Snowmass’ vicuna type alpacas who retain fineness under 20 microns after reaching maturity. Andean Midnight has 140 offspring as of 2023!
DESTie’s dam, Sunny Peruvian Beauty is just beautiful and mellow. She has good conformation with fantastic fleece stats. Her fleece has long staple length, bright with nice crimp style. Beauty is the last one of Snowmaster’s Royal Extreme’s 96 offspring. EXTREME has all the attributes of the ACCOYO style. On top of having all the highly desireable fleece architecture but also a long staple length and incredible density. He is full peruvian, 1/2 Accoyo and 1/2 Anatacalla (even better than the accoyo region according to Julie Skinner of Snowmass). Exreme is a true gentleman not only with his "girls" but also for his handler and he is extremely fertile. His regal presence can be seen in this pasture. His offsprings have got 14 champions and 49 blue ribbons so far.
EXTREME is the son of SNOWMASTER who was sold to a farm in Australia for $250,000 and then imported back to Peru because of his incredible genetics. There are very few male offspring in this country to carry on his incredible genetics. Royal Extreme is one of them.
She is the perfect blend of powerhouse genetics.
She displays a square nicely balanced frame, sturdy substance of bone, full leg coverage, high frequency bright very long stapled soft handling fleece with beautiful fineness and uniformity well into her extremities.
Perhaps one of the sweetest alpacas in our herd is BESTie.
