CONGRATULATIONS to Roy Davis of R & K's Alpaca farm on the purchase of Apache Gentleman. Apache will be moving to their farm in Iowa in June 2022. Apache will be greatly missed at Rare Gem Alpacas but he leaves behind a number of lovely offspring to grace our herd for years to come! * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * Oh, my oh my! Apache is a proven herdsire with 28 cria on the ground! Sometimes words just aren't enough. If you are looking for an appaloosa harlequin stud to cover your girls and create something truly unique, look no further. This boy has it all! Apache's pedigree is packed (on both sides) with outstanding appaloosas and harlequins. It is highly probable that Apache is homozygous meaning you do not have to breed him to another harlequin or appaloosa to get a good chance of producing an appaloosa / harlequin offspring. A definite plus for those breeding for spots. With 28 offspring now sired by Apache, we have a pretty good picture of his expressivity. Of the 28 offspring on the ground (December 2021), 27 of the dams were solid colored (not appaloosa or harlequin). All but 2 of the 27 offspring are either classic appaloosa or harlequin. That is an expression rate of 93%! Ironically, the one appaloosa female that Apache was bred to threw a solid. Apache is as sure of a bet as you can get when looking for these uniquely colored / patterned alpacas. Apache's sire, Windspun WSA Patriotic Gentleman, is an appaloosa as well. He's a blue ribbon winning male that sports a beautiful fleece and strong confirmation. Patriotic Gentleman's sire is the multi-champion Hobby Horse Farm Great Expecations making his grandsire the well-known SA Peruvian Black Epic. Apache's dam, Excelsior's High Voltage Tazer, has an equally impressive background. She's the harlequin daughter of two very well-known appaloosas - NWA/Hearsum Paulo and Cookies and Cream. In May 2021, Apache's appaloosa offspring took 2nd Place - Get of Sire at CABA. UPDATE: For the first time ever, this highly expressive stud will be made available Summer of 2022. We work with international buyers and can guide you through the process. If interested, please don't wait... contact us now!

10/17/18 - Faith throws a handsome appaloosa cria. Faith likes to throw fully baked cria in record time. This little guy was born 15 lbs. at 323 days gestation. This makes 3 cria for Faith in 2 years!! And all three are harlequin / appaloosas. Faith has now proven that even though she has no appaloosa-harlequin gene carriers in her pedigree, when bred to the right boy... she can reliably produce exactly what is hoped for! As tempting as it was to breed Faith to Taupie again (the sire of the first two cria), new to the team XXXtreme Spots was selected for Faith's third pairing. Spots' appy gene comes from NGG Lional-- a known appy carrier that has been well-proven in Canada but is rather rare in the United States. What is so special about Spots from an appy breeder perspective is that he carries elite-fleeced heavy hitter lines in his pedigree such as Legacy, El Nino, and XXXtreme (out of Hemingway) ALONG WITH the expressed appy gene! These elite-fleeced alpacas are known for their lasting-fineness and density. Norm Evan's skin biopsy stats are available on Spots' page. Not only does Spots sport a sweet, easy-to-handle disposition... his fleece is exactly what you would expect from such a stellar pedigree. He is super-dense and fine and FULL of crimp! Expect lasting fineness from this guy-- his sire, Sai-Hoji, was 21 micron at 11 years old! 9/22/17 - Faith throws a beautiful little harlequin female. Born at just 311 days gestation, she weighed in at 13 lbs. Faith's maternal instinct is strong and milk production is robust. At just 7 weeks of age, this 13 pound girl weighed in at 38 pounds AND it was already apparent that her fleece was characteristic of traits we hope for. This young girl's first fleece was entered in 3 shows in 2018 (where she showed as rose grey) and she held her own in competitive classes including the AOA National Fleece Show. 9/25/16 - Faith delivered her first cria (at just 310 days gestation!)-- a beautiful uniquely colored harlequin - appaloosa girl sired by Vintage Cashmere U-Taupe-ia. The result of this pairing is a true Rare Gem named Appletini! I loved the result of this pairing so much, that on 10/31/16, I repeated the breeding. Faith "took" on that first breeding and just 10.5 months later, delivered another girl! ... a beautiful "classic" appaloosa named "SPOTlight". So talk about productive... two beautiful harlequin girls and one handsome appaloosa boy... in less than two years-- and only bred one time each pregnancy! Faith has earned herself the title of the highest performing production dam on the ranch. :-) Faith is a super sweet girl. She has nice genetics in her lineage—Quijote, Danko and Lanark’s Silver Charm. Faith was shown three times 2014 / 2015 before starting her breeding career. She placed 2nd each time in competitive classes. Her 5th year (2018) histogram... Faith is still sporting a low 20's AFD, 4.2 SD and a CV of 18.4%. Gotta love this girl!!
