Service Sire: Rare Gem Zagato's Cray-Z

Handsome Zagato Son!

Rare Gem Zagato's Cray-Z

Huacaya Herdsire (Male) Light Fawn, Medium Fawn

AOA# 36087600 DOB: 10/24/20203 yrs
This young male is an up and comer in the Rare Gem breeding program. We purchased his dam from the Alpaca Palace auction in Pennsylvania in 2019 when Cras-Z was "cooking in the oven". When born, Cras-Z had the bundles of curls and the "look" we get excited about. He has grown into a handsome body double of his daddy, Sunset Hills Zagato. Zagato was the 2019 Futurity Herdsire of the Year (dark) and has a proven track record of throwing the coloration of the dam while stamping the offspring with h ...

Details
Advanced fleece, perfect conformation and phenotype, clean apron and lower carriage, short muzzle with pleasing head style, perfect bite and a sweet disposition. Oh, and a stellar pedigree!

Josie is a harlequin appaloosa daughter of Apache Gentleman. Apache's pedigree is packed with appaloosas-- top and bottom. He is the prepotent harlequin herdsire in the United States with 42 register offspring of which the majority are either harlequin, leopard or classic appaloosa. Josie is the most recent of his Champion offspring to show up in the show ring.

Josie's dam, Derwydd Manchu's Suyana, brings elite fleece and a classy phenotype to the pairing. Suyana is 5/8 Accoyo and a 5-time banner winner. Suyana's sire, Derwydd El Nino's Accoyo Manchu is a full Accoyo and 8-time champion. Josie is rockin' the pattern and elite-fleeced genetics proven to produce dense, uniform, fine fleeces.

UPDATE: Josie made her in ring show debut at the dual California shows October 2023. She color checked and showed as rose grey in both shows taking 1st place in her classes and going on to be award Grey Color Champion at the Gold Country Gathering Show and Reserve Grey Color Champion at the California Classic the following day. We are extremely honored to have the opportunity to show Josie and have a harlequin appaloosa competitively representing the grey color group.

Now that we are home from the shows and breeding season is on the horizon, we look to select a very special herdsire for Josie's maiden breeding. One top contender for the task is Rare Gem Zagato's Cras-Z. Cras-z has an extremely fine, "clean" fleece and a perfect color genotype for breeding to appaloosas and harlequins. We are very excited about the possibilities of this pairing. Please feel free to visit his page under "Herdsires" and let us know what you think? While Josie is not for sale, her future offspring could be... down the road?! :-)

Josie is proudly co-owned with Stone Pine Farm.
