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!

National Velvet "Lizzy" is a true black silky soft female with a short face, broad muzzle and fuzzy ears. She has excellent bone substance and is a fantastic and protective mother. She has a perfect bite with dark eyes. Her sire is none other than Neversummer's US Steel 3 time Futurity Herdsire of the year for the Small Breeder Division and proven producer of beautiful grey color champions.

This handsome young male is out of Granite Bay National Velvet (Lizzy). Lizzy is a stunning true black female with solid fiber stats and lovely curb appeal. For over six years, since her 2015 yearling histogram, Lizzy's fiber stats are relatively unchanged., Her most recent histogram (2021) is as follows: AFD 22.1, SD 4.8, %>30 5.2 (Age 7 yrs). Her sire is none other than Neversummer's US Steel 3 time Futurity Herdsire of the Year for the Small Breeder Division and proven producer of beautiful grey color champions.
Midnight Desire's sire is the highly expressive and wildly spotted harlequin appaloosa herdsire Apache Gentleman. This line carries legendary appaloosa / harlequin genetics on both sides of the pedigree. These exciting genetics are in high demand and several of Midnight Desire's siblings have been exported to Europe.
Midnight Desire is a solid youngster-- straight legs, lovely head style and a bright, fine true black fleece. For those looking to breed for black, grey and even harlequin appaloosa-- this boy could do any or all three. Midnight Desire's harlequin appaloosa sire throws appaloosas and harlequins >80 percent of the time. Because Midnight Desire falls into that 20 percent... no visible spotted category, he is being offered at a greatly reduced price for these genetics.
Midnight Desire is currently in Colorado with his dam, Lizzy. She is being breed to 3X Champion, appaloosa herdsire-- Alchesay-- an Apache son ;-) ! MIdnight Desire can be purchased now, but cannot depart to a new home until he is completely weaned ~ September 2022. For potential mid-west and east coast buyers, plan now to save on transport before Midnight Desire returns to California in the Fall.
