Fall 2022- Congratulations to Mary Miller of Aspen Alpacas on her purchase of FTAF Privateer. At age 10, Privateer is as handsome as ever and going strong. We are ever so grateful for what he has added to our herd over the years. He has blessed Rare Gem Alpacas and our clients with many amazing champions and foundation offspring. We will miss this sweet dispositioned boy, but happy that he is going to such a great home and program.

Tic Tac is the product of two top producing harlequins from the Kuska herd. She carries legendary appaloosa / harlequin genetics on both sides of her pedigree making it very possible that she is homozygous for the appy / harlequin trait. She has had three offspring-- all out of non-appaloosa / harlequin gene carriers. All three of Tic Tac's offspring have expressed-- one as classic appaloosa and two as lovely harlequin appaloosas.

Tic Tac and Privateer do it again! They have now produced two beautiful harlequins two years in a row. And this is the third appaloosa in row for Tic Tac. All three were out of non-appaloosa gene carrier, solid colored males. It is highly likely with this pedigree and production that dam, Tic Tac, is homozygous for the appaloosa allele(s). Tic Tac's color genotype is Ee a2a3 and sire, FTAF's Privateer, is color genotype ee a2a2. So this pairing was a natural for creating a beautifully expressed appaloosa. As this offspring carries two black alleles-- one from each parent... it is highly likely that she will darken over time as is typically of harlequin appaloosas.
This young girl is big-boned, solid and straight... right from the get-go. Her champion sire, FTAF Privateer, is an elite-fleeced, handsome male known for stamping his beautiful head style and uniform, fine fleece. He is also a producer of repeated champion offspring.
Sire, FTAF Privateer, was sold to Mary Miller of Aspen Alpacas earlier in 2022-- so we are very happy to have this young girl and her handsome harlequin brother from last year in our program.
