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!

Just wow to how this girl's fleece is maturing, we are thrilled with beautiful Bodacia.
And what an unusual color - she has silver spots in that fleece - plus a grey leg - and beautiful crimpy curls! Super conformation - strong and bouncy.
Shorn she reveals a lovely silver garland - just beautiful!
Look at these fun pictures - have you ever seen anything like Bodacia?
Now figure in her pedigree and look at that fleece.
Oh - and she's nearly... |

DarkStar'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 DarkStar's siblings have been exported to Europe.
DarkStar's dam is true black, Delphi's Bodacia "Bodie". Bodie is the daughter of Judges Choice and 9X grey color champion-- KVRs Peruvian True Eye Candy.
From GSire, IKE's page... JUDGE'S CHOICE WINNER FOR FLEECE!! Ike's advanced Judge's Choice fleece, which scored 87 points - puts him in a very very small class of elite classic gray herd sires. In halter, he was awarded Color Champion at arguably the toughest halter show in the country, the Futurity. is a US Steel daughter so this boy's pedigree is packed with grey genetics.
DarkStar's maternal brother 2X champion, Rare Gem Bada Bing! Now standing stud in Central California.
DarkStar is a solid youngster-- straight legs, lovely head style and a bright, dense, curly true black fleece. DarkStar's harlequin appaloosa sire throws appaloosas and harlequins >80 percent of the time. Unfortunately, DarkStar missed the memo on the spots. DarkStar has a 50 percent chance of carrying the appaloosa gene and being able to produce it. He also will make a nice choice for black and grey breeders given his pedigree on his dam's side.
DarkStar is available to purchased now, but cannot depart to a new home until he is completely weaned ~ June 2023. Board-free until departure.
