Emerald Farms Rincon Cloud - Breeding fee $4000
Rainier Alpacas proudly presents AOBA 05' National's Gray Grand Color Champion, Emerald Farms Rincon Cloud. He is a light silver grey champion male who is in his third year of breeding and has settled most females in just one breeding. Rincon is the product of a very selective breeding program and comes from a background of silver champions. Rincon's dam is a gorgeous silver chilean from Emerald Farms and his sire is silver grey, six time color champion, Cresent Moon's Rayo Del Sol. His grand sire is the award winning silver grey male, Patagonia's Danko.
At Nationals 05', Dr. Julio Sumar noted that Rincon was an excellent breed standard. Rincon is compact and carries himself with extreme pride. He also has that beautiful Rayo Del Sol head with a heavily fibered face. Rincon's first four cria have arrived. Out of four different colored dams we have gotten two medium silver,one rose gray and one maroon. Each with coal black eyes. Their conformation is outstanding with a very strong under carriage. Although they are just new cria their fiber is already showing amazing character. Watch for Rincon's cria in the showring next spring!!! Owners of these first crias have all come back and scheduled another breeding with Rincon.
Rincon's first cria entered the ring in a big way for their first ever show at AlpacaPalooza 07'. Every single cria went home a winner. Often youngest in their classes they overwhelmingly impressed the judges taking Get of Sire (ahead of Nishio and Absolute), Gray Female Color Champion, Gray Female Reserve Color Champion and many firsts. Rincon is predominately throwing silver, rose gray and blue black. He has put his unique stamp on his cria that is paying off in the show ring. Rincon's cria have inherited his extreme density, full fibered head, ultra fine fiber and beautiful crimp style that the judges could not resist. Rincon's ability to improve the dam has been dramatic. You don't have to bring a blue ribbon winner to Rincon to produce a champion cria. Bring him your good, your bad and your ugly!!!! Rincons first batch of cria are selling at top dollar at the ripe age of six months old.
If you are looking for the best in genetics and the very best in greys...we welcome you to take a closer look at Emerald Farm's Rincon Cloud. Rincon is standing stud at our farm for the entire 2007 breeding season. Don't miss this opportunity. He can turn silver into gold for you too!
