Service Sire: Rumble's Zakai Stargazer | AOA# 35239789 | Medium Fawn GENOTYPE: Eea3a3 ------------------------- Description from AutumnSun Alpacas website: "* PROVEN AND BRED * GREAT MOM, EASY BREEDER, EASY KEEPER! * MOSTLY FEMALE OFFSPRING TO-DATE * ROAN COLORATION * CHAMPION SIRE WHO MAKES SPOTS Bliss has softness of hand, uniformity, well grown frame and conformation of a fantastic foundation dam as she matures. Taking after her own dam, she become a roan grey at 2 years old with consistent white fibers throughout her blanket. As a yearling, she had white fibers (before modern grey, and now roan, classes were common), and so showed as a dark indefinite in Bred & Owned, where darks, greys, and ID are grouped together. At her first show, with only 4 months of fiber growth, Bliss was described by the judge as balanced, with good uniformity in micron and expression of organization throughout the staple and across the blanket, and a lovely handle. In production, Bliss was an excellent mom to her first cria, a dark modern rose grey (roan) male by Red Granite's Mr. Ben Franklin, named Ragnarok, who has gone to another farm. She continued to be an excellent dam to her roan grey girl, Serenity, sired by our multiple champion Smokejumper, who bore lasting fineness. Serenity joined our breeding program to carry on Jumper's fantastic fiber genetics, as he has died early from an accident, passing her fine & uniform genetics on to her two girls, Inara Serra and Perfect Harmony. We bred Serentiy to Truthsayer for a repeat of Harmony, and Harmony bred to our Major to explore her spotted/classic genetics. Bred to our grey champion, Truthsayer, Bliss made us the lovely AutumnSun's Clairvoyance, a LF (roan really, as 'fawn grey') with wonderful fiber style. Genetic typing shows she is a dilute black, 'ee aa'. Clair is one that should be able to breed into a black or grey program, which we have exercised by breeding her to our rose grey champion stud AutumnSun's Artorius. Bliss' next dark roan girl (see a trend in girl offspring?) was sired by our multiple champion classic grey, Dauntless, that we named Serendipity Smiles. Serendipity was bred to our well-pedigreed dark roan, Magistrate, to produce a lovely dark roan, AutumnSun's Joie de Vivre. Greys and roans abound! Not to stop there, we have bred Bliss back to grey, this time a classic grey -- AutumnSun's Reposado, son of champion rose grey and our other matriarchal grey line via our AutumnSun's Loreleigh (which brings in great greys, Enlightenment, Avatar, and Addonis). Bred to LRG Reposado, Bliss surprised us with a LB male -- though he could be a light modern rose grey given time to fully express his coloration. SOLD!
