EL NINO’S MAXIMUS
¾ Accoyo
|
|
|
|
|
We are thrilled with the acquisition of El Nino’s Maximus from Accoyo America – Pacific Crest Alpacas. Max is the progeny of 2005 Herdsire of the Year, El Nino, and his dam, Artemis, is an offspring Pperuvian Diana (Conchatonca herd).
Check his lineage and you will see that Max has a genetic lineup that can “maximize” your breeding program! Grandsire Pperuvian Caligula on the sire’s side, and grandsire Pperuvian Vengador from the dam, Max has “one of the finest and densest fleeces ever produced on our farm” in the words of Greg Mecklem. His histogram at age 2 was impressive with an MFD of 17.6 microns, SD of 4.1 microns, and CV of 23.3%. Seasoned alpaca breeders will recall that Vengador is the son of Don Julio Barreda’s coveted sire, Shere Khan.
First time out in the show ring, Max took a 1st place at the Southern Select under Judge Amanda VandenBosch.
Maximus's first crias are just hitting the ground and they are phenomenal. Elite fleece character, density, and brightness are their key qualities. As prominent alpaca judge, Mike Safley, frequently says, "the proof is in the progeny..." you must see for yourself Max's progeny to fully appreciate what he is bringing to our breeding program.
Maximus is the only El Nino son residing in Kentucky full time which enables consistent availability for your breeding needs.

SSF PRIDE
½ Peruvian – ½ Chilean

|

So named because he was an alpaca to be proud of, SSF Pride is an up and coming medium silver gray huacaya male that will be settling females at Eagle Bend next spring.
Pride has not disappointed us in the show ring, taking 3rd place at his first ever outing at six months of age! He has consistently placed in the ribbons at subsequent shows and we look for him to excel again next spring in the show ring.
Sired by My Peruvian Ndume, Pride has a fabulous genetic background, also mirrored by grandsire Acero Marka’s Mr. Know It All on his dam’s side. Pride is ½ Peruvian and has the high frequency crimp with consistent color that is highly prized by breeders of gray alpacas. He sports a very beautiful, desired head crowned with a well shaped, pleasing bonnet.
Pride is now settling females at Eagle Bend and we are accepting bookings for breedings. Stud fee: $2,500

ACCOYO AMERICA LOHENGRIN
Full Accoyo
|
|
|
|
|
Words cannot describe our excitement at securing a full accoyo Camilio son at the recent Parade of Champions sale at Accoyo America! Lohengrin provides high fleece character to Eagle Bend’s breeding program and he can do the same for yours! In addition, his sire is well known for allowing color to come through to his offspring and we welcome this attribute in Lohengrin.
He is the offspring of Accoyo Camilio, the true fawn herdsire of Accoyo America, who has sired dozens of show winning crias. His full accoyo mother, Rosmery, has also produced several champions including Pennyroyal.
Lohengrin carries the handsome head of his sire, and the beautiful light fawn coloration that is rarely seen in fawn-colored alpacas. Extremely dense, fine, and bright, we can hardly wait until he begins breeding early next summer.
Inquire now to secure some of the first breedings to this very excellent male! If you desire to add density to your females, this is the male that can do it, plus provide color.
