The day Applause was born, we were wowed! It was the first time we didn't say, "If he only had a little more this" or "a little more that." Applause was born a knock-out and he has not disappointed us. He has an incredible soft handle and loads of crimpy-to-the-end, dense fleece. Out of our foundation dam Heatherbrook's Masquerada and sired by Amanda Vanderbosh's legendary grey herdsire Bisturi (who is no longer in the country), Applause has the best of both! Bisturi's body style and lovely dense crimp style and Masquerada's fine, soft handle and strong color genetics. His body style is stout, big-boned, and solid. When he walks by, he makes a statement. He has a perfect bite and a head to die for. We cannot say enough about this young male to do him justice. At 8 years old, he still grabs the attention of every visitor on our ranch! Just today, one asked about him and said "I'll remember him!" We could not be more pleased with the cria this male is producing. He is predominately throwing gray, even when bred to other colors. We are also excited about the rich, dark silver color we are getting, passed down from his dam! We believe our success is in the success of our clients!!!

Consigned for Dancing Elk Alpacas We were so excited when we got the opportunity to purchase Whisper's dam bred to the legendary A Paca Fun's Super Sonic. The day she was born we knew she was something special. She is very solid in her bone with excellent conformation. She is one of the first animals noticed by farm visitors for her beautiful presence. In the style of her sire Whisper has very high frequency crimp style with excellent density while maintaining a soft hand. Whisper has proven herself as a top production dam in that everyone of her cria have been exceptional. Her first cria is a multi champion and producer of champions, her second cria a multi champion and producer of a Judges Choice. Whisper's last cria is a lovely true black male cria, Mas Que Nada. (Named from a cool song title, so do not let the name fool you.) This boy has all of the strong attributes of his dam and sire, Crescent Moon's Emmaus, combined. Whisper continues to change and improve the trajectory of the Dancing Elk grey breeding program. In 2020 "AMAZING GRACE, HOW SWEET THE SOUND..." IS HOW I FEEL WHEN I SEE WHISPER WHISPER HAS IT ALL AND WOULD BRING TOP-OF-THE-LINE GENETICS TO ANY BREEDING PROGRAM. WHISPER HAS SUPERIOR CONFORMATION, STRENGTH OF BONE AND LARGER FRAME STAPLE LENGTH IS >4'' HIGHER FREQUENCY CRIMP FROM THE SKIN TO THE TIPS HER FIBER IS VERY DENSE WITH A SOFT HANDLE
