We are now closing Legionnaire to outside breedings. With hi weight fluctuation and age we think it best to keep him in house. He has many sons working for us! To say we were excited to partner with Amber Autumn Alpacas with CCNF Legionnaire at the 2014 Breeders Edge Auction would be an understatement, a huge one. In a long run, Legionnaire went on to be the highest selling alpaca at the auction (we bought him for $57,500), figures considering this guys genetics. This spectacular young male was the 2015 Futurity Fawn Male Color Champion & 2015 AOA National Fawn Male Reserve Champion!! Two of the most prestigious shows in the alpaca industry and he took home purple. Ending his show career with four Judges' Choice awards and nine Championship awards. By one of the world’s great sires, out of a female from a sensational family line who has made a huge impact on the United States industry, here we have a male bred on a cross that has been proven to produce champions. CCNF Legionnaire, a son of Snowmass Matirx Majesty, has enjoyed extraordinary success as a sire with championship winners in both the United States and Canada and his offspring being found in Poland, United States, Canada, and Australia. Overall, his offspring have won many championships and even Judges’ Choice and National Championship titles. Even more impressive, his son Red Granites Pallaton (Now resides in Poland) won the 2018 Canadian Supreme Champion Male award, Palltons offspring have had much success in the Canadian show rings themselves. Another son by Legionnaire, Red Granites Man of Mystery (Owned by Willow Wind Farm Alpacas) is the densest alpaca yet biopsied by Ian Watt in the USA, and we have not yet heard of a denser alpaca out there a at a whopping 127.2 follicles/square mm density. His daughter, Red Granites Pixie was sold at the 2018 Amber Autumn Auction for a pretty penny, where she was purchased by EP Cambridge Alpaca Stud in Australia. Combining Cas-Cad-Nac's powerhouse production female; CCNF Magdalena and Snowmass Matrix Majesty you would only hope for an advanced fleece, Legionnaire carries a extremely advanced fleece. He carried a six year old fleece with a AFD of 17.3 and SD of 2.5, SIMPLY UNREAL numbers for a six year old BREEDING male. Legionnaire's breedings are limited, please contact us for more information.

Red Granites Allison is an absolutely astrounding, true black Color Champion female. Her Dam, LBA's Abigal was one of our main Kirwin daughters that we could used for breeding dark colors.

She comes from a remarkable line of some of the grandest black and dark colored alpacas around in the US. Allison's Sire is no other than Crescent Moon's Thelonius who is owned by our friends at Crescent Moon Ranch; Debbie & Scott Miller. He was a respected 7X CHAMPION male, that included a Color Champion win at the Futurity 2011.

This male combines the top breeding herdsires in the country with a great maternal pedigree and a million-dollar fine, bright, dense, and very uniform BLACK fleece that can rarely be found today. Legit was awarded the 2021 AOA National Black Male Reserve Champion banner at the 2021 AOA National Fleece Show. He is combined and nine-time champion male, respectfully. Judges have called him a “full package male” as well as something that black huacaya breeders should strive to produce. His uniformity is what has blown the judges away at every show he has attended. He was recently awarded the 2023 AOA National Black Male Reserve Color Championship banner in Walking Fleece! It's not every day you find a BLACK male of this quality with a fleece that has lingering fineness, extreme softness, density, and uniformity, especially a black male with a great set of EPDs to go with his striking good looks.
