FOUNDATION - Dam of champions

AutumnSun's Sweet Patriotic Song

Huacaya Bred (Female) White

AOA# 31422710 DOB: 8/27/200815 yrs
With glowing fleece and calm, easy-going personality, Song was born big (~22 lbs at birth and ~90 lbs at 9 mos) & grew at an amazing pace. She is well conformed, with a strong and straight frame even in her maturity. She has been a fantastic mom, just like her own mom and daughters. Song is the dam the you can build whole programs from, one that just keeps producing. She has had predominately white crias for us but that is due to the way she was bred. Don't be fooled by this into thinking t ...

AOA# 35427339 DOB: 9/21/20176 yrs
Stunning fleece on a power packed compact body. He demonstrated this with his Color Champion win at the 2019 AOA National Fleece Show. He has proven his ability to produce black with his blue-black boy out of our Che Bella! Sadly we cannot repeat this breeding as we lost our girl suddenly this year. But we are holding Concerto close to our vest to see if we have a contender for our herdsire row. But not one to put all our eggs in one basket, Guinness's breeding list was full this year and ...

If you are curious to know... Aika is a 'love song' in Japanese, and it is pronounced 'AH-ee-ka' or if it is easier -- 'EYE-ka'.

Aika is the paternal half sister to our Special K, a multiple champion fawn dam of our many time champion Black Maelstrom. She is out of Song, who has lingering fiber quality and had produced a slew of excellent dams (and an occasional herdsire) for us over the years. Song has also produced black more than once, and those dark genes have been passed on to Aika who has had her own black crias and whose progeny has produce black as well.

Aika's light fawn girl, Fresca, sired by the multiple champion Matrix son Red Granite's Mr. Ben Franklin, boasted a luxurious, shiny fleece with a staple past our hand length and a crimp all the way to her skin! After being shorn, we were really impressed with her regrowth of even more beautiful fiber that was delicious to handle. Fresca, had a worthy show career with banners earned before producing first a black male in 2021 with spectacular fleece and then our very nice 2023 fawn girl named Champagne Bubbles that stole everyone's heart so that she secured her spot in our reducing herd.

Then Aika honed her breeding skills on her white male cria by the white Accoyo America Seneca Warrior, who sold as a juvie. Aika showed herself to be a really great mom with this second cria that quickly exceeded all the other crias that year in growth rate and overall weight /size.

With Axios, our fawn herdsire with grey lineage, she produced... well, a beige ;). But it is often said that fawns and beiges often still have the genetics for grey though they themselves are expressing as a light. This 2021 well-developed girl grew fast under Aika's devoted attention as a juvie and solidly filling out as a yearling. Carolina has been bred to our champion modern rose (roan) grey, LibertyAlpaca's Magistrate.

Aika produced a black girl by our champion black Dark Secret! Producing black when bred to black, not a bad trait to have in a dark breeding program. Mina has a nice crimp, density, and brightness -- and a fist sized silver grey spot on her hip, so we know she wants to breed grey!.

For her 2024 cria, Aika was bred to our AOA black fleece champion, AutumnSun's Guinness. This black male is the son of our multiple champion black dam Red Granites Molly whose other offspring have sold to Austria and Poland. He has produce lovely black crias, so with Aika's propensity to throw black when bred to black we have high hopes for a beautiful black cria in 2024!

She is proven and bred as confirmed by ultrasound, which fills her breeding warranty. Her breeding will have a live cria guarantee. Certificate transfer, exam, and transportation are buyer costs with a month free agisting to arrange transportation.
