Phenotype
Snowmass Coalition is an exceptional male and he is a superb option for light colored breeding program. His fiber is dense, full of high-frequency crimp, and the fleece holds a beautiful luster. His blanket has great uniformity that is demonstrated in both visual inspection and histogram data.
Coalition ranks in the top 5% for MC (mean curvature), the top 10% for AFD (micron count), SDAFD (micron standard deviation), and SF (spinning fineness), and the top 25% for FW (fleece weight).
His strong fiber characteristics continue on to his offspring. Mai Tai was award Reserve Champion at her first alpaca show in 2022.
Demeanor
Coalition is the “king” of our breeder males. While he is never one to initiate conflict, he is quick to close out any disagreements between the males. He is easy to handle, well-mannered, and quick to take on his breeding duties.
Genotype: eeAA
Coalition’s ASIP alleles show he has no black alleles and his MC1R alleles show he has no dilutions. This genotype combination tells us he can produce offspring in lighter color ranges such as white, beige, and fawn.
