AML El Duro's Principio

AML Legacy's Accoyo Leonardo
With 4Peruvian Legacy as his sire and a prize-winning Accoyo GrandMaster daughter (SA Grandessence) as his dam, Leonardo has spectacular lineage. He has beautiful, fine, bright, soft, crimpy, consistent fleece. Solid bone, a pleasing head, and all-around excellent conformation complete the picture of a top herdsire.

Leonardo is one of very few full Accoyo sons of 4P Legacy, a herdsire who is legendary for his fiber remaining very fine past ten years of age and for producing highly prized offspring. Crescent Moon Alpacas sold a half interest in Legacy for $750,000. AML Accoyo Stefani, a sister of Leonardo's through his dam, sold at auction for $70,000.

Leonardo has had a run of wins in the show ring, including Light RESERVE COLOR CHAMPION at the 2005 North American Alpaca Show (Level V), right behind his brother Salud, another Legacy son. Leonardo's first two crias arrived this fall--both females--one beige or light fawn out of a fawn dam, and the other brown out of a grey dam. Both look exceptional. Leonardo's first two crias to go into the show ring took color championships, and one has gone on to win even more.

AML Legacy's Accoyo Leonardo

AML Legacy's Citation
Sorrowfully, Citation passed away June 18, 2009. He was not even three yet. Tufts Veterinary Hospital is finalizing the necropsy findings, but preliminarily it seems as it might have been an adverse drug reaction. Citation was one of the first two crias born to us, and he is sadly missed.

He had just started his breeding career, and his first (and only) cria is due Fall of 2009.

Aml Nicolai
AML Nicolai is producing incredible cria! He has 18 cria on the ground and any that have entered the ring, have ribboned, including a color champion. Everyone is wowed by his density and the awesome heads and coverage he passes onto his offspring!

AML PH Legacy's Legend
Add the Legacy genetics to your herd and step it up a generation!

AML PH Legacy's Legend

AML Santanoni Del Reino
Santanoni Del Reino (Flick) is Outstanding! He is a medium brown son of Hemmingway's El Reino. His dense fleece is composed of extremley fine, soft fiber with excellent crimp and handle. Brown alpacas that exhibit his fiber characteristics are rare. This is a unique opportunity to bring these genetics to your herd. Flick has shown he can produce great offspring in AEA Mt. Titus! Titus took a 3rd place ribbon at the 2007 Mapaca Jubilee, a 2nd place ribbon at the 07 Empire at one year of age, and a first at the 2008 Green Mountain Spectacular! Not a bad accomplishment given the Hemingway/Legacy cross.
