Herdsires

ARI # - 1115468   Color: Medium Fawn

Firethorn is a full Bolivian fawn male direct from the Acero Marka line. He has fine bundled crimp from his topknot to his toes that is uniform, bright, and super lusterous. His maternal grandsire is Acero Marka's Bernard, a top black Canadian herdsire. Firethorn definitely has the potential to produce much desired colorful cria along with improved fleece quality. Now proven, his first cria, a medium brown girl, "Firethorn's Willow" at Hagen Heights Alpaca Farm; his second cria is a fawn girl "Firethorn's Windrush" at Eagle Hollow Farm; his 3rd is a medium fawn male who is simply gorgeous, "Firethorn's Oro del Rey".

Firethorn has tremendous confomation, a wonderful gait, straight legs and a classic typey head. His body is square and well balanced. He has large, evenly sized testicles and a perfect bite. Along with all of that, he also has a great personality. He is friendly and easy to handle.

We would like to thank Hagen Heights Alpaca Farm for the opportunity to partner with them on such a magnificent male. We are extremely excited to see what he will do for our herd, and yours as well. Please contact either Wild Thyme Farm or Hagen Heights Alpaca Farm for more information on this tremendous impact alpaca!

We are pleased to introduce you to Rowdy Roustabout. He is a true black full Chilean male with excellent, award winning genetics. His sire is Valentino C who is out of Baba Ghannouj. Valentino is making waves in the midwest where he resides and we are VERY excited to offer his son for stud services here in NY. Rowdy's mom has ONLY produced true black crias! Valentino has never produced a white cria!

Rowdy took a second place ribbon at the Central NY show in Weedsport July 4th weekend! Super cute full fiber face on this boy, called very 'typey' by judge Wade Gease, and excellent conformation. He is a real cutie and we intend to continue his show career.

Rowdy's pedigree has several colors in it, but mainly true black. There is no white in his pedigree at all. We expect him to pass his color on, like his father and mother. If you are breeding for black, looking for a great deal and want some new bloodlines, then in 2009, Rowdy is your man! We expect him to be ready to go by late summer of 2009 but breedings booked with him now will be good until 2010! We'll leave his fee low until he is proven to try and encourage some of you breeding for black to give this boy a try. We'll even finance at no interest until he is ready. Can't beat that deal!
