Although young, the potential in this girl is obvious. Her genetics are strong, and her fiber looks like it's going to be amazing.
Accoyo Apple Blossom carries some impressive lineage in her pedigree. Her maternal side carries Accoyo Atticus -multipe champion including AOBA Reserve Champion, Caligula -perhaps the most respected Accoyo herdsire imported from Peru and Accoyo Zen Do - from Don Barreda's B-line bred for fineness and perfect uniformity of fleece. Apple's dam, Thai Blossom is a stunning girl with excellent micron statistics, a gorgeous head, nice coverage and incredibly dense fiber. Apple's sire is Accoyo Spartan, a '98 in-utero import out of Accoyo Andorra. Andorra was selected for importation based on the fineness and uniformity of her fleece. Her co-efficient of variation at the time of importation was just 17.5! Accoyo Spartan was best known for the density of his fleece. Last year he sheared 13 pounds of fiber at age 10! Spartan resided at Auress Alpacas until his death earlier this year. Apple Blossom was the last cria he sired. His genetics are rare and combined beautifully with the Caligula and Zen Do lines in Accoyo Apple Blossom.
With the intense denstiy coming from both her maternal and paternal sides, we were not surprised to see at shearing time that Apple had those Accoyo neck wrinkles. We were, however, surprised that she has them non-stop going from her head to her back.
We are very pleased with the look and feel of this young girl's fleece. We think she is going to be simply outstanding. Accoyo Apple Blossom comes with a breeding to the Ideuma Creek herdsire of your choice when she is ready. We would recommend our 8X champion and 16 time blue ribbon winner, Accoyo Invasion. We can also offer our blue ribbon fawn Accoyo, Ironman, a Victor son. Either of these boys should make a beautiful full Accoyo cria with Apple.
