| GLR Armani came from the Great Lakes Ranch breeding program. So, it was no shock that he took 3 reserve championships of which were Futurity and the National Alpaca Show. While, Armani originally was registered as fawn color, soon afterward his unique coloring appeared that still makes hearts pitter-patter. He has a regal presence, high luster, nice bone, an amazing freckled face - all with a gentle confidence. There aren't too many full Peruvian grays in the world, and Armani is ROSE gray--a s... |

Drakkar was exactly what was hoped for in the pairing. The Harlequin freckled-face and stunning exhibition of rose grey color with the swirls of fawn, brown & light highlights throughout his fleece.
His dam was a GLR Nico & Max daughter. His grandsire GLR Nico still one of the most sought-after herdsires. He won numerous Championships and top awards in Get of Sire, judges choice along with producing numerous championship offspring. Absolutely phenomenal in itself but even more some coming out of True Black! Drakkar's sire GLR Armani is also from GLR lineage. Armani has replicated himself a few times and this pairing brought the beautiful, rare color along with luster evident at birth. Drakkar never skipped a beat with growth. This was truly remarkable given he was tragically orphaned early on and even though he was bottle fed he was always kept with his herdmates and not overhandled. He has gained a nice girth to his frame.
Unfortunately Drakkar was planned to show the year covid canceled shows and he and his owners never got to see him compete in a ring.
Drakkar has always handled nicely with handlers and bred like a professional just at 2 years of age. His first cria is an interesting fawn/brown female with high luster. He has recently bred to a silver grey. Truly he may be one of those underutilized males that could bring beautiful offspring, especially for those hoping for rare, rose grey suris.
He is owned by Villa Ni Fiori but resides and is booking breedings at Alpacas of Windy Hill in Southern California.
