Lowell Fredericks was already an experienced llama and alpaca judge when he decided to start his own alpaca herd. Lowell knew that the successful breeding program must have at its center a superior herdsire. He searched all over the USA until he found and purchased Crown Prince. Lowell then proceeded to purchase females that matched Crown Prince in excellence.

Wille of the Valley Farm purchased several of the offspring from that successful breeding program and they continue to be the foundation of our excellent herd.

Crown Prince has been an "elite herdsire" and has not been available for outside breedings until now. This outstanding herdsire is now owned by Julie Musgrove, author of "A Common Sense Approach to Alpacas" and for the first time is available for VERY LIMITED outside breedings to select females.

Breeding Fee: $2,500

 
IS THAT A PERUVIAN?!!!!!

We hear that question over and over again about our beautiful select herd sire Crown’s Bay. CB is the best of the best. He is noticed wherever we take him. He is full Chilean and as you can see is covered from head to toe with the most beautiful, luxurious black crimpy fiber with incredible sheen. He had magnificent conformation and bone and best of all he carries dominant genes. His sire, Crown Prince was retired ALSA judge Lowell Frederick’s elite male. Lowell bred selectively for seven years before he decided to sell any of his progeny. Crown's Bay is an extremely genetically dominant male and has produced some very fine alpacas. Lowell agrees that CB is everything he had worked for.

Crown's Bay has collected many blue ribbons and awards including Reserve Champion at the Western Ohio Triple Crown in Lewisburg, Ohio and a 3rd Place in the 1st Composite Class in 2000 at the OABA Conference under the critical eye of show judge, Mike Safley. If you are familiar with composite classes you know that the shorn animals are judged in the ring on confirmation alone. The results of their fiber, which is judged separately
can move the placing of that animal either up or down.

True black Crown's Bay received a 3rd in confirmation and a 3rd in fiber in a class of white/fawn Peruvians and Accoyo's! That speaks volumes for the quality and presence of this animal.

Crown's Bay is now being made available for limited breedings to a few select females.

Two years ago, our search began for the next herdsire to build on the "Crown line".
Our goal was to guard what we had already achieved in color, confirmation, health
and reproduction success. We found exactly what we needed in the capable breeding
program and proven success of Karen Byram & Hugo Ulloa at Alpacas de la Patagonia.

Patagonia'a Bolero is son of Sinopsis Nocturna who has produced more show winning offspring than any other black male in the country! One look at Patagonia's Bolero and you know he is his father's son.

We are expecting his first cria to arrive this summer.
