Paladin of Stone Mist

Have Phenotype, Will Travel!

We are proud to announce the acquisition of complete interest in Paladin of Stone Mist! He is now a full-time Southern California boy and is standing stud exclusively at our ranch. We also have four of his off-spring on the ground and they are everything we had hoped for from this boy.

As Al Cousill of "pucara international" said there aren’t too many out there better than him.   This boy exhibits the perfect alpaca phenotype and, most importantly, impresses it upon his progeny.  He is also very unique in that he allows the dam's color through.  He has sired crias in colors ranging from white, beige, light fawn, med fawn, dark fawn, browns, a true black.... and most recently, a rose grey.  Each was born with his beautiful head and coverage.

With unsurpassed genetics from Caligula, El Moustachio, Rural Alianza and Tocto, Paly possesses flawless conformation and a perfect bite.  His fiber is extremely dense, yet very fine and lustrous with a truly elite crimp style and fantastic coverage. As you can see he is the complete package !

If your looking to add fineness and density to your herd then Paladin is your man. With a micron of 18 and almost 100% comfort factor how can you go wrong.

Please contact us today to schedule a breeding to this magnificent animal.


Breeding fee: $2,000.

Trivia:

In the dictionary a Paladin is a chivalrous person, a knight. Paladin uses the symbol of a white chess knight on his card. He often wines and dines beautiful women in need of his services and then presents them with his card.

Have Gun, Will Travel was a western adventure popular in the 1950's and 60's. The main character was Paladin, a gunfighter wandering in search of adventure. He does the work that others would not or could not do for themselves and although he does them for a price he is still a man with a conscience. His headquarters is the Carlton Hotel in San Francisco, where Paladin lives and has a cordial but cool relationship with the Bellhop whom he refers to as Heyboy.
