Huacaya Alpacas

Sweetgrass Maximillian is an exceptional rare True black male whose presence is as compelling as his pedigree. Sired by LibertyAlpacas Manifest-Destiny, the 2025 National Dark Male Breeder of the Year, Maximillian reflects the depth and excellence of his lineage in every measurable way. His recently shorn cria fleece revealed a level of refinement that immediately signals elite potential: Luxurious, supple handle that speaks to true fineness Well-defined, consistent character with a uniform, high-frequency crimp style Brightness and uniformity that elevate the entire blanket Early regrowth showing impressive density, with staples that pack tightly and promise a powerhouse fleece as he matures Beyond his fiber, Maximillian stands on a correct, well-balanced frame. His conformation is clean and true: Strong, level topline Correct bite Straight, well-aligned legs with proper substance of bone Excellent proportions that give him a confident, square stance This combination of elite fleece traits and correct conformation makes him the kind of young male who turns heads in the show ring and inspires confidence in the breeding barn. Maximillian embodies the future of dark color production—genetically rich, structurally sound, and fleece-forward in every way.

The odds of producing a rose grey from a full Accoyo paired with a light brown were slim—but genetics had other plans. Prince’s granddam (sire side) carries the influence of her top side, including the legendary .38 Special, and it clearly came through. We’ll take that win every time. From day one, Prince has hit the ground running, checking every measurable box you’d hope for in a young male with this pedigree. His structure, presence, and early fleece traits all point toward a cria with serious potential. Freshly shorn and ready to grow out his next fleece, Prince left behind a metric ton of superfine, beautifully consistent fiber that has us grinning ear to ear. Even at this young age, he’s already showing the architecture we were hoping for—tight, organized character with uniformity across the blanket and all the early indicators of a serious fleece producer. And of course, did we mention fine? Oh là là Now it’s the classic alpaca waiting game: hurry up and wait while that next fleece comes in. But based on what he revealed post-shear, we’re confident Prince is on track to make his mark. Cannot wait to show this boy off!

With this young male, all signs point toward a promising future. His dam is a fine-fleeced Accoyo female known for exceptional density and a long, lustrous staple. His sire, true black Snowmass Andean Midnight, continues to prove his influence in the show ring—consistently stamping out champions wherever his genetics land. For now, he’s an unproven cria with all the right ingredients. Time—and fleece—will tell.

LibertyAlpacas Encore is a young female who exemplifies the strength of her pedigree from the moment you lay eyes on her. Her first blanket growth is dense, velvety, and beautifully organized, showcasing the kind of quality that stands out even at an early age. The consistency of both character and fineness across the entire blanket speaks to the depth of genetics behind her—uniform, soft, and highly desirable for a dark-colored female. Encore’s conformation is correct in every way. She stands on a well-balanced frame with straight, well-aligned legs, a level topline, and clean proportions that give her a naturally poised, show-ready presence. Her structure complements her fleece, making her a complete package for both the ring and the breeding program. True to her dam, Encore carries a fearless personality paired with a friendly, engaging temperament. She is confident without being reactive, curious without being pushy, and genuinely enjoyable to work with—traits that make her a standout in the pasture and a pleasure to handle. With her combination of elite fleece traits, correct conformation, and an exceptional disposition, we have high expectations for what Encore will produce as she matures. She is the kind of female who promises to elevate the next generation.

Sweetgrass Andean Bella Donna holds a special place in our hearts as the very first alpaca born on our farm under our own breeder ID. From the start, she has shown the kind of quality that makes a breeder quietly proud. Her fleece displays extreme fineness with a soft, silky feel that sets her apart. Even in early growth, you can see the refined features and gentle uniformity that hint at her long-term potential. There’s a natural smoothness to her fiber—almost a delicate sheen—that gives her blanket a special kind of elegance without overstating it. Bella Donna stands on a well-balanced frame with the correctness we value, but what truly completes her is her temperament. She carries herself with a calm, sweet presence that makes her a joy to work with, and she has already become a favorite in the pasture. She may be our first, but she has set the bar with quiet confidence. We look forward to watching her grow and seeing the contributions she will make to our program.

Infinitos Sweet Calliope is the newest addition to the Sweetgrass foundation herd, and she brings both undeniable charm and exceptional genetic depth. True to her name, Calliope is a gentle, sweet-natured young female whose temperament makes her a pleasure to work with. She is the daughter of Mission Ridge Sweeten’ the Deal, a decorated champion dam known for producing consistent quality, and KVR Peruvian Ready to Rock, a proven champion sire with a strong record of passing on fineness, uniformity, and correct conformation. Calliope reflects the strengths of both parents, making her a promising cornerstone for future breeding. Her fleece is soft, fine, and impressively uniform, showing a developing structure that holds across the blanket. As she grows, we will be watching her mature into a feminine eye-catching presence. Calliope offers the complete package: a wonderful disposition, elite genetics, and fleece you can’t help but admire. She is a young female with the potential to elevate any breeding program—and we are thrilled to have her as part of ours.

Sunny Accoyo Pawnee is a 100% Accoyo female, sired by the exceptional Accoyo America Endeavor, a male who earned first place at a national competition and maintained top-5% EPD rankings well into the later years of his life. Pawnee carries forward many of these elite genetic traits, remaining in the top 5% for fineness, top 15% for mean curvature, and top 8% for standard deviation—a rare combination that speaks to her uniformity and lasting fleece quality.

Mara is a small-framed female with correct conformation throughout. She maintains a true bite, straight, well-aligned legs, and a balanced overall silhouette that has held up beautifully over time. Even more impressive is her fleece: at nine years old, she still carries fiber that is exceptionally soft, with a handle that surprises everyone who touches her. That lasting fineness is one of her most valuable traits.

Regent’s top side has proven itself generation after generation—nearly 1,000 crias on the ground from his next three generations alone. That kind of production record speaks volumes about the consistency and reliability behind this male. Regent himself is the full package: mild temperament, correct bite, balanced jaw and ears, and excellent overall conformation. His fleece shows uniform architecture across the blanket, a soft, pleasing handle, and tight, dense crimp supported by a strong 58.5% mean curvature. His 2024 fleece did not disappoint—5.8 lbs on the blanket and 11.7 lbs total, demonstrating the kind of productivity breeders look for when planning future herd improvement. We also managed 19 skeins of yarn from this blanket, which also won Reserve Champion at the local fair fleece contest. With his pedigree depth, proven production behind him, and the fleece and conformation he displays today, Regent is positioned to sire the kind of high-quality, show-worthy progeny breeders expect from a male of his caliber.

Kasidee is a beautifully conformed bay black female with a dense, well-handled blanket and impressive uniformity across her fleece. While her crimp style is more subtle, she more than makes up for it with her exceptionally sweet temperament. She carries consistent color throughout, marked only by a small white spot, and with a bay black sire and a true black dam, she is very likely to throw dark in future breedings.

PRODUCTION DAM DELUXE -- this phenomenal girl has consistency all over her and she delivers every single time with uniform fleeced offspring. She truly is a golden goose in terms of delivering beautiful crias! This female caught our attention the first time we saw her. Elania has very good density with great staple length and crimp character that extends well into her extremities. Her fineness originates from both sides of her pedigree with the likes of Legacy, Legacy's Golden Boy, Coyo Destiny and Peruvian Guellermo. Her sire "Amber Tahoma" is extremely dense with a high frequency crimp that maintains very nice fineness. During his show career Tahoma won several championships and in the 2011 ABI show placed third against several two and three year old males. Elania brings strong color to the party as well with a dark brown dam "RFA Eclair", and a blue black grand dam "Saltspring Parfait".

Sunny Accoyo Berlin has been a rock-solid producer for SAS, consistently stamping her cria with the same quality traits she carries. As a 100% Accoyo female sired by Accoyo America Endeavor, she reliably passes on a larger frame, refined structure, and notably fine fleece characteristics—the kind of maternal foundation traits breeders look for when building long-term herd quality. Berlin is now bred to Crescent Moon’s Sizzlin Shak, elevating her 2027 cria to an elite genetic pairing. Shak descends from the renowned Sizzlin line, responsible for some of the most influential males of the past decade, including Red Granite’s Val D L’sere and LibertyAlpacas Manifest Destiny. This cross blends Berlin’s elite Accoyo fineness and density with a powerhouse sire line known for producing champions and reshaping modern breeding standards. The upside on this cria is exceptional—this is the kind of pairing that moves a breeding program forward. Berlin is a proven female, bred and due summer 2027. With our small herd, we simply can’t retain every offspring from this lineage. She’s priced to sell, and we hope our loss becomes your gain as she brings her reliability, genetics, and future cria potential to your program.

Victoria brings everything you want in a foundation female. She carries a fine, soft, densely packed blanket with an exceptional hand and impressive staple length. This is the second blanket we’ve grown with her in our herd, and it’s no surprise she earned 1st Place at the 2023 IFA Fleece Show—her fleece speaks for itself. Her fiber is a true spinner’s delight: heavy blanket weight, long uniform staple, low %>30, and high mean curvature, giving her that lively, luxurious character prized in both the show ring and the mill. Her EPDs reinforce what her fleece already shows—Victoria is built to produce high-quality, show-worthy offspring with consistency. Now bred to Crescent Moon’s Sizzlin Shak, she steps into an elite genetic pairing. Shak descends from the renowned Sizzlin line—responsible for some of the most influential males of the last decade, including Red Granite’s Val D L’sere and LibertyAlpacas Manifest Destiny. This cross brings together elite Accoyo fineness and density with a powerhouse sire line known for producing champions and redefining breeding standards. The 2027 cria has enormous upside—this is the kind of pairing breeders wait years to make. This will be Tori’s second breeding, and she is already proven. She’s priced to sell—our small herd limits how many offspring we can retain from this lineage. It’s a tough one to let go, but we hope our loss becomes your gain.
