Rumaki has a sturdy frame with excellent bone density. His lustrous beige fiber is very fine, remaining less than 20 micron at age 2. He has uniform crimp, density, and excellent staple length. Rumaki is the complete package.

Sire of our 8x champion Special K!
The judges' comments make us exceptionally proud of the product of work. Brought to our farm by luck from the notable breeding program of Fossil Ridge Alpacas as they were closing their farm, Special K was a bit on the small side with a lot of growing left to do, but with fiber that even then showed its fantastic potential. We are so fortunate to have the opportunity to have K that we could not believe our luck in being able to also add her sire, Rumaki, to our program. Long fans of Rumaki, we are thrilled.
Rumaki has had other great offspring that have gone on to their careers at other farms. One such notable is Fossil Ridge Rumaki's Gold Schlager whose 2012 (2-yr-old) fiber micron statistics look great: AFD 17.1, SD 4.3, CV 25.1%, SF 17.2, CF 98.8%, and Mean Staple Length 77.4mm.
Rumaki adds to his long list of top finishes by winning the Reserve Color Championship and the blue ribbon in the Light Fawn/Beige Adult Male class at the 2006 MOPACA halter show. Judge Jude Anderson stated that Rumaki “has excellent confirmation, with a broad chest and strong bone and he has a fleece to match. I placed this male over the other males in this class for his fineness”. Rumaki was awarded the 2006 MOPCA Reserve Color Championship in the ultra-tough competition of this level 4 show, winning over some of the very best light fawn and beige alpacas in the industry today. Judge Anderson stated that it was a true compliment for this two-year-old male to win the Reserve Color Championship over so many excellent yearling light fawn-beige male alpacas.
Rumaki is a son of the well know Hall of Fame Herdsire, Peruvian Royal Fawn. Co-owned by Double”O”Good Alpacas and Maple Brook Alpacas. His awesome genetics do not end there; his Dam Peruvian Tanya is also dam to Peruvian Lancaster. Lancaster, co-owned by AlpacaStock, Aspenwood Alpacas, and Chatham Alpacas, is a 6X color champion including the 2003 AOBA Nationals - Fawn Reserve Color Champion.
Rumaki has passed unexpectedly due to illness after a cold snap. Truly a loss as we were not even able to use him yet. K and her offspring mean that much more as the female he had breed had slipped her pregnancy and we have no further siblings.

Stunning fleece on a power packed compact body. He demonstrated this with his Color Champion win at the 2019 AOA National Fleece Show.
He has proven his ability to produce black with his blue-black boy out of our Che Bella! Sadly we cannot repeat this breeding as we lost our girl suddenly this year. But we are holding Concerto close to our vest to see if we have a contender for our herdsire row. But not one to put all our eggs in one basket, Guinness's breeding list was full this year and ...
If you are curious to know... Aika is a 'love song' in Japanese, and it is pronounced 'AH-ee-ka' or if it is easier -- 'EYE-ka'.
Aika is the paternal half sister to our Special K, a multiple champion fawn dam of our many time champion Black Maelstrom. She is out of Song, who has lingering fiber quality and had produced a slew of excellent dams (and an occasional herdsire) for us over the years. Song has also produced black more than once, and those dark genes have been passed on to Aika who has had her own black crias and whose progeny has produce black as well.
Aika's light fawn girl, Fresca, sired by the multiple champion Matrix son Red Granite's Mr. Ben Franklin, boasted a luxurious, shiny fleece with a staple past our hand length and a crimp all the way to her skin! After being shorn, we were really impressed with her regrowth of even more beautiful fiber that was delicious to handle. Fresca, had a worthy show career with banners earned before producing first a black male in 2021 with spectacular fleece and then our very nice 2023 fawn girl named Champagne Bubbles that stole everyone's heart so that she secured her spot in our reducing herd.
Then Aika honed her breeding skills on her white male cria by the white Accoyo America Seneca Warrior, who sold as a juvie. Aika showed herself to be a really great mom with this second cria that quickly exceeded all the other crias that year in growth rate and overall weight /size.
With Axios, our fawn herdsire with grey lineage, she produced... well, a beige ;). But it is often said that fawns and beiges often still have the genetics for grey though they themselves are expressing as a light. This 2021 well-developed girl grew fast under Aika's devoted attention as a juvie and solidly filling out as a yearling. Carolina has been bred to our champion modern rose (roan) grey, LibertyAlpaca's Magistrate.
Aika produced a black girl by our champion black Dark Secret! Producing black when bred to black, not a bad trait to have in a dark breeding program. Mina has a nice crimp, density, and brightness -- and a fist sized silver grey spot on her hip, so we know she wants to breed grey!.
For her 2024 cria, Aika was bred to our AOA black fleece champion, AutumnSun's Guinness. She has produced a healthy MF boy! This boy reminds me of Fresca, her keeper daughter from a similarly pedigreed sire.
