Corazon's Zen di Bella Vita
El Corazon` x Lil' Liza Jane
DOB:  10/10
ARI:  Pending
Color/Sex/Breed:  Lt fawn male huacaya
 
Zen is a full brother to Caruso, and pretty much an exact replica except more compact body and full face coverage.  Beautiful head, solid frame and nice bone is evident on this male.  His fleece shows similar characteristics to Caruso's - relative lack of guard hair, fine, very uniform with nice crimp character and DENSE.  His dam is by Matteo, Elite's first offspring.  Matteo has maintained finness of fleece well into his breeding years, as has Corazon`.  That is a major goal at Bella Vita, and Zen has this advantange coming from both sides of his pedigree. Zen's daddy is our 8x champion El Corazon` who is starting to garner his own accolades as a hersdire of distinction with several nice cria on the ground, both here and at Sand Creek Criations.  See Seminole Wind and Fantasy Fawn, both El Corazon` daughters, on Sand Creek's Open Herd website, both girls ribbon winners. Zen's brother, Caruso, is also a multiple ribbon winner.  Zen will "enlighten" your breeding program with lingering fineness, very good density, exquisite staple definition, uniformity and fleece with buttery hand, combined with a very nice exterior "look".

Corazon's Caruso di Bella Vita
El Corazon` x AKA Lil' Liza Jane
DOB:  10/31/09
ARI#:  31577908
Color:  Light fawn
SOLD TO THREE NIECE FARM IN CONNECTICUT.  CONGRATULATIONS ON THE PURCHASE OF THIS FINE JR. HERDSIRE!
 
He is darling and fully covered in fine, dense, crimpy fleece.  He has a gorgeous head and good bone.  His dam is by LCA Matteo, Elite's fist offspring.  The Elite line is known for producing dense, fine fleeces that maintain fineness through the life of the alpacaa.  Caruso's sire, our own El Corazon`,has show fleeces that score 15.5 out of 20 pounds for weight and are massive, covering my entire 4 x 6 foot skirting table.  This fleece has earned multiple championships, and he is the 2008 fawn male fleece Res. Champion at the AOBA National show.  Caruso's fleece is very bright, and he has an easy going personality.  He is a definite show quality male and has placed in the top ribbons at several shows already with very nice comments from the judge.  Caruso is a great junior herdsire prospect for a ranch looking to add fine, consistent, elite fleece.  Lingering fineness is an added bonus proven in the lines of Hemingway and Elite, whch Caruso represnts on both sides of the pedigree.  .

Count Lorenzo di Bella Vita
Capitano Luciano di Bella Vita x Contessa di Bella Vita
Lt. Fawn suri fiber male/pet/4H or FFA
DOB:  10/17/09
ARI# 31754743
 
Gorgeous suri male, covered with locked, lustrous light fawn fleece.  Individual locks throughout the fleece, including his topknot.  Full suri beard.  He is by our Luciano, son of Captain Morgan, and out of Contessa, an Epic/Sierra female, making her a full sister to our stunning herdsire Sparticus.  Lorenzo took a 5th place at GWAS 2010, his only show.  We just don't have enough room in our trailer to take every animal, so our suris tend to stay home.  They are one of our best kept secrets!  Lorenzo has been gelded, so we have done that work for you.  He is well halter trained and easily leads so would make a nice prospect for 4H or FFA or for the fiber artist who wants his/her own fleece supply. 
 
Show Wins:
6th (out of 10) - 2010 GWAS.  One of the youngest in the class wth stiff competition from Park View, Windy Hill, Eagle Valley, Windrider Ranch. We thought this was a respectable showing for his 1st and only show. 
 
PRICE:  $300 - very nice, already gelded suri male

Sire:  Sunny Mesa's Taos

DOB:  10/22/04    Color:  Medium Brown    ARI# 1355727
 
Solid colored, dense fleece.  No fading or vicunya pattern.  Grows very long staple length each year and has excellent full body coverage.  His sire, Sunny Mesa's Taos, is a 4 time Color Champion and son of Peruvian Presidio, a Caligula son.  Tucker has been shown with a few ribbons to his name.  His first show was the level 5 2005 Great Western show in Denver, CO.  He was smallest and youngest in his large class of 13 animals, yet took home a 4th place ribbon under Dr. Julio Sumar because of his staple length and fineness of fleece.  Tucker's fleece took home the second place ribbon out of 5 fleeces at the 2005 ABR Fall Festival, and Tucker himself took home the second place ribbon in his halter class.  Tucker's cute face can be seen gracing the cover of the 2005 fall edition of Alpacas Magazine.  Easy, quiet personality.  Good pet quality male.  Halter trained, has been shown.  Could be easily trained for obstacle course.
PRICE:  $250 - already gelded so that part is done for you. 

Duramax di Bella Vita
DOB:  8/11/05
ARI:  1355796
 
This boy is already gelded and ready for the fiber artist or 4H/FFA person. He would have been in our breeding program except for his white socks on his front legs.  His fleece is to die for - dark, rich brown in color, solid in color through his blanket, neck and upper legs, fine and lustrous.  His fleece took bue ribbons at the Suri Symposium and GWAS shows spin off competition and won the Judge's Choice award in spinoff competition at GWAS.  He has a quiet, gentle nature so is easy to handle.  Halter trained and gelded, he is ready for his new home without any further "work" or cost.  
 
PRICE:  $500 - already gelded, award winning fleece producer
 
SA Peruvian Earl Gray
Silverado x Ebony Empress
DOB:  6/30/07
ARI: 30951310
Lt. Fawn gelded male - fiber male, also would be good as a 4H alpacas, obstacle course alpaca, or as a pet/companion male 
 
Earl Gray is out of a silver sire and true black dam.  I thought he was going to be gray when I named him, but alas, he remained light fawn but definitely with a gray hue to his fleece.  He is nicely conformed and has a great personality.  But at Bella Vita, he did not make herdsire row, thus was gelded.  So, he is ready to be a 4H, obstacle course male, pet quality/companion male, or a fiber male for the fiber enthusiast.  He has a gentle personality, lives quietly with several other males, and is halter trained.
