LCA Caden is a 5/8 Accoyo Son of LCA Rico who's breeding are restricted at $7,500.
Lets take a look at the genetic make up of Caden and see what we come up with. His sire, LCA Rico won ever major show from 2005 thur 2007. Rico is a 2 time Champion of AOBA and is also 2 time Champion at the Futurity. Rico's fleece won every major show that it was entered in during 2007. Rico's sire is the famous Inca. So that would make Inca, Caden's granddad.
Now let's look at Rico's dam (who is Caden's grand dam on Rico side). Her name is DDF Accoyo Amore, Amore has produced three Futurity Champions in a row and has won multiple first Place Awards in "Produce of Dam".
Let's now take a look at Caden's dam's side of bloodlines. Her name is Snowmass Golden Glory and her sire is the famous herd sire Peruvian Macgyver who holds the record for number of wins for colored Herdsire of the Year. L ast but not the least is Caden's great grand dam by the name of 5P Golden Locks. She was a big part of Latah Creek's breeding program and has 4 females in the breeding program of Chelsea Farms who bought Latah Creek.
Genetics are one thing; showring wins are another; Look at the 5 color championship banners Caden has won including AWE (2x), Alcapalooza, CABA and TxOLAN. Not to mention 2nd at AOBA and FABA and 3rd AT Futurity 2x.
LCA Caden has proven genetics in his bloodlines, as well as the showring wins which are indicative of the fabulous fleece characteristics carried by this young man. There is no reason why he should not produce award winning alpaca's. His 1st season of crias hit the ground this past summer; and two females of ours took the blue ribbon at PNAA 2013 and again in 2014...what does that tell you!
