*Sipan x Mariela

When the opportunity lent itself to getting Marisco from Kay in July of 2002, Jeff and I jumped on it! Like many llama owners, I have always loved the *El Fuerte bloodline. Over the years his offspring have won an an amazing amount in the showring including ALSA National Get of Sire in 1999. Marisco's dam is an *El Fuerte daughter out of a full Peruvian import female named *Mariacha. Mariela is an ALSA Produce of Dam Champion. Marisco's sire is the 2001 ALSA National Grand Champion Medium Wool Male, *Sipan. If you have never seen *Sipan, he is the most awesome male. He is huge, correct and very beautiful (He holds his ROM's in Halter & Get of Sire and is a Halter Champion & Get of Sire Champion in ALSA). Marisco was used by Hinterland to help *Sipan and Mariela win their titles. *Sipan is owned by Hinterland and Stephen & Kim Fritz of Sonador Farms. Offspring from *Sipan have consistently cleaned up in their halter classes and have won the 2003 National Reserve Grand Medium Wool Male & 2006 National Grand Champion Heavy Wool Female titles. To our knowledge he is the ONLY male to ever win Nationals in halter and produce two offspring that also have won.

As you can see, Jeff and I are very excited about Marisco! Nearly everyone in his pedigree is an ALSA Champion. He has a wonderful and willing disposition, OH and he is quite handsome himself. We are actively showing and training him currently. He has already been to nursing homes, collected food for the homeless and much more. Marisco is very laid back and was a bit of a late bloomer but is now all boy!

Marisco's full brother "Mariell" resided in Wayne Rankin's program, but is now deceased. Kay had shown him and he was an ALSA Halter Champion and had his ALSA Halter ROM. Mariell was also the 2003 ALSA National Reserve Grand Champion Medium Wool Male.

We have been very pleased with the llamas we have gotten from Kay Sharpnack. They are correct, beautiful and very sweet. Not only have they done well in halter showing, but they have also been wonderful performance and public relations llamas. We would highly recommend Kay's program and breeding stock to anybody wanting to have really nice llamas in their breeding program.
