WRINKLED SKIN GOLDSTAR SON!!

GOLDSTAR'S ZOLTAR

Goldstar's Zoltar is the son of Lazy G's Accoyo Goldstar. Goldstar has won 20 Get of Sires with 3 of them at Nationals, 3 at The Futurity, and 1 at the Suri Network All Suri Fleece Show. Goldstar has been taking his great Full Accoyo genetics and passing them on to his offspring to create champions since at least 2012 when he won the first of his 19 Get of Sire championships.

Goldstar’s sire is the great Rockstar making him the grandson of the outstanding imported Accoyo herdsire Torbio. That lineage of males is known for consistently producing progeny with beautiful conformation and with fleeces that are fine, dense, nicely locked, and lustrous. That line is definitely prepotent. That prepotency is exhibited in Zoltar. Zoltar has those attributes and to insure that he will be a densely fleeced alpaca, he was born with great folds of skin on him that is commonly called wrinkled skin. Yes, wrinkled skin!

Zoltar's dam Zarina has great genetics in her pedigree, too. It's a wonderful mix that includes some great Accoyo herdsires in Inca, Bruxo, MacGyver, Uribe, and Accoyo Gold. Her first son by USA Peruvian Jaguar was excellent. He had the misfortune to be born the same month as our Black Beau's Comet and Comet was spectacular. Her 3rd male cria was 1st in a competitive juvie class of 6 at the 2019 AOA Nationals at age 7 months. He was sired by Micah. Her sons show Zarina is an excellent producer as she has had 3 really nice crias sired by 3 different males. Based upon genetics, the AOA has given Zoltar estimated EPDs and they are good. You can check the EPD rankings out by clicking on the EPDs link. A sample from his 2019 shearing has been submitted for accurate EPDs and look at that histogram! Wow! Those are excellent stats!

Zoltar has had solid results in the show ring. He had a fiber break as a juvie and because of that, he showed mostly as a shorn yearling. He has had nothing but blue ribbons in his previously shorn halter classes. He's been considered for Color Championships, but he has yet to break through with a banner. He showed well in walking fleece competitions including a 3rd place finish in a strong class of 7 at the 2019 AOA National Show. He has finally win a banner. A CC at the 2019 Suri Network's All Suri Fleece Show.

While wins at shows are nice, we are more concerned about the crias he'll sire after all this showing is done. We feel confident he'll sire really nice ones. A number of Goldstar sons are now the ones winning the Get of Sires at the shows like AOA Nationals and The Futurity. If Zoltar is like his dad Goldstar, who didn't have but 1 RC banner in his show career, and then later went on to win 19 Get of Sires because of his outstanding offspring, then we'll be happy. We have confidence that Zoltar will be an excellent herdsire since he is loaded with champion genetics!

We proudly co-own Zoltar with Chris & Jess Fredericks of Whistling Pines Ranch!
