The (sort of) New Kid on The Block

We are happy to announce that we recently acquired half interest in the young Herdsire prospect, Colonial Dimitri, from the good folks in the Rodman family and Colonial Alpacas in Williamstown, MA. Let us be clear: Dimitri is, as they say in the world of sports, “one for the future,” rather than a young male that’s going to make any sort of immediate impact. We were frankly really impressed by him even when he was nothing but a 2 month-old ankle-biter at his dam’s side.

Dimitri is also a relatively known entity, as the product of his dam, CCNF Dorianna — whom the Rodmans purchased from us several years back — and his sire, CCNF Moonraker, who is both a working Herdsire here at CCNF and happens to be the lesser known member of his full sibling-foursome (his sisters Moonbeam, Luna Majesty, and Clair de Lune fill out the rest of that team). The bottom line is that as more of a “pure” Matrix Majesty descendant by virtue of his sire, and without any genetics from that scallywag, CCNF Elixir, floating around in there, he has more future utility within our program than one might assume at a glance, all while also for the most part coming from genetics that we both know how to use and trust. Many thanks to Colonial Alpacas for sharing their special young boy with us!
