Marius has an amazing fleece style, possibly as good as his very close (3/4 blood) relation, RD Sven. Marius will be well used by us and I have no hesitation in recommending him as a superior breeding alpaca. He is another step on our journey to produce alpacas with the fineness of vicuna and the style of merino.

Bloodline

His sire is Bemersyde Estate Bronson, a very well performed campaigner in the show ring and fleece tent and a very close relation to the multiple Supreme Champion Bemersyde Estate Romeo. Bronson's sire is the National Supreme Champion of his year - Oak Ridge Oliver.

His dam, Rustic Dawn Eponine, is a daughter of Supreme Fleece Champion Rustic Dawn Columbus and very well performed in the fleece tent in her own right including a National fleece class winner. Marius is Eopnine's second cria. Both his siblings (RD Fantine and RD Cosette are broad ribbon winners. Further her full-sister Rustic Dawn Elsa, dam of multiple Supreme Champion, RD Sven. It is a highly productive line.

Marius has retained a great fleece structure, style and length into his 3rd fleece. It is highly advanced and market leading and we have extremely high anticipation for his progeny, especially as there is high performance and currency in his bloodlines to match the depth
