Sunny Acres' Helene by Apollo

Color Genotype: Ee Aa2, non-grey Alpaca Palace's Z's Copper Penny is absolutely gorgeous—an eye-catching female with depth of color, style, and a pedigree that speaks for itself. Her sire, Sunset Hill's Zagato, truly needs no introduction. As the 2019 Futurity Dark Huacaya Herdsire of the Year and 2019 Futurity Dark Mixed Get of Sire Champion, Zagato has made a lasting impact on breeding programs nationwide. He has produced countless champion and Judges’ Choice-winning progeny from coast to coast, and Copper Penny is yet another example of the quality he consistently stamps onto his offspring. Her dam, Snowmass Everlasting Treasure, is a 4X Champion who brings an exceptional Snowmass foundation to this pedigree. With the elite influence of Snowmass Royalove and Snowmass Everlasting Paramount, she carries genetics known for producing lasting fineness, uniformity, and coveted fleece architecture. As a proven breeder, she reliably passes these traits forward—producing offspring that rank in the top 5% EPDs and regularly earn banners in competitive show rings. With this kind of powerhouse lineage, Copper Penny embodies the best of both worlds: elite Snowmass maternal genetics and Zagato’s undeniable prepotency. She represents the kind of female capable of elevating any breeding program through both performance and production.
