'Raz's fleece is a beautiful maroon color and has a wonderful hand with a small, high frequency crimp which spins up into a nice soft, lofty yarn. She has a sweet disposition, even when pregnant, and is an attentive mother.

She has produced a wonderful cria out of every male we have bred her to. Raz's first cria, Calina, was a true black female and sold to Grand River Alpacas.
Now she has been bred to El Nino's Valerian. What a nice mix of genetics.

She was screened for BVDV with the serum neutralization test in January 2006.
