MMR Rosvita   

True Black, 155278, Chilean

One of our first two alpacas purchased, Rosvita as been a good foundation dam for us, producing girls for the past two years.

She has had two crias with our beige Champion herdsire Bonhomme - One black, one dark brown. In fact over her entire breeding history she has produced more black than anything else, which solidifies her place in our breeding program.

Bonhomme was selected as the first herdsire in our breeding program based on his genetics and phenotype and a good dose of hope, to be able to reproduce the black colour of our foundation girls while improving their body style and fleece traits. And he has not dissapointed us! He has been bred to black three times so far, and has produced 2 black and 1 dark brown cria from these matches. We're hoping for this to continue with this year's two breedings as well.

He is also improving general body style as well as crimp and density in our girls and so far all crias have been an improvement over their dam.
