| | | Olivia is producing! We knew we took a chance breeding Olivia to our white herdsire, Accoyo America Diomedes, but we really wanted to see the fiber that might be possible. And yes, it is gorgeous. God blessed us with a beautiful fawn female cria, Diomedes Darling, in 2008. The second time around we bred Olivia to El Campeon of Sweet Pines Alpacas for a 2009 cria, adding new bloodlines to our herd. It resulted in another stunning female, albeit a white one. We are confident she could be in the show ring as colored; we are waiting to see if she can compete in the white category.
Olivia is dense with a silky style crimp, very uniform; no doubt great grandsires Bueno and Legacy helped pave the way for Olivia's superb fiber quality. Like her sire and dam, she has coverage down past the toes. Stunning conformation and a truly remarkable head also contribute to making Olivia a lovely alpaca.
Olivia's dam and sire were never shown, but they should have been. We showed her fi | |

| | | El Campeon (Champ) has a luscious medium to dark fawn AWARD-WINNING FLEECE that you can't keep your hands off and a head & coverage you can't keep your eyes off. The first thing you notice about Champ besides his gentle yet confident demeanor is his FULL COVERAGE from head to toe. At further inspection, his SOFT HANDLE, DENSITY, AND UNIFORM CRIMP abound throughout his fleece. And the judges agree. Among Champ's many fleece awards includes a FIRST PLACE at the AFCNA Continental Fleece Show in 2008; judge's comments were that he was "the Clear Winner with very much the higher score, very good staple length, definition and character...good uniformity overall, and a very heavy cutting fleece." In 2007, we sheared an amazing 10 pounds of fiber from Champ, which he topped with 13 POUNDS in 2008. He is also well conformed with an excellent bite, and settled his first female on our ranch at just a month after turning 2 years old.
Champ's dam, Tasha Yar, has maintained an ex | |
