Suri Land Alpaca Ranch

SLT Deseret   

Bay Black, 831851, Full Chilean

SLT Deseret is a beautiful Bay Black daughter of 2 True Blacks. The great “Diablo” is her sire. She has excellent fleece characteristics and coverage. We purchased Deseret from Stevens Llamatique and Suri Alpacas when she was 10 months old. We call her “Desi” for short.

Desi was bred in December 2003 to “Graycliff Jax”. On November 23, 2004 she gave birth to an absolutely gorgeous Light Beige female cria we named Opalessence because of her gorgeous fleece. Opalessece has great coverage & curly locks that look like she was dipped in butter, and at 10 months of age won 1st place in the September 05 Midwest Alpaca Jamboree, and Color Champion. The Judge referred to her fleece as "Liquid Silk"!

Since Desi appears to pass coloring from the sire’s genetic line to her crias we have rebred her to our famous True Black herdsire “Piacenza”. This produced a beautiful almost carbon copy of Desi except that Scarlet Ohara is true black under her scarlet tips. She is so nice we repeated

Graycliff Jax is listed as a medium rose grey, in person he looks medium silver grey. He has produced several black and grey offspring since beginning his duties as a herdsire. He is co-own by Stevens Llamatique and Wilkins livestock.
