Tokapu is a beautiful large white alpaca with the dense fleece you would expect from a Royal Fawn Granddaughter. She is an excellent Mom with plenty of milk and she has produced several exceptional crias. Her own Mom is still producing at 16 years old! In 2007 she easily delivered a beautiful beige boy out of Accoyo Express who weighed 19.5 pounds at birth. She is calm and polite, but because of her size can be a little hard to handle until she trusts you. She is very loving and attentive to her babies, but has allowed me to handle her babies without a fuss. You truly have to see this animal to appreciate her presence. Since her boy from Accoyo Express is so beautiful I decided to breed her to my Express son Pilgrim. She has always been bred to light colored males in the past so I wanted to see if she could produce the same awesome fleece qualities in color. I was not disappointed. In May 2008, she delivered a spectacular dark fawn girl, with deeply crimped fiber and a very soft hand. I was so happy with the outcome, I decided to repeat the pairing one more time and the result was just as outstanding. She delivered a big medium fawn baby boy who is gorgeous. He had his first shearing yesterday and his fleece brought a chorus of 'oohs' and 'ahhhs' as the fleece fell off.

Every year my shearer remarks on this girl. Still obviously a quality alpaca, who breeds and births easily.
