Gloria's sire, CCF Poseidons Aaron, has dense fiber; butrnwith an incredibly low COV of only14.6%. He has maintained a fineness of 21.8rnmicrons that feels like a silky 20. At his 4th shearingrnAaron only showed 1.9 medulated fibers and only 1.3% fibers greater than 30rnmicron. His curvature is a crisp 35.1 and his 5 inch fiber bundles arernintensely bright, blocky, and uniform. His wonderful-feeling fiber has a comfortrnfactor of 98.7 and a spin fineness of 20.2. Its a silken dream to spin and hisrnblanket consistently sells at $5/oz. to hand spinners!rnrn

Glorias grandsire, Caligulas Accoyo Poseidon, has one of therndensest alpacas tested, and Glorias great grandsire is Drambuie.

Gloria is a proud princess. She is calm, sweet,rnwell-mannered, patient and easy to work with. She is tall, well-balanced, hasrnan elegant walk, and a proud stance. She is ready to breed and would make an outstanding start to a foundation herd. Gloria is offered at this price with a breeding to either MSArnLimoncello or Rico Suaves son Abrazo Royale.

rnLimoncello is a multi-blue ribbon winner (AWE,rnAlpacapalooza, Alpacamania, and Reserve Fleece Champion at the Alpaca Marketplace,rnand he took 2nd at AOBA Nationals Spin-off 2012!) and shown lasting fineness, character,rncrimp, and density.rn

Abrazo Royales fleece won first place CottagernLight at the International Alpaca Odyssey with a perfect spin-off score. Thernjudge said it was the best fleece she had ever spun, and had the other judgesrneach spin a piece of it. His fiber statistics are : AFD 18.4, SD 3.5, COV 18.8,rnand %>30mc of only 1%.His sire, DDF Rico Suave maintained 17 micron to agern10 and his dam, DDF Bobbi Anne has maintained 16 micron in advanced age.
