Isabelle, being well conformed with a solid frame passes this feature to her cria. What we have found with her is the ability to carry that great frame into the breeding yet captures the outstanding fleece characteristics of the sire she was paired. She births unassisted, carries a good supply of milk seen in rapid cria development, and is a very attentive mother.
Following are some examples of the fine cria Isabelle has produced: Wiyaka's staple length and density are the first characteristics we see in her fleece followed very quickly by architecture as soon as you part her fleece. Looking further, we found that the fleece character in her blanket carries throughout her fleece from her topknot to her tail to her toes. There is no halo when looking down her side and front. When you step back and review her overall confirmation, we are impressed with a uniform frame, good teeth set, and her stature. She has a very calm disposition that is a pleasure to be around. 1st shearing AFD=20.2 SD=5.4 2nd shearing AFD=23.2 SD=5.9 Crescent Moon Velocity cria.
Ozela's first impression comes when we hold him and the pleasant handle of his fleece and this continues as we open the fleece and see the architecture that is born out through his histogram with an First shearing histogram 1st shearing AFD=18.7 and SD=4.4 Patagonia's Mondavi cria.
Heyun, recently born, was stunning due to the bright, rich black fleece that already demonstrates the whorls we have seen in some of our best. As her fleece develops we see the bundles so prevalent in dense and fine alpacas. Patagonia's Mondavi cria.
