Chiquita Bandita is owned by Tuccillo Farm Alpacas in Chesterfield, New Jersey and she's offered here exclusively as a part of The Secret Meadow program of Close-Knit Alpacas. She can be purchased individually OR as part of an outstanding custom or coordinated package, and at an "unspeakable" price! Chiquita is a flashy looking, half Bolivian, half Chilean dam with a rich brown fleece and sharp white markings to help her stand out in a crowd. Her sire is Acero Markas La Paz 531, a dark fawn stud imported from Bolivia and sire of no fewer than 22 ARI registered offspring (13 females). Chiquita's dam is a daughter of Blackthorn HST G463, another import, but this time from Chile. Blackthorn's true black color, combined with Chiquita's dam's light silver grey color indicate that Chiquita is chocked FULL of "grey producing genetics." For anyone looking to produce silver and rose greys in their program, Chiquita Bandita will make a wonderful selection. Chiquita is a proven dam who, with nine ARI registered cria to her credit, has demonstrated all the reliable traits one looks for in a foundation dam. She's "a good breeder," says farm manager, Shirley Vaughn, "and has easy deliveries and unassisted births...she's the boss," adds Shirley, and "The Mom." When I asked Shirley what one word best describes Chiquita, she said, "Maternal." Excellent! "Yeah, she's a good mother," confirms Shirley. Three of her offspring are also on this sales list, so take a look at HANDSOM ESS IMPACA, JACKSON OF TUCCILLO FARM & LUKE QUITA! As far as temperament and handling, Shirley also tells us Chiquita has a "good temperament," and does well with haltering, leading and cooperating with herd health procedures. Chiquita Bandita is obviously getting older, but she's still got years ahead of her and can offer some uncommon genetics to any quality colored breeding program. Make Chiquita Bandita your next addition to your production herd today - you will be glad you did!
