Melody Lane Peruvian Maraca

Alpaca, Huacaya, Open (Female) | Light Brown

AOA #31718714 | DOB: 7/13/2010 (14 yrs)

Sire: Lancaster's Highland Chieftain

31718714<--ari-->Light Fawn<--color--> BIG NEWS!! Chieftain returned to the PAOBA Breedes Showcase with four offspring that took blue ribbons and TWO Championship banners! In 2009 Chieftain was the Color Champion at the PAOBA Breeders Showcase...and Judge's Choice! With a Color Champion in brown...the oldest one in the championship class...and a Reserve Champion in fawn...the youngest, Chieftain demonstrated he has color, fineness, and density covered. Did we mention he was also the Get of Sire winner...go Chieftain! Another Blue. Chieftain has a strong, square frame with soft, bright fiber everywhere. Want crimp? He has it from his top knot literally down to his knees! His dam is our finest fibered colored female and his sire is the legend-in-the-making Six time Color Champion Peruvian Lancaster. What a great match-up this was for color and fiber! Chieftain's numbers from his 2007 histogram are MOST impressive, and even more impressive is his ability to maintain those wonderful fiber stats. Chieftain has earned Blue ribbons and Banners as a juvenile, yearling, and mature male. With seventeen Blues he has been judged by just about everyone and all agree...this is one awesome male. Chieftain has proven his ability to maintain his outstanding fleece characteristics even as a breeding male. During the Spring 2009 show season, he added two Color Championships (PAOBA and MAPACA), one Reserve Color Championship (Nationals), and the Judge's Choice Award at PAOBA. Judge Mike Safley compared him to a juvenile for the Championship at MAPACA and declared him the finest in the class. What a great compliment for a three year old! This is a herdsire you will want to breed to both your dark and light colors for fineness, density, and crimp. Judges put him at the front of the line for his combination of fineness and density. Isn't that what it's all about? ADD ANOTHER BLUE IN 2011: Chieftain placed first once again at MAPACA...this time in the fleece show. No wonder. His fourth histogram was almost iden<--description-->

Description

This year Maraca produced a total fleece weight of 6.3 pounds. Her raw fiber is sold and gone till next shearing season. Her yarn and roving is available in a small amount and is so soft and buttery it competes with her dam, Golden Goose. 2016 Buckeye Alpaca Halter Show under the judge of Sharon Loner in the show ring brought Maraca a Blue Ribbon. Fiber that is sustainable. Proving a point to the judges in the show ring that older alpacas carry the genetics to keep on giving to their offspring. Daughter to Lancaster's Highland Chieftain - Melody Lane Peruvian Maraca offers a lineage and history of high end quality. Maraca carries the genetics of PPPeruvian Design (Peru), Spinners Dream Nina Roche, 5 Peruvian Capuccino (Peru), CPeruvian Tanya (Peru), 588 Peruvian Lancaster, and 6Peruvian Conan (Peru). Daughter of HAA Peruvian Golden Goose, Maraca's dam needs no introduction as she stands next to none with her lineage and history of winning offspring. HAA Peruvian Golden Goose is consistent with passing fiber that is fine, long staple and has an oily handle to it. Lineage of 5Peruvian Camelot (Peru), HAA Camalots Triumphant Son, 5Peruvian Fantasia (Peru), Peruvian White Out (Peru), PLF Christmastime, PPPeruvian Springtime (Peru). Between the sire and the dam Maraca is blessed with the complete package and her recognized winnings are proof. Maraca, has deep brown coloring with a strong maroon overcast making her fiber a color that is very desirable, hard to achieve and looks like red velvet as she moves. Her crimp is tight and small and well over 4 inches in staple length with tons of softness. She is large boned and walks regally on halter. Maraca has achieved many awards but we are especially proud of the 2013 AOBA Nationals Spinoff in Denver Colorado. Melody Lane Maraca was honored with the only Blue Ribbon and High Color Score Ribbon for the Huayaca Class. All entries were judged by 4 judges instead of the usual 1. All judges had to agree on winners before ribboning. There were over 200 entries for this competition. Melody Lane Maraca is ready to start her breeding program and is looking for a farm who is serious about improving and breeding for high quality fleece. A free breeding to one of our herdsires is offered at time of sale.
