Rivanna Peruvian Maximus is a fabulous true black alpaca with a dense, well structured fleece and incredibly solid bone and conformation. This is a boy who won both the Black Fleece Championship and the Halter Reserve Championship at the 2009 VAOBA Expo. With a lineage that includes Peruvian Grand Master and Inca's Ransom, this son of the impressive Evander and beautiful Chase Tavern Rogue has a range of colors in his genetic background. Peruvian Maximus is passing on his incredible fleece and heavy bone structure on to his crias. Our first crias from Peruvian Maximus were born in 2013, and they are fabulous. We invite you to come by and meet them, and consider adding Peruvian Maximus’ incredible genetics to your breeding program.

Ima Joy’s name fits her perfectly. She is a joy to be around and gives kisses freely. Ima’s fleece has lovely small brown spots throughout, with a couple of larger spots to match her pretty face. As her fleece grows out, they get harder to see, but they are there when you shear. Ima’s fleece is also a joy to work with. She has won first place ribbons at the 2008 VAOBA Spin-Off, 2009 AOBA National Spin-Off and 2010 VAOBA Spin-Off. In the 2013 EPD calculations, Ima Joy (and her daughter) ranked in the top 1% of alpacas in percent medullation. Ima gave birth to her first cria in May 2010. Her son Joyful Joyful is a beauty and sold soon after he was weaned. His first shearing at 11 months of age had an average fiber diameter of 16.8 microns! Ima proved herself to be a great mother, with plenty of milk. Her 2011 female cria, Angelica, out of Snowmass Casanova's Arch Angel is a beauty in white. Ima has always been a favorite of the farm, but she truly proved her worth that year, taking on an orphan cria at 6 weeks of age and nursing he and Angelica successfully until they were weaned. All while maintaining good weight gain for both crias and holding her weight steady. Ima Joy delivered a gorgeous boy in October 2013 out of our fabulous two time Champion, Peruvian Maximus. Dante has dense soft fleece, in beautiful bundles of soft, beige. We were so happy with this adorable boy, that we repeated the breeding for fall 2014 and got a gorgeous multicolor male.
