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.

Henrietta Ruth, "Ruthie", has grown into a true beauty who has been a great foundation for our herd. Both her sire and dam are known for their fine fiber, you can see from her fiber stats that she has maintained that fineness as well. She ranks in the top 3-7% of all fiber traits related to fineness in the ARI EPD program. Ruthie's first breeding produced a spectacular little girl with golden fleece in June 2010. Ruthie had such an easy delivery, that she kept eating during labor right up until her little girl was born. She is an attentive mother, and her little one, June Delight, was active and nursing well immediately. June is following in her mom's footsteps, delivering her first cria (a girl) in 2013 who had AFD 14.6 in her first shearing, and a beautiful boy in 2014. We bred Ruthie to our Champion herdsire Lord Tennyson, and were thrilled with their boy, Tennyson's Becket, in June 2011. He has unbelievable presence and has the incredible fleece, conformation, and beautiful head to support the attitude. We were so impressed that we repeated the breeding for a 2012 cria. Tennyson's Arthur looks just like his big brother, and sold quickly. We bred Ruthie to one of our newest herdsires, two time champion Maximus for a fall 2013 cria. They produced a gorgeous little girl, Gillian, who looks a lot like her true black sire. In 2014, Ruthie gave us a true black male, Polar Night, out of fawn champion Polar Ice. Ruthie sells with a breeding and would breed with any of our Champion herdsires for a great cria. Talk with us to decide which would be the right combination for your farm's goals.
