2013 DARK FUTURITY HERDSIRE OF THE YEAR 2011 RESERVE FUTURITY HERDSIRE OF THE YEAR 2013 FUTURITY DARK GET CLASS WINNER TOP RANKING MSL AND FW EPD'S Futurity Judges Choice video. Chakotah in 2011 had a son win four Judges Choice awards, (Pucara) Chakotah's Wyuna, and a daughter, Buzz n Hum Layla who won GWAS 2011 Judges Choice. Chakotah ALSO won the Nationals and GWAS Get classes with our Pucara Kahuna, his grandfather, in second both times. His cria won championships and ribbons in many shows all over the country. When we first started our alpaca farm here in the US the first sale we made of our own suris was to Ann and Bill Rogers at CCR Alpacas. We asked Ann and Bill if they would let us know when one of those girl's, Kalina, had her cria and we would consider purchasing it. As it turned out they decided to send Kalina along with several of our own females to be bred to Moon River's Durango, at our sincere urging!!! Jude and I adored Durango. He was a stand out in the show ring winning a championship in all his shows but more importantly to us he had exquisite genetics. Those breedings produced two national Champions for us and several ribbon winners. When Kalina gave birth Ann excitedly called us and raved about the cria. Well we know owners get a bit barn blind about their animals so we asked for pics....man oh man, he looked fabulous. We visited CCR Alpacas soon thereafter and purchased a half share of this boy, Chakotah....at two months of age!!! It's insane, the first time we have been so bold but in the flesh he even looked better than the pics. The Kahuna daughter, Kalina, had produced a knockout cria. Chakotah's performance in the show ring has been exemplary. He exhibits extreme greasy luster, super silky handle, density in thick well defined locks from one end of his sturdy frame to the other and fineness. All with a proud masculine head on a well balanced body. As a mature male his frame is magnificent. Everything a stud male suri should be approaching 10 years of age - head style, frame, chest capacity, and above all great libido and fertility. Was this to be expected from the intial breeding. We hoped so because it was the marriage of genetics from Peruvian Bruxo, Peruvian Uribe, Peruvian Augustina (McGyver's mom), Pperuvian Amador and Peruvian Cadete (Accoyo foundation herdsires of our female herd), Pucara Kahuna and Pucara Allegro who had 37 championship winning cria in Australia of which 17 won Best in Show! The odds were stacked in our favor and are now stacked in yours because there is little room for deviation of outcome with this punch of prepotence. If you have a good female you'll get a great cria with this breeding. Chakotah kids have been wowing them all over the country. They have won championships and Judges Choice Awards in strong company !!! We think he is turning out to be every bit as good if not better than his grandfather Kahuna! The show kids have won championships in both color a

A STUD DONOR FEMALE FOR THE TSSS ET PROGRAM Baja has been one of our sentimental favorites. Just a sweet girl with nothing that fazes her. As a show girl she was well accomplished. Way back then she had a fleece style that was in front of it's time that was not understood. Flat greasy locking that fell in layers representing her fineness and density. She did us proud despite the lack of understanding of the advanced fleece style with a Reserve Championship at the Nationals and a first at the Futurity. But as usual we do not fall in love with show results. It is parentage and production that interest us most and it is these reasons that put her in our ET program. She is sired by none other than Pucara Kahuna. His production cannot be faulted. So many Herdsire of the Year awards that basically is all about the progeny. The dam, NWA Ltd Bakari is a girl we really miss. The influence of her sire Bruxo in the US suri world is way underestimated. We jumped at the chance to buy a daughter way back when we did. She was a light fawn who blazed with luster. Baja has given us four cria that has helped us determine that she is indeed an ET donor.
