Our very special girl! Rest In Peace!
El Nino's Clarita
Alpaca, Huacaya, Open (Female) | White
AOA #836642 | DOB: 8/1/2002 (22 yrs) (Due Date: 5/18/2020)
Sire: PCA Accoyo El Nino
836642<--ari-->White<--color-->Described by a prominent judge as “the perfect alpaca”, El Nino is the son of Peruvian Accoyo Caligula, All American Alpaca Futurity Herdsire of the Year and AOBA Get of Sire winner, and Peruvian Accoyo Sunipani, two time winner of the AOBA fleece show and Judges Choice of the AOBA fleece show. Of perfect “alpaca type”, El Nino is conformationally perfect, with good bone and dramatic coverage. His fleece is extraordinarily dense and lustrous with crimp and character clear to his belly. His offspring in his first year of production have been spectacular.<--description-->
Dam: Coco Chanel
836642<--ari-->Med. Rose Grey<--color-->Coco was one of our first animals purchased. Besides assuming the alpha female role in the herd, she has produced amazing crias. Both Clarita and our award winning herdsire, Magellan, were her crias. Coco is a medium rose-grey daughter of Pacific Crest’s Camilio, which means she has a dense, fine quality fleece even at the age of seven.
Coco Sold to Crescent Moon and went on to produce many wonderful cria for them, most notably Crescent Moon's Donato.<--description-->
Description
Not Sold, but want her info still on Openherd as she had wonderful cria!
Sadness, Clarita passed away, she had a great life and lived over 19 years! I so loved her and am sad she is gone, but she did have a wonderful female cria in 2020 so we are blessed!
Clarita is our first home raised girl, and what a beauty. The daughter of El Nino, and granddaughter of Camilio, she has all the right genetics. She is a charmer and was a wonderful first cria. We didn’t show Clarita her first year, as we were so new in the business, but on her way back East to be bred, the Lavans, of Chase Tavern Farms offered to show her at MAPACA, where she got 4th in a very large (14) class of yearling white females.
Clarita has produced five spectacular daughters for us and is one of our best production females on the farm. Clarita’s 1st cria Valencia has an awesome fleece with amazing density and brightness and a histogram at 11 months of 16.9 AFD; 3.2 SD; 18.3 CV; & 0.7 %>30u. Her sire is full Peruvian Greybeard so we are hoping for some grey cria from her! Clarita’s 2nd cria, Choco-latte was equally spectacular selling for $27,000 at the 2007 AOBA auction. We were so pleased with Choco-latte we rebred Clarita to Snowmass Nova’s Nuance for her 2007 cria, Dolce-latte, sold to Wooden Valley Alpacas in the spring of 2011. Her recent daughter, Mocha-latte recently sold and her 2012 daughter Clementine sold this year. We just can't go wrong with this gal!
