Smokey's Peruvian Caoba
Alpaca, Huacaya, Jr. Herdsire (Male) | Light Fawn
AOA #31535816 | DOB: 9/28/2008 (16 yrs)
Sire: Express's Peruvian Smokey the Bear
31535816<--ari-->Bay Black<--color-->Smokey the Bear is absolutely the nicest male cria born to date on our farm, and we have had some really nice ones in the past, like Tres Cuartas Accoyo Expresso, Smokey's full brother. When Smokey was born we knew we hit the jackpot for color! We are confident that grey and black cria will be the norm with him. Smokey possess the 3/4 accoyo genetics, full peruvian, and is in the dark brown/bay black/rose grey category and yes that is a mouth full but to see him is to love him. Smokey is getting older and more and more grey fleece is creeping into his blanket, making us think of even more color possibilities for his future cria. His fleece is very fine with a superb handle and a bold crimp like his sire's. We are very excited about his colorful future! His offspring are hitting the ground and they are amazing!<--description-->
