Description

Candalero has a lot to offer your females and your breeding program. Candy is an extremely macho and proud Rose Grey herdsire that has proven to pass his dense fleece and excellent fiber character to his cria. The colors of his cria have ranged from rose grey, maroon, & fawn to beige and white. Candalero is a blue ribbon winner for his gorgeous fleece ( at 4 years old! ) and his fleece is always quick to sell. His fleece is fine as he ages, even at 10 years old it makes silky soft yarn! Candalero also has a rare trait called soft rolling skin which is only found in extremely dense animals. I will never forget the day when I first met Candy and I went to feel his fleece and couldn't hardly get my fingers into it! His fleece was the first "berber carpet" fleece I had ever experienced! You will want this quality in YOUR herd! FIBER + COLOR + QUALITY GENETICS = CANDALERO! We are giving a FEMALE GUARANTEE with each breeding to Candy!!! Candy's sire is the famous blue ribbon winner, Excalibur Codi. Candy exhibits the same extreme coverage and phenotype as his sire (not to mention ribbon winning ways!). You can visit Candy's webpage at http://alpacasofalagaesia.com/Candy.htm We have retired Candy from our herdsire lineup. I am leaving this page for informational purposes for his offspring. :D
