Thank you to Prarie Lake alpacas for acquiring 1/2 interest in Maurader. We are excited to announce our ownership of Marauder. Thanks to Alan and Patti Anderson for all of their input! Maruader is a full Peruvian, rose grey- a rare combination!Maruader started out fawn with lighter vicuna type markings, and it appears he is actually a tuxedo rose grey. His fleece is a totally different color on the inside than the outside. Marauder's luster is beautiful, and he has flowing, dancing fleece. Hi sire, Mercury Rising, is a medium silver grey Silver King son out of a top WRSR foundation Rufino daughter.Mercury's color developed fully after he was 6 months old, as he started out with a fawn outer fleece. Marauder's dam, Topkapi, placed very high in large shows and her first cria was a silver grey female "Patches" who won Grey Color Champion at the 2008 Suri Network ALl Suri Fleece Show. Marauder has done well at the shows and has a great show career ahead of him. He was awared Reserve Champion- Grey Males at the 2009 MAPACA Jubilee, then second behind silver grey at the 2009 AOBA National Show. This boy is definately competitive. Marauder has great color and genetics to start your breeding program. Start planning your 2011 breeding program! He has produced 2 rose-grey's this year and one med. fawn Marauder continues to put great luster and lock on each of his cria's. Get your breedings now. UPDATE; 2012 Mapaca Jr. Herdsire of the Year
