Sandoval, first cria from Marisol of PVA X Gambini of PVA is TB and truly lovely. Fleece is bright with luster - soft as silk, nicely structured. Lots of fiber on head, beard, neck and legs. Sandy has a great disposition. Inquisitive, quiet, pleasant to handle. Gets along well with others. Impressive results in the show ring. Judges comment on his silky, soft hand and high luster. We think the soft hand, good density, consistent lock structure and VERY nice luster will be a winning combination on this male. We're already plotting various pairings on and off our farm! First breeding was to our blue-ribbon winning "Velveteen's Bristol-Cream" – a medium brown with white face which produced a very nice, totally solid color Bay Black male cria, "Halahuni." This animal is so nice looking we repeated the breeding. Sandy X Bristol-Cream (TB X MB) produced BB male 9/21/11 we named Halahuni. Halahuni has bred his first females. Sandy X This is Ruthie! (TB X TB) produced TB female 8/22/12 we named Famke. She looks great. Sandy X Magic Rumor (TB X MB) produced TB female 9/8/12 we named Kismet. She too looks great. Sandy X Bristol-Cream (TB X MB) produced DB female 9/17/12 we named Rubicon. White blaze on nose; fabulous girl. Sandy X Merrielle (TB X LF) produced a big, precocious LF male 8/9/13. Sandy X This is Ruthie! (TB X TB) produced a perfect conformation, knock out DRG male 8/23/13. (first DRG for us!!!) Sandy X Balboa's Maruca (TB X LF) produced a very striking MB male 9/18/13. We love you Sandoval! Your babies are the bomb! You can purchase Sandoval of VA for a song. Make us an offer and he's yours. He is a GREAT animal with lovely progeny, a terrific disposition. We encourage you to take a look, meet him, make us an offer, take him home.

Dam: Merrielle of PVA

Light Fawn - Balboa sire!

Merrielle of PVA

SuriOpen (Female)Light Fawn
AOA# 31724241DOB: 8/12/200915 yrs
Merrielle is precocious and bright. She has gorgeous locks, luster, conformation, consistency. Her fleece is a pretty light fawn with very uniform color. She won 4th place at the 2010 International Alpaca Odyssey and 2nd place at 2010 Alpacamania. Merrielle is an excellent production female. Bred to Sandoval of VA, our True Black herdsire, Merrielle delivered (surprise!) a Light Fawn male cria with VERY fine, very nicely locked fiber. "Crosby" is strong and should be considered for a breeding program. Merrielle is a terrific dam and ready for your breeding program. Or if you like, we can breed her as part of the consideration. Don't hesitate to come by to meet her and see her first offspring. We're sure you'll be impressed. This young, elegant Balboa daughter will be an excellent addition to your program for both breeding and fiber production.

Description

Crosby is Merrielle's first cria out of Sandoval of VA. We were surprised he's light fawn given Sandoval is blue/black True Black, and Merrielle's sire is Balboa, also black. But on the dam's side is plenty of light fawn, so there you have it. Crosby may have the genetic wherewithal to produce gray with all of that black and fawn background. Structurally his fiber is finer than we've seen. It's so fine it has a "fly-away" characteristic, but it is all composed into tiny, perfect pencil locks. Luster is very nice. Facially, his lips and eyes are dark, and the shape of his head a pleasing "suri" head. His stature and proportions are very good. He's healthy and strong and hasn't exhibited any poor behavior. This male could go places with you. Snap him up!
