When he saw Bolero in his 12th fleece on May 11th, 2008, he said, "I've hauled some of the best older males in the business all over the country, and none of them had a fleece anywhere near as nice as this!" - Carol Karsten, Hidden Hill Farm, (breeder of 2009 White Male Futurity Champion ’Dually’), asked when she saw Bolero’s 11th fleece, “What cria is this from?” She refers to Bolero as ‘unique’, and booked four females to him.

Description

Far prettier than her pictures, the owner's circumtances have created an opportunity for the discerning alpaca breeder to own this lovely female at an exceptional price. This Grand Master - Royal Fawn granddaughter "reigned over our pastures like a queen", says her owner. At eleven, Lluvia has a 'regal bearing', plus a very dense fleece with attractive crimp and great consistency. Like true nobility, Lluvia has a gracious demeanor, and is a pleasure to have on the farm. Pedigree: One of the 'superstars' - SuperNova - came from the same cross as Lluvia: a Royal Fawn son on a Grand Master daughter! A top herdsire for Cas-Cad-Nac until his untimely death, SuperNova left his mark on their herd. 50% Accoyo and 50% Alianza, Lluvia produces crias with the Accoyo type and Alianza quality fiber. Most have heard of the Accoyo breeding program, famous for the big-framed, heavy boned alpacas typical of that line, along with dense fleeces. Fewer have heard of the Rural Alianza Co-op that has long been selectively breeding alpacas for their ability to produce commercially useful quantities of fine, uniform fiber year in, year out in the harsh climate of the Andean Altiplano. Lluvia took a ribbon in a very large, competitive class at the North American Alpaca Show in April 2002. She is solid and correct, has a proud carriage and an easygoing personality. The females of her line are very hardy, preferring to stay out in all weather. She is an easy keeper who breeds and births easily and has ample milk. Her cria are large, typey, crimpy, soft and dense. She has, and throws, a high amplitude crimp style. Arlington, her light fawn ribbon winning 2005 cria sired by Riddick, had a micron of 22 at age 2 and is standing at Spruce Ridge Farm. Offspring: 2008 - white male, sired by Peruvian Lancaster. Dreamwood Peruvian Fire Marshal, is a white male with super soft, high amplitude crimp, great coverage, bundling and consistency. 2009 - Fire Marshall was so nice, the breeding to Lancaster was repeated - resulting in a white female. Dreamwood Independence is a gorgeous alpaca, with a dense, super soft fleece. 'Indy' has a high frequency crimp organized into long bundles - with an AFD of 17.88! 2010 - white female, sired by Calidad Legacy's Baudelaire. This cria has great fiber, and personality, too. 2011 & 2012 - Lluvia was held open due to her owner's personal situation, and has no known breeding issues. Can include a free breeding to Maple Brook Bolero in 2013!!! Note: This alpaca is brokered by Inti Alpacas, llc for the owner. Please contact Inti for information, an appointment to view Lluvia, or to make an offer.
