Marylu is a beautiful true black daughter of the renowned herdsire Dark Shaddow. We purchased her unproven at 16 months old and she proved herself to be the best investment Blue Star Alpacas has made. Marylu took 3rd place in a class of 8 at the North American Alpaca Show 2006 (the only time she was shown). Marylu's first breeding was to Snowmass Nova (true black herdsire) and resulted in Blue Star's Marian, another true black beauty who won a blue ribbon at NAAS 2008 and a red ribbon as NAAS 2009. Marylu's second cria was sired by the legendary Sinopsis Nocturna (also a true black herdsire). This bay black male, with perfect conformation, gorgeous typey head, and fine crimpy fleece was promptly named Blue Star's Paragon Son of Sinopsis. He won a 4th place ribbon at NAAS 2010 in a class of 9. Marylu's 3rd cria was sired by Jetson (another true black herdsire) and, while we understandably hoped for another true black cria, this one came out beige! Blue Star's Davin is conformationally perfect, just like his siblings, with a very dense, bright and very fine crimpy fleece. Marylu has proven to be the ideal production female. She breeds easily, delivers unassisted, is a terrific milker and a most attentive Mom. She passes on her perfect conformation, beautiful head, and dense fleece. She has a calm disposition and is easy to handle. Because our farm is filled beyond capacity, Marylu is currently open.

Description

Blue Star's Marian is a truly gorgeous true black girl out of our star female, Marylu, and the renowned true black herdsire, Snowmass Nova. Even from a short distance, it was nearly impossible to tell mother and daughter apart --- they looked that much alike! Just like Marylu, Marian displays perfect conformation and a perfectly typey head, but Marian also bears the stamp of Nova beautifully, with her fine, deep black, very dense fleece. Marian showed at NAAS 2008 at 7 months of age and took 1st place in a class of 16. In 2009 at NAAS, she got as close as a 1st place "sandwich", but the other alpaca got 1st and Marian got 2nd. We were thrilled, nonetheless! Being a real beauty with terrific bloodlines, we arranged Marian's 1st breeding to CCNF Royal Ring of Fire in 2009. In July 2010, she single-handedly delivered a beautiful female cria, Blue Star's Irene. This fiery little girl is dark fawn like her sire and also carries his very fine, very crimpy, and, thanks to both parents, extremely dense fleece. With Irene, Marian has given us the most perfect alpaca to date on our farm and has shown herself to be a perfect Mom (an excellent milker and very attentive to her cria). Marian is easy-going, peaceful, and very easy to handle. She has good strong bone and a perfect bite. As Blue Star Alpacas has stopped breeding, Marian is currently open.
