Per Dr. Norm Evans skin biopsy results: Density: 85.5 follicles/sqmm Secondary/Primary ratio: 15.5/1 Secondary fibers average 16.3 microns Primary fibers average 22.7 microns Dr. Evans notes that these numbers offer a 'strong genetic trait' that is passed on to offspring. Hero is in the upper 0.5% of all alpacas tested for density. He is carrying on the legacy of grandsire El Nino, cousin Michelangelo and sire Francisco. We're very excited about our latest acquisition from elite breeder, Heather's Acre. Accoyo Hero rounds out our herdsire breeding strategy. He is conformationally correct and carries an extremely dense, high frequecy crimp, matchstick bundling and uniformity throughout the fleece from head to toe. If you're taking home blue ribbons in 2008 Level 5 white classes you must be the complete package and Hero is exactly that. The full Accoyo males in Hero's pedigree include Caligula, El Nino, Vengador, Accoyo Alexander and Accoyo The Last Don. Just as important are the females - Sunipani, Astillero, Pucara, Accoyo Candy, Accoyo Starburst and his blue ribbon mom, Miss Peruvian Accoyo Morning Star. Great genetics, handsome young male, future herdsire! Check out his performance in the ring as a juvie. This boy wins in white - and in some tough competitions. The key to this male's prepotency is the fact that he is the culmination of continuously improved alpacas from the best of the best bloodlines. It takes a focused breeding program and a lot of patientence to create a male of this caliber. You have to continually breed the best next generation males to the best next generation females.
