Oh so many people, close to two thousand have looked at Darlene over the years. If you are one of these people, you may be shaking your head with regret when I tell you that Darlene on 6/14 had the most amazing girl from Twix. Her price was $750 but I can't let her go for that now that she has delivered such an amazing cria. When she's ready, we will definitely be breeding her back to Twix. I wouldn't mind having a male from this pairing.
Darlene is a solid gal. She has great confirmation, crimp, and head to toe coverage. She is an excellent mom with plenty of milk and really watches over her cria. Her first cria, Snowcap 2005, is pure white from a light silver grey sire. Snowcap is super dense, has bundling and crimp. His top knot is full and he also has complete coverage. Milkyway, her 2nd son, born October 06, sire is Paladin's Ricardo. He is a beautiful bay black with black facial features. Black Licorice, her 3rd son, sire LSH Paladin. Then her 4th, also from LSH Paladin is a beautiful medium brown girl born in 09. In '011, she gave birth to a healthy 19.2 son, M & M. His fiber color looks blue/black. Her next offspring was a pairing with Tanglewood's Jazara's Rajah. Oreo, just as his name suggests, is a tuxedo boy! Hard to believe, he is almost a year now. He has a presence out in the pasture with the other crias and knows it at times with an unmistakable herd sire pose.
Darlene is the perfect dam for a newbie because she is so easy going. We don't even put a halter on her to trim her nails. She just stands there. This calm behavior, along with her being a great mom, makes her one of my favorite.
Darlene went 11.5 months to deliver a big baby girl. She is an amazing mom. We are so blessed to have this dam listed as one of our foundation pacas.
