Description
When we began Storybook Alpacas we were told to start with the best. Carmeltina, a full Peruvian, Pendragon of Peru daughter, one of our first animals, came to us with multiple championships and bred to Snowmass Golden Seal. She is magnificent with beautiful fleece and an extraordinary elegance we have not seen in any other animal, all complemented by her gentle personality. Soft, dense, consistent fleece from Carmeltina has supplied us with a beautiful supply of yarn showing off her Royal Fawn heritage. Attesting to her value are her siblings who have also done well in the show ring and her crias who, with one exception, have all won 1st up to multiple champion and even a judges choice either in the ring or on their fiber.
Carmeltina has gone on to prove herself with show stopping crias, textbook births and has been the perfect vision of motherhood. Her attentiveness to her crias has been amazing and her milk supply - well our vet called her a dairy cow!
Carmeltina, the mother of multi-champions Maia and Manifestation, threw an adorable, light silver grey, pure peruvian daughter out of the now-deceased Brinx in June. She has that coveted big bone and a curious personality that just doesn't quit!
We have truly enjoyed having Carmeltina and her offspring in our herd and now the next chapter of the story has begun. Thank you to Jeff Hull and Nancy Lake of Grey Alpaca Company who have generously purchased Carmeltina for their breeding program and to help with the Alpacas for Asylum effort to save a family from genocide. Watch for her next cria in the ring!
