ALMOST PARADISE FARMS BEATRIZ Bea is the foundation of our foundation herd. As soon as I saw her, I knew she was exactly what we were looking for. Her sire is Mr. Roosevelt, who is known for his fine fleece, something he has passed on to Bea. Her spot free fiber is simply yummy; it's super fine, bright and has beautiful crimp, all in an unusual shade of light rose grey. With the curls on her nose and expressive mascara eyes she is one enchanting alpaca. She has been a terrific, attentive mom who has easy births and lots of milk. This is one girl who read the book! She maintains a 24.3 AFD/3.9 SD and 15.9 CV at age 12!!!! BLUE RIBBON PRODUCE OF DAM!!! Bea won 1st Place at the 2012 MAPACA Jubilee - Fleece PRODUCE OF DAM (Bomber and Bea's Knees) Bea can safely be called an impact dam. To date, All of her progeny have been Color Champions! Two of our favorites are: Her 2009 daughter, BEA'S KNEES, is a 5x Champion & 7x Blue Ribbon Winner! Her 2011 son, NS MAGIC FLIGHT is a 3x Champion & Blue Ribbon Winner. Magic is carrying on Bea's tradition as a Champion Producing Stud on our Ranch. Many of his offspring are on our show strings!

Description

BEA'S KNEES I have to tell you were were in shock when Bea delivered a girl! It was just a matter of time and she was definitely worth the wait. She was 18lbs of sassy spunk. Bea's Knees is incredibly dense. It took us 2 hours with a blow dryer to get down in there and get her dry. She has bundles of high frequency, fine crimp that just shines when you part it. Let's see, density, brightness, fineness, crimp....and her momma's eyes. I think I am in love. I will be VERY hard pressed to sell this girl. Imagine what a female of this caliber can do for a breeding program. Beanie will make her debut at the A-OK Blast Off in 2010. And what a debut it was at her first show (level 4) She took the BLUE and the PURPLE in OK. We are thrilled! She is now officially the first female Grey Color Champ of 2010. Little Bea just brought home the 2010 GWAS Color Champion Grey Female Banner!!!! What a great ending to our show season. UPDATE! Bea's Knees is now a 5x Champion!!! Offspring: Bea's Knees delivered her first cria - a stunning BB FEMALE - Mischief is her name and she is as crimpy and fine as her momma! Can't wait to see this one develop! In 2014, Bea's Knees presented us with a handsome modern rose gray male from Orlando Cloud. He is awesome. I have to say my vet couldn't believe the density....she had the darndest time parting his fleece in his ear for a microchip....curls, curls and more curls! In 2020, Bea's Knees gave us a handsome light fawn male.
