Solo (as we call him) is a full Peruvian male. His sire was considered one of the top males imported from Peru by Dr. Julio Sumar. He has a good temperament and is easy to work with. He is seldom the trouble maker, and gets along well with others, even the little boys. His retained fineness cannot be beat. With Grade 3 fiber at 12 years of age—it just does not get any better than that. His daughter, Opal, took a first-place ribbon (out of seven entries) in the 2017 AOA Spin-off competition in Sacramento.

She is one of our favorites. She can be very affectionate at times. But when she is pregnant, everything changes. She is the only alpaca that will come running when I call her by name. She has learned to open the pellet can. She also exhibits the most interesting behavior when looking into a mirror.
