Hidden Hill Peruvian Dually is our home-bred and born 2009 White Huacaya Male Color Champion at AAA Futurity. He followed that up with the 2009 White Male Huacaya Color Champion at MAPACA. What more could one want? Well, how about winning Judges' Choice at MAPACA? He's done that, too. In fact, the three times his fleece showed, he took championships and the Judge's Choice. However, with the Futurity championship, Dually has met the best of the west, east and all the rest and he has come out on top. Now, when he took those halter class championships, some very big names placed behind him. We generally do not drop names, but the second place finisher in Dually's class at Futurity happened to be Accoyo America Road Warrior. Is Dually a fluke? Well, his two full brothers are excellent examples that that is not the case, and we can even add that the histograms from offspring of the one other proven full brother are almost identical to those offspring sired by Dually. We are seeing AFDs in the 13-14 range and SD compression below 3 rather consistently! We are seeing quite a few 2-handle SDs among his offspring, and that makes us very excited. This boy is white-hot, with a fleece that is elite among the elites, extreme type, excellent conformation, bite and bone. His fleece show scorecards have always shown perfect or near-perfect scores for fineness AND density. What we particularly like about his fleece is the organization approaches that of a top-quality merino, in that the fleece holds together in a high wind, and the matchstick bundles are discreet. Over time, Dually is holding onto an excellent staple length, not something normally associated with an animal that is also holding fineness. We now know that Dually can throw his type and his elite fleece qualities and does so consistently. Dually generally has produced color when bred to color -- okay, the very beautiful Cinnamon's Sugar is the lone exception to date. For those of us that want white, well, he does that, too. Five of his offspring have taken banners thus far, in colors ranging from white to black! How prepotent is this line? Dually offspring all carry his excellent type and fleeces, well, here are some stats: Dually Honored: 13.3 AFD, 2.8 SD, 21.0 COV, 100% CF Bella Luna: 13.3 AFD, 2.5 SD, 19.1 COV, 0.1% >30 Dually Noted: 14.2 AFD, 3.1SD, 21.5 COV, 100% CF Starshine: 14.8 AFD, 3.4SD, 22.8 COV, 0.7% >30 Bling Bling: 15.5 AFD, 4.0SD, 24.5 COV, 0.9% >30 Present Perfect: 16.8 AFD, 3.5SD, 20.5 COV, 100% CF Parasol: 17.5 AFD, 3.4SD, 19.5 COV, 0.6% >30 Truly, this is a unique line, and it is dam-driven -- if you know what that means. Sure, Caligula is in his pedigree, but his granddam and his own dam are driving this bus!

We call Peony "Little Flower" -- always have and always will. But when you look at all the famous "P's" in her name, Plantel and Pachacuti, we needed a P name for her. Little Flower is a very proven female, and is a great dam. She even produces, when bred to Dually, that rare "pattern" that gray breeders seek out, which is the topline of light fawn in an otherwise white fleece. And yes, her daughter was bred to gray and produced a gray offspring. To be honest, I have not got any current adult images of Little Flower but she is one fearless alpaca and, if she senses a threat, she takes point along with our LGDs! She is 7/8 Accoyo but that is not why we have her on our foundation herd list. She is there because she is a great dam whose offspring are quite amazing. We are planning to breed her to our fawn Dually son this fall, if timing is right!
