ALH Mr. Gold's Monisha   

Light Fawn, 31127813, Full Peruvian

Monisha is a beautiful girl with a lot of character in her fleece. Her fleece has the characteristic density that comes from her lineage. Her fleece from her first shearing came back with the following statistics: AFD 21.33, SD 5.23, CV 24.52, CF 94.59, Staple length 95.00 mm.

Monisha is bred to Vortex, an Accoyo Elite son, who is owned by Alpaca Heights. His cria have all exhibited soft bright fleece. The match-up between Monisha's genetics and Vortex's should be fantastic. The major flaw in Monisha's fleece is her brightness and medullation, so with Vortex producing bright crimpy fleeced cria we're excited. Stayed tuned. She is due June 15th and we are anxiously waiting to see what this breeding produces.

Update: Vortex's first colored offspring has just been born in June 2010 and she's light fawn from a lt. fawn dam! Very bright and fine.

Vortex has his first 7 crias on the ground and they are all exhibiting fine, BRIGHT fleeces which is what we were hoping for! Plan a visit to the farm and get your hands into their fiber. We think you'll be impressed. We purchased Vortex with the intent to breeding FINENESS, FINENESS, FINENESS in our light breeding program that lingers on for many years.

Vortex is a rare Full Accoyo male from Multi-Champion producing parents. We are thrilled to have acquired him from Pleasant Hills Alpacas in Oregon where we had a choice of 3 Accoyo Elite sons to choose from. When Vortex was conceived outside breedings to his sire Accoyo Elite were available at $6000 each. Elite is now closed to outside breedings at Crescent Moon Ranch where he resides. His micron at 10 years of age was an impressive 22.8. You will find lots of references to A
