Stirling Ridge Alpacas

WOW! 9 LB. CLIP with a 20 MICRON BLANKET

Diomedes' VANORA of Stirling Ridge

ARI# 31414920   D.O.B. 9/19/2008  (4 yrs)  (Due Date: 9/4/2013)

Huacaya, Female (Bred), Unproven | White

1/2 Peruvian, 1/2 Bolivian

This girl is my definite favorite for many reasons. She is now bred to Snowmass Snow Legend and we are super excited about this match. Snow Legend holds a 21.6 micron at 8 years of age! Her higher price reflects our estimation of her and the cria she carries (i.e., she's a keeper!)

Vanora took the BLUE in her age group for the 2010 AOBA National Spin-Off. Her 2 year histogram shows why: 17.2 3.5 20.7 CF 100%, Curve 47. Her 3rd year clip was 9 1/4 lbs. of 20 micron blanket! Fine micron with a heavy shear weight adds up to density. Sometimes I secretly wish she were a stud!

We used Robyn Kuhl from Coarse Broads and the NAAFP cooperative to sort our fiber. Vanora scored a 9 for brightness and a 9 for uniformity, an 8 for density, and had a high secondary to primary ratio. Anything above 7 is above average.

Vanora has presence, size, attitude, beautiful conformation, fabulous, lustrous, crimpy fleece. She's out of our best, Kupcake, and gorgeous sire Accoyo America Diomedes who leaves his signature "look" on his kids.

Vanora is at the top of what this farm has produced. She has bright, bundled, high frequency crimp just like her papa. This fleece is what we're aiming for. My personal farm favorite.

Of course we always offer reproductive and live birth guarantees.
