Delilah at SBC
Siblings aren't always competing....sometimes they copy each other! Full siblings, Delilah and Commander, each captured their own blue ribbons this past weekend at the Small Breeders Challenge.

Bonecrusher winning at Small Breeders Challenge
Bonecrusher does it again!
Taking the Best of Bred and Owned seems to be a pattern for this young beige male. We are pleased that multiple judges now are remarking on his correct phenotype and incredible fleece. We are also secretly
thrilled that several farms asked to look at him...we hope they keep an eye on him as he matures. So far we have seen nothing but continued improvement as he develops...

AnnaGray with Amy at SBC
Need I say more? A special thanks to Susan over at Pen Cuckoo Alpacas for allowing us to purchase this little gem. What an absolute doll. Also a huge thanks to Amy over at Wyndy Pynes for showing her as things got a tad hectic for us with animals in dual rings.

Outlaw at SBC
Outlaw asked the grey alpacas to step aside in the combined grey class and took home the blue - not often seen with the rose greys! Special thanks to Nueva Dia Alpacas for helping out with pictures here! We were busy taking so many alpacas for pictures that it sure helped having friends step in and help us! This stunning rose grey male is just incredible!

Delilah - Color Champion
Salt Creek had a wonderful show this past weekend and entered the Spring show season with the leading ladies (Hollywood and Delilah) showing the youngsters (Outlaw, Commander, and Bonecrusher) how to bring home the blues....
Delilah took Color Champion (white females) and Hollywood took first in her class (light fawn - unfortunately, not enough entries in lights for a championship round). Delilah rounded up her baby brother, Commander, and they took the blue in the Produce of Dam class.
Bonecrusher took the blue and the purple in Bred and Owned category - taking the Best of Bred and Owned for the Male category.
Commander had a big class and very tough competition and squeaked out a 2nd in the white juvie class - sweet!
Outlaw entered into a combined class as the only rose grey in a large sea of silver grey and was able to hold his own and take a 3rd place. Impressive bunch of greys coming up!
Great show in Neenah this past weekend! Congrats to all the winners and to the Show Committee for putting on such a great show!!!
Hollywood - Star of her class

Outlaw - left side
Please help us welcome Outlaw and Queenie! Spudland Alpacas (from the very tips of northeastern Maine!) have generously let go of two outstanding alpacas so we could add some fabulous genetics to our foundation. We welcome Spudland's Queenie and Spudland's Outlaw to our herd.

Oh yes....after an extremely competitive class...Storm walked out Color Champion....AGAIN!
Judge Jude Anderson chose this complete package over THREE COLOR CLASSES OF YEARLING MALES and awarded Storm the coveted banner...stating that Storm was the winner. Yep...we agree...This is indeed the male you want to obtain genetics from.
He comes from a line of champions (both dam and sire sides) and his siblings are all champions...
Special breeding rate should be locked in before end of 2012. Contact dee@saltcreekalpaca.com for details.
