2015 Histogram just in AFD 24.3 SD 4.4 CF 92.2 Medulation 5.2 AT 11 YEARS OLD!!

9 Time Champion/Reserve ~ 12 First Place Awards! FULL ACCOYO!
Here is what Amanda VandenBosch had to say when she evaluated him for us this February 2006……
“Overall this male is excellent! He is a strong male with excellent substance of bone. He has a triangular head shape with a broad muzzle and good distance from eye to lower face. He is true to type thru his head and overall proportions, exhibiting fineness, uniformity of character throughout the blanket and excellent density for fineness. True Herdsire prospect!

As you can see from his histograms over the years he is VERY consistent. He sheared 13.9 POUNDS in his 2008 annual shearing. 14.2 lbs in his 2009 annual shearing, 14.8 lbs in his 2010 shearing. WOW. DENSE. 2007 Skin biopsy - Follicular Density of 61; S/P Ratio 11/1 Age 15 mo. (Watts 2006)

His 2008 Fleece (4 years old – D age category) Scored 80.5 points at AOBA Nationals 08; Fineness/Handle 18/20!; Crimp 8/10! Manchu was still winning Fleece Championships at 5 years of age. His 2009 Fleece took Reserve Color Champion!! At 10 years of age - 2014 IAO Reserve Longevity of Fineness Champion!!

Manchu’s progeny exhibit all the qualities of their sire. Of the 98 progeny on the ground, 50
have been shown, 21 of those have bannered!!! Almost 1/2 that show, WIN!!

Outstanding female crias swept 4 SHOWS. 3 Shows in A ROW fall of 2010 winning Reserve and Color Champion at EACH SHOW! AlpacaMania 2010; Gold Country Gathering 2010; National Elite 2010 and in 2011 the California Classic. Excellent males sweep white in 2012 California Classic; 2013 IAO Cottage and 2014 Gold Country - WOW!

MRN Arica

Huacaya, Female, Proven, Beige, 3/8 Peruvian

ARI# 31823784 | DOB: 10/5/2009

Arica has grown up to be a lovely girl with fine, consistent fleece characteristics that the judges have admired. Check out her EPDs! She brings good potential for color genetics from her fawn sire, an Alpamayo Studmaster son, and from her brown dam from the Studmaster program. She comes with a breeding to any of our males, or you can use the breeding for another female.

For her first breeding we took advantage of her excellent consistency of fleece and bred her to our outstanding herdsir...

Description

Sun Tzu is a mellow male with outstanding fleece and conformation. His sire, Derwydd Accoyo Manchu, is the only alpaca I know that has to be shorn twice a year. This male continues his sire's fantastic fleece characteristics--he is DENSE, he is FINE, and he has beautiful, long, fine bundles of high frequency crimped fleece. His maternal grandsire, also Sun Tzu, is a son of the Canadian legend, Jolimont 2 Peruvian Alpamayo, who carried a 22 micron fleece at 11 years of age!
Sun Tzu is a medium sized male with a beautiful head and his dam's attractive facial features. Our veterinarian points out that Sun Tzu has a perfect bite that is worth breeding for! He is so sweet and easy to handle, this is one of the characteristics passed on by his sire. Several judges have commented on his knock-out fleece--his is always the finest fleece in the class. (The histogram listed is from 2015 at age 17 months). He's on his 3rd fleece now, and it is incredible--fine, crimpy bundles, wonderful handle, and DENSE!!!. Really, he could be shorn twice a year like his sire, to keep him comfortable in hot or humid conditions.
He has the potential to pass lots of color, since his maternal grandmother is medium brown and his grandsire is light fawn.
So, buy him if you like, but I'd be perfectly happy to keep this guy on my stud row!
