These are very good numbers for a fawn alpaca sire!

Looking forward…

The aim is to produce primary fibers that are so fine as to be virtually indistinguishable from the secondary fibers.

This is an important point.

Primary and secondary fibers need to be increased in number (by selective breeding) in order for the number of follicles per group (expressed as S/P ratio) and follicle density (expressed as follicles per square millimeter) to increase. As follicle numbers per follicle group increase the pressure on the primary hair to perform like a secondary is increased and so they become less and less distinguishable within a staple or lock.

This will increase fleece weight

By reducing primary fiber diameter, ‘guard hair’ is also eventually eliminated.
