Our dear Kupcake, first girl we bought, died May 2, 2016. She was a beautiful girl and it won't seem the same on the farm without this old matriarch. The Lord gives, and the Lord takes away, blessed be the name of the Lord! She had a good life and served us very well. We will miss her.
At 16+ years at last shearing, Kupcake has a 23 micron fleece and still is one of our heaviest shearing weights! We recommend breeding her to Snowmass Snow Legend--and her price includes a breeding to your choice of selected studs of which Snow Legend is one.
Kupcake is a favored jewel on our farm. We have two particularly lovely daughters of hers, Vanora and Kenzie, and having them is the only reason we would part with Kupcake. Kupcake was the 2000 CABA Reserve Color Champion.
This is the girl we started our farm with. She's proven herself 6X for us and is an excellent dam, producing some of the best cria in our herd. Her last daughter, Vanora, currently has a 17 micron, 98% CF in her SIXTH year!
100% Bolivian, thick boned, solid conformation, pretty head with dark points, vicuna coloring on legs and underside and heavy, crimpy fleece. She's passed her hefty shearing weights and fleece character down to her cria.
Kupcake is an excellent production female: easy to get pregnant, easy births, attentive mother with lots of milk, thriving cria with excellent weight gain and high IgG scores.

Description
If you are just thinking of starting with alpacas, and want to wade in from the shallow end, here is a sweet girl for you to train on! And she will provide you with fleece. Fiona is tried and true. She's a calm animal and very sweet. She doesn't spit, she doesn't kick, she's easy to halter, she leads well, and loads into the trailer with no problems.
We suggest at her age that she not be bred, but you could certainly try! We are not able to guarantee a pregnancy or live birth.
Fiona has strong Caligula genetics with color in her background. She has given us a white female, Nona, a medium fawn son with grey markings (Wallace), and now her latest beige girl with dark skin (Maisie), so we know she can pass on color to her offspring.
She's one of our favorites in personality: mellow-tempered, sweet-faced, easygoing, and inquisitive. She has a large frame and passes this on to her offspring (Nona, Wallace, Maisie). Exceptionally easy birthing, good milk, laid back mama, healthy, proven. She makes life easy.
Free board for one month, free transport within 50 miles.
