DDF Peruvian Rico Suave -- an excellent example of long lasting fineness. Age 7 Rico's micron was at 17.1, SD 3.3, CV 19.3, %>30 0.4% and age 8, Rico still had a micron of 17.1, SD 3.5, CV 20.5, %>30 0.5, and at age 10 (2010 testing), Rico's micron was 16.6, SD 3.3, CV 19.9, %>30 .05%...WOW! In 2008, a skin biopsy on Rico was done and the results were fantastic, "I found no fibers above 30 microns, which is unheard of, " states Dr. Norm Evans, "This male is the whole package based on my stats. He appears to have every desirable genetic trait that this industry is looking for. As the whole package, Rico Suave tests in the top 1% of near 1800 huacayas that I have tested." This is outstanding!
With his pedigree consisting of 6Peruvian Accoyo Elite and Peruvian Hemingway, you cannot go wrong with a breeding to Rico Suave.
Sadly, Rico Suave passed away last year at age 11.
