Ghiradella is an exquisite and rare full Peruvian (1/4 Accoyo) bay black example of the use of Genetic Color-Matching to bring dark colors to fine Peruvian Bloodlines with obvious dense, finely crimped fleece and tight lock structure. Her conformation and looks are consistent with her exceptional dam, Peruvian Fawna and her sire, our blue ribbon winning, Royal Fawn's Peruvian Barolo.
She is a granddaughter of PPPeruvian Royal Fawn 6014, the only light fawn Accoyo every exported from Don Julio Barreda's herd. According to Julio Barreda, Royal Fawn ranked as one better than he had ever produced at Estancia Accoyo of Peru.
Ghiradella is without question a top-of-the-line alpaca. At age 10, she is retaining her fineness. In fact, her 2011 numbers : AFD 25.5, SD 5.2, CV 20.3.
She has produced three females: bay black Juliette in 2004 - photo at bottom of this page - (Sire WVR's Renegade), bay black Arista in 2005 (Sire Tocto) and her October 2006 beige cria, Ophelia, sired by our white half Accoyo Igon. Ghiradella's first male cria, sired by Igon, was born in April of 2008, a fine and dense white boy looking just like dad. ALR Peruvian Chasqui's fleece at age 3 has an AFD of 19.8, SD4.3, CV 21.5.
Ghiradella delivered a true black male - ALR Allegro - with white facial markings and very fine fleece (AFD 15.4) in 2009, sired by multiple Champion and 4 x Get of Sire Derwydd Peruvian Inti-Sapa. Our fiber sorters liked his fleece better than any of the 24 fleeces they sorted.
She is currently open.
