Foundation Suri Alpacas

Born on a mid-afternoon, rainy summer day, Echo's Summer Rayne entered this world a light fawn color. As the days have progressed, her color has changed dramatically! She has a unique color. I cannot match it to the ARI Color Chart. We can't wait for the Southwest Regional Alpaca Show, 2/15-2/16, 2014. The judge can help us decide what her true colors are. She may be a Rose Grey. Echo is a white and Coalminer is True Black. The results are in ... The compliance check classified her as Modern Medium Rose Grey. Judge Amanda called her Taupe. By all means this is unique and curious as the color continues to turn. She got a lot of attention at SWRAS. Summer Rayne has very fine, soft fleece and plenty of it! In 2016 she produced 7.4 pounds of very long fiber. Judge Judy Glaser appreciates this long fiber, awarding her five out of five points in each Uniformity of Micron and Uniformity of Length

2017 California Classic Roundup Spinoff - 1st Place at 8 years old! Judy Glaser awarded full points for spinning criteria and said the fiber "spun and drafted evenly, nice!" After the yarn was spun she awared six out of six points for first impression and seven out of seven for usability. At the 2014 SW Regional Alpaca Show, Judge Amanda awarded HCA Toffee 1st Place for her excellent fineness, soft handle and overall correctness in her body proportions. She also said that her regrowth has presented a nice length of lock for the growing period. HCA Toffee bred to HCA Sir William in 2016. Both are full of Lustrous locks! Toffee gave birth the HCA Abraham (Abe) on the afternoon of August 24, 2017. to a healthy very light fawn boy.

On a very stormy Durango afternoon, we welcomed "Stormy" at 14.9 pounds almost dry. The wind was howling, so Copper and her daughter took shelter in the barn for a few hours, before she met Zorro and Smokin' Cinder, her half brothers in the maternity ward. Stormy is a beautiful dark maroon brown with curly locks glowing in the dark barn. Judge Judy Glaser commented Rich Color! and soft handle on her report for this Judges Choice remarks at the 2017 California Classic Roundup. She also commented under Handle that it was a nice cool wonderful drape.

Pretty luster! So Golden. Judy Glaser, at the California Classic Roundup Spinoff, said, "YES!" to luster.
