HERD DISPERSAL UPDATE: Noche is an older experienced male who knows what he wants in life. He is very food motivated. He can be grumpy at times, but is very good with people. He also is very guard dog friendly. He is best pals with one of ours. We use Noche as our spit tester. He does well after being spit at because he can be bought off with food afterward! He is a great candidate to be trained because of his steady desire to eat. So, Noche can function as help on the farm and can be a loyal loving pet! Noche is a quality Bay Black. He is not True Black, however, and as a result his genetics are now less useful to us as we have moved toward a grey and black breeding program. We have been using Noche on a limited basis, and he deserves more work as a sireā€”so we are offering Noche for sale. Don't miss your chance to acquire this Champion male! Noche is an exceptional stud male with fantastic coverage all the way down to his toes and a correspondingly perfect conformation. He is dense, but his character and softness now are more typical of an alpaca his age. Noche is a large male with presence and a friendly personality. As a young male, Noche achieved quite a show record. Noche is a full Peruvian male out of two imports, with his sire being 5Peruvian Quicksiver. His lines are rare, and he would addition to any farm herd genetics. Noche has 28+ offspring on the ground, and he has proven that he throws dark color. Two of his offspring are fawn, but all of the rest are black, brown, or grey! He excels at improving conformation, bone, and size in his progeny. He has consistently passed his ribbon-winning characteristics on to his cria.

Description

This little guy we call "Eddy" has fantastic conformation and an attractive pattern of black and brown shading to add to his stunning appearance. Eddy is named for Edwin Powell Hubble, the first astronomer to note evidence that the universe is expanding--a discovery which helped establish the "Big Bang" theroy. Hubble observed what he determined to be galaxies beyond our own, opening up the study of space beyond the Milky Way. By the end of the 1920s he had devised a classification system, and found that these galaxies were also moving away from each other. Many astronomy terms and tools now bear his name, the most famous of which is the Hubble space telescope, launched by the shuttle Discovery in 1990. We have lowered the price on this cute little guy to make him available as a pet or fiber boy. While he has nice, soft fleece with character, he lacks the density we would like to see in a herdsire. Eddy is also available in a package with his buddy "the Professor", and we'd like to see them go to the same new home together if possible.
