Marissa is truly the case of lots of alpaca in a little package. Marissa has award winning fleece, taking a blue and reserve champion as a yearling, among others. She hated the show ring, and had a short career, but made a huge impression while she was there. Marissa is well made and very balanced, at about 130 lbs. She has a beautiful teddy bear face, with a short muzzle and big eyes.
Her first cria, Smoking Ember, was a knockout in the showring. Long, lean and elegant, this boy has incredible fleece. He is one of the only true blacks Ive seen that has absolutely no white fibers in his fleece. Marissa passed on the teddy bear face and big eyes, which the judges loved. Unlike his mother, he loved the show ring, and the attention. He took several 2nds and a 3rd.
Marissas second cria, 38 Magnum, is another stunning black male. His sire, Neversummers Manchester, is a powerhouse of fiber and lineage. Magnums fiber is as incredible as his genetics testify. Magnum did well in his first show, taking 6th out of 9 against some tough competition, despite being put in a true black class with some bay black characteristics showing.
Update: Marissa and Gulliver gave us our first home grown classic gray. A bright faced rose gray boy, Boots has Marissas beautiful face and his daddys coloring. We are very pleased with this boy!
Marissa sells as a non breeder, fiber girl. She is still producing wonderful fiber and should for some time. Marissa has become quite the watchdog, she notices everything in the area and is among the first to the fence to protect her herd. U will know right away if there is anything near your herd, even if its just a house cat!
