A. L. PACA'S CHICHITA
(Wiley Coyote x AC BMW Beamer)
LSG/WH             True Black
DOB: 6-4-00
ARI #: 819822
COLOR: Bay Black (solid)
PRODUCTION RECORD:
- 6/21/04 Dark brown male by Snowmass Alpine Gold who unfortunately had to be put down the morning after he was born. He had a congenital defect of the intestines so that they were not connected to his anus. This occurs 1 in about every 6-7,000 births and is not known to be genetic in nature. She was a FANTASTIC mother, made loads of milk. About a week after her cria died, she tried to adopt another dam's cria, and she allowed (no, INSISTED) it to nurse from her. This is a very valuable asset!

- 8/24/05 - Medium fawn FEMALE, AD Charlotte, (by the now deceasedCaligula son, Peruvian Best Ala Best). She's loaded with curls & has gray ears! She is included in the package for Chichita, or can be purchased separately. Pictures above, updates to be added soon!

Due 8/06: bred to ELK Napoleon, settled in one breeding. Napoleon always throws color when bred to color and puts great fleece and bone on his babies!

4 in 1 Price: SOLD! Congratulations to Ruth Bennett and Gail Weatherford of Williamsville, NY!

COMMENTS:  Chichita has an engaging personality and a watchful eye, she's been known to run unsuspecting cats out of the pasture with deft precision!  She has incredibly fine fiber, especially for a black alpaca: her '02 histogram revealed AFD: 23.9, SD: 4.5, CV: 18.6, %>30: 6.7.  We used the comprehensive OFDA test in 2004, and Chichita still shines. Avg. Micron (over the length of her fleece): 23.6, SD: 4.5; CV: 18.9; CF: 92.8; min. micron 22.4, max: 26.7! This is considered exceptional for a black, as darker fiber generally is coarser. Her numbers are equal to our white animals!
