April is a dainty, perfectly conformed little female with great potential as a breeding alpaca. She had her first cria in spring 2019 (a male who is included in this sale). Of course, as per our commitment at The Alpaca Place, April’s parentage has been verified by DNA and she is halter trained to boot. A great little starter alpaca, April’s father , Huari Lincoln, was a black and she therefore carries that colour genetically although she herself is a very pretty medium brown, this means if she is mated to a black or grey male in future she could produce a black cria but other colours are a possibility.

April’s fleece is very dense and at around 30 micron is of commercial quality.  Her cria is also very densely fleeced  so this two will each yield a good quantity of fleece.

We’ll seriously consider all offers.  Call Liz.
