Alexis gives birth to DMAR Royal Peruvian Princess: This occurred on Nov. 24th at 8:13am. She weighed 15.2 lbs and light fawn in color. RPP is doing great although she is a little low still on her rear pasterns. This will correct itself with a little time. Her fiber is absolutely gorgeous. There are twists and crimp already and the ends are tight as popcorn. We are very excited about this little female cria. Her dam, Alexis, is doing fine as well. The entire 2nd stage of labor only took 8 minutes. Pretty impressive. I have noticed that Alexis is a bit more protective of this cria. She tends to start spitting at me as I try to get close to RPP. Overall we are very pleased. RPP sire is Royal Sun of Cienega Creek Alpacas. RPP is full sister to her Reserve Color Champion, DMAR Royal Knight.
AOCR Michelle Rose is the next to go into labor. Day 335 starts on December 10th. I can tell she is now feeling her last days of pregnancy as she is laying around more and is slow in moving. This will be her second Snowmass Incan Emperor cria. Remember her first, DMAR Nikoli, has been winning blue ribbons at the show.
