DMAR results from New Mexico Alpaca Show:
DMAR Royal Peruvivan Princess won 1st and Color Champion of the light fawn female class. Wahoo!!!! This is our first Color Champion, so winning is so delightful. We have plenty of reserve color champions and we’re not complaining, but Color Champion sure beats all. Personally I wasn’t at the show to see Tom and Princess win, but somebody had to stay home on cria watch.
DMAR Royal Peruvian Princess is a juvenile, light fawn female who the judge told my husband that her fleece was amazing. When she won color champ the judge told the crowd that when she opened the fleece it fell into micro bundles, was full of crimp, and very, very soft. This was Princess’ first show, so we are excited to attend future shows to see how she does. Don’t let us down, Princess.
Princess’ dam is GLA Peruvian Alexis and her sire is 105 Peruvian Royal Sun. Unfortunately, Royal Sun passed this year.
DMAR Magnum won 1st and Reserve Color Champion. Magnum won out of the light fawn class with the judge commenting to the crowd that they needed to open his fleece and feel inside, because it felt like butter! I have to admit that this is Tom’s boy of choice out of the juveniles. Great looking boy with plenty of coverage and uniformity of crimp (plenty of it) throughout his entire fleece. This was Magnum’s first show and he is proving to be a winner.
DMAR Magnum’s dam is Kaitlyn-Rose who has 4 offspring on the ground to date. All of the offsprings have won either a blue ribbon or better. Kaitlyn is definitely a wonderful foundation female who surprisingly doesn’t have any well known lineage listed at all. Pretty impressive.
Magnum’s sire is HRAZ Lock & Load. Magnum is the first offspring and you can see he is already making dad proud. We currently have 3 of Lock & Load’s offspring on the ground with 3 more on the way. Lock & Load is available for stud.Click Here for more information or email us at info@desertmtnalpacas.com.
DMAR Royal Knight won 2nd place. RK was the only beige boy in an all white class to make the class a light class. Tom told me he was sweating bullets as the class consisted of a total of 11 alpacas. Although RK didn’t win 1st the 1st place winner did take Color Champ as well allowing RK to move up for a chance of reserve color champ. Tom said the judge kept going between RK and another alpaca. Alas, the other alpaca won, but I am still thrilled at how well RK did. RK is full brother to Royal Peruvian Princess.
DMAR Royal Knight’s dam is GLA Peruvian Alexis and his sire is 105 Peruvian Royal Sun.
We are interested in selling 1/2 interest of Royal Knight, for more information Click Here. RK has won two 1st places and two reserve color championships to date. He is also full Peruvian.
DMAR Armani won 4th place. This was the first time that we had Armani grouped into a dark class where he competed against blacks and all shades of brown at the same time. However, we are very proud of him as he took 4th out of a class of 9. The judge commented that this was the first time where even up to 4th place all the fleeces were very, very fine.
DMAR Armani’s dam is Alpha Carina. Armani is a medium brown yearling who we are wanting to sell 1/2 interest. He has beautiful, fine fleece with nice crimp characteristics. Armani has won two 1st places and two reserve color championships.Click Here for more information.
Armani’s sire is Snowmass Incan Emperor who is a medium rose grey. Incan is available for breeding. To date (he’s only been breeding for a couple of years) 3 of his offsprings have won 1st or better. For more information on Incan Click Here.
This was a great show! I definitely won’t be missing the next one.
