Our patriarch of the herd is waiting for us on the other side! Sadly we lost Captain in 2017. He lived out his life where he was born - at Wings and a Prayer Alpacas and is missed by all of us. He has stamped his label on a large part of our foundation herd and we will always be grateful for his contribution and his legacy.
NO ONE spells consistancy better than "Captain Morgan"! Time and time again he has proven his superior genes have the ability to pass on that wonderful suri phenotype to his crias AND, after 10 years of offspring, he's still producing color champions! Captain has literally thrown every color on the chart. If you're breeding for quality AND color, you've found it! If you're looking for consistent color production out of any colored dam, check this out:
213 crias registered - 94% LF or darker offspring
61 white or beige dams bred - 87% LF or darker offspring
27 black crias (over 12% of all his crias are black!)
Captain Morgan was an incredible, mahogany, 3rd generation USA-born suri! He produced 100% SURI offspring! Captain's crias are known to inherit their sire's density, luster, coverage, and amazing personality. If you're looking to add prominent luster to your offspring, the Captain genetics pool is a must in your herd.
We believe this is one line EVERYONE needs to take a closer look at. Winner of the 2005,2006, 2007 AND 2008 Futurity Reserve Suri Herdsire of the Year award, Captain Morgan genetics should be in YOUR sights for future breedings. Placing 2nd in the country only to his sire, DDF Peruvian Macgyver (also deceased), 4 years in a row, this is a very consistent, dependable line if you're looking to add positive suri traits to your breeding program.
