31117128 White Whitney has had 3 offspring and has had effortless births, plenty of milk and healthy cria. What can you say about Whitney except she is the ideal foundation dam. Whit's staple length is her only fault, but she makes up for it density. Her staple length looks short because of this amazingly tight crimp. She is one of top 75 alpacas in AOA database for MC. MC reflects behaviors of crimp.
At age ten, she carries a histogram AFD of 22, and has uniformity in all those fiber traits, especially fineness. She is fine and consistently fine. Whitney is a rare genetically gifted Dam. We have lowered her price because of her age, but, she still has many years of reproduction left.
Whitney has given us herdsire quality offspring. Whitney's father Snowmass Snow Cloud was recently honored for having the top overall EPDs in the nation.
There is Hemingway and Snowmass heritage all around in this dam. Still young with many cria ahead in her future. She would be the perfect candidate for embryo transfers in other dams.
See her current EPDs under the DNA icon on this page.
Description
River Sampson is a beautiful white male 2 year old. He is sweet and easy to handle. His yearling Histogram AFD is 15, WOW. Sampson's Dam Whitney Snow will be recognized at AOBA 2013 Nationals for her #1 ranking in the EPD trait for mean curvature (crimp). Contender's River Sampson is extremely fine, crimpy, and dense fiber. A SPINNERS DREAM. He has great potential for longevity of fineness for the years of spinning or just a wonderful young male pasture pet or companion. He has been doing well in the show ring. Not only is his fiber fine, it is extremely uniform, with lots of crimp and bundling. This boy has the best histogram on the ranch. Sampson had non-descended testicles and was neutered due to the fact the problem could not be corrected.
Take this beautiful boy home for a heck of uh price. We will make a great spinners package if sold with non=breeder Easter's Eve. Both white and both with royal luxurious fiber. Both gentle and friendly alpacas that will bring you and your family great pleasure.
