Alpaca Palace Crown's Gypsy Rose

We named him "Crown Prince" for a reason. Out of our black AOBA Reserve Color Champion, Boadicea, he has the fiber and conformation to make heads turn. His dam Boadicea was the queen of the show circuit in 2000 with folks waiting at the ring to purchase her as she won yet another blue ribbon. We made the decision to keep her as part of our foundation stock. She has rewarded that decision time and time again with Champion cria. Dam to four cria with multiple Blue ribbons and Banners, she is just as important to Crown Prince's genetics as his famous sire, Snowmass Peruvian Casanova. Crown Prince has combined the best of his dam and sire to be an example of the fineness, density, crimp, and conformation. As a mature male he added a blue ribbon from the highly regarded Ohio Alpacafest and a Reserve Color Championship from 2009 PAOBA Breeders Showcase. We believe that he is certainly one of the finest Peruvian gray males on the East Coast. Crown Prince has many cria on the ground...80% black or gray...all looking like they are destined to challenge his outstanding show career. Several cria are already blue ribbon winners at large shows and three of them have banners to their name! Crown's 2010 histogram numbers indicate his "lingering fineness" with an AFD of 20.3. Not bad for a four year old. Crown's real value is revealed in his ability to produce show quality cria...consistently...in black and gray. 2007 HISTOGRAM: AFD 17.7; SD 3.8; CV 21.5; %>30 0.9 2008 HISTOGRAM (2 YEARS OLD):AFD 20.0; SD 5.5; CV 23.3; %>30 4.6 2009 HISTOGRAM (3 YEARS OLD): AFD 22.7; SD 4.9; CV 21.8; %>30 6.8 2010 HISTOGRAM (4 YEARS OLD): AFD 20.3; SD 5.0; CV 24.8; %>30=5.0
