Details
Tierra’s Darlin’ Valentine is a scrumptious package. She is a rich, decadent deep chocolate with wonderful fiber characteristics. She has a wonderfully bright, well nourished fleece with good density and amazing staple length. She has a low amplitude, high frequency crimp with 7 crimps per inch and lots of bundling. Her conformation is correct and proud with a correct bite. She placed 1st in her yearling full fleece brown class at the TXOLAN Alpaca Spectacular and was the youngest in her class.

When you add that to her impressive pedigree, it is a decidedly sweet deal: Dom Lucilio, Royal Fawn, El Moustachio, Sinopsis Nocturna, and Klondike Kate.

Her 2008 cria out of Caligula’s Accoyo Poseidon has done extremely well in the show ring and is just beautiful. Her 2009 cria out of Crescent Moon's Touchet will sell at her side.

Skin biopsies have become a cutting edge tool in the evaluation of fleece quality.. We have found it to be very useful, in addition to the histogram and pedigree, in helping us to make our breeding decisions towards achieving the “ideal” fleece.

Dr Norm Evans performed these biopsies in
August of 2007. Average density has been 38 follicles per SQ mm of skin and average S/P ratio has been 8.5 to 1.

"Valentine shows a density of 62.75 follicle per SQ mm of skin and an S/P of 10.2/1. The 15X and S/P views demonstrate good bundle uniformity. The 250X shows nice gland presence and a high level of secondary medullation. This female has many strong points."

She sheared 7.5 # of fleece this year and Poseidon sheared 12.5 #. Caligula’s Accoyo Poseidon has won 7 Color Championships and has sired multiple championship winning offspring. The fusion of their elite genetic traits and pedigrees will be an awesome, winning combination!
