[AlpacaTalk] (no subject)

I want to first say Happy Thanksgiving.

Now, does anyone have any photos of typical display set ups at shows? I am
not trying to steal anyone's ideas. But I have not been able to get to any
shows this year. I am planning to hit the show circuit early in the spring and
want to be sure to have the standard marketing tools and set up for my area.

RE: [AlpacaTalk] Condor

Oops. Sorry Wendy. I thought you meant going to Ontario because Michigan is
nearby. And, it is in Michigan where PPeruvian Condor is located.

hi Heather - i don't know any suri alpacas, altho i love the sound of the
male Denise has - the Condor in Pacafiesta, who lives in Ontario, appears to
be the one i'm talking about.
And it is Caligula who passed away - too bad but sounds like he has lots of
magnificent offspring.

Ok, now I'm really thinking you two are talking about different males.
Do you mean the suri that Denise is talking about or a huacaya in
Canada?

RE: [AlpacaTalk] Condor

Now that is interesting Wendy. What Allison did not write is the end of our
four and a half year string of Suri male cria was the breeding of a Suri dam
(Miss Aurora B who has had five male cria) to CMR Statesman, our 11 year old
son of Acero Marka's Rag Top. Statesman has a very strong orgle. We bred him
to Aurora in one barn stall and put Twist (our Bruxo son) in a different
stall with an open Suri dam for his first time. Having the extra sound and
"instruction" nearby offered a bit of extra incentive for Twists' first time
at breeding.

Best,

Denise L. Moss-Fritch

well thanks to everyone who contributed "condor" info - he is so beautiful i
wish i could spirit my girls across Canada to Ontario and arrange some play
dates - I have a son who lives there but i can't talk him into putting a few
alpacas in his back yard.

as Allison was saying, nothing but boys for two years as we are starting out
was a little daunting - when our first cria arrived this summer and was a
boy - i told my husband, "well, we're going to have a boy farm. Get used to
it" - and then our little Mirabella was born, our first girl, and from our
"retired" nanny alpaca who we hadn't planned to breed at all. What a
surprise (we thought she was retired) The dam is full Chilean and can only
be called 'grade'. Mirabella's sire is a grandson of Acero Marka's
Rockamundo and he definitely brings out the best in our girls.

Mirabella reminds us it is worth it to keep going, and if i had a chance at
a male like Caligula or Condor, i would scrounge up the stud fee gladly.

RE: [AlpacaTalk] Condor

No Heather. Wendy and I are both writing about a Suri herdsire (4PERUVIAN
CONDOR 6041) who is owned by Great Lakes Ranch. Great Lakes Ranch is located
in the upper part of the lower section of Michigan, across one of the Great
Lakes from Ontario. Wendy says she has a son who lives in Ontario. If she
could bring her girls to that Ontario location, perhaps she could convince
the Great Lakes Ranch owners to bring Condor (the Suri herdsire) into Canada
for a couple of breedings. Not likely though.

Best,

Denise
