Re: [AlpacaTalk] Dog Attack, any advice on Suri alpacas as replacements?
Hi Wendy,
I don't know what to tell you about marketability of backcross suris.
I think there is stigma attached to it, because there is always a
risk of a huacaya offspring.
There is also stigma attached to huacaya from suri. A lot of people
won't buy them, just like a lot of people won't buy a backcrossed
suri, or a suri that is known to have produced huacaya offspring. I
have a female whose dam is huacaya from suri, and we have others in
our herd who have suri in the background.
I prefer huacayas myself. I think the fleece is easier to work with
and they require less fuss with their fleece. But that's a personal
preference. The suri people really love the suris!
Best of luck!
