alpacas: Re: [AlpacaTalk] CA/BEW

Hi Dawn/Meagan,

"We," meaning you, decided you weren't going to discuss anything further. You feel free to make accusation after accusation, and ask me for some sort of proof or confession??? As I reported, I have written to the sire owners of my boys, and forwarded your email with them, asking for information regarding any CA offspring. I am waiting for replies. I am terribly sorry if you feel this is some fort of omission on my part.

I was simply asking a hypothetical question, regarding a sibling of one of your hypothetical animals. Oh gosh. I meant to say "How would you feel", not "How do you feel." My deepest apologies. You would definitely cull that animal from your breeding program then, if a sib was a BEW?

well, well, Heather.... we SO let this go, but here you are again....for someone who was growing weary of the subject, you are sure putting a lot of effort into keeping this subject going..... so I'll tell you this... when we purchased these animals about 7 years ago on most, there were no BEW in the lines.... The lines were checked again just two weeks ago, and then still found nothing. Now, what other people do during the almost decade of our owning the animals, we have no control over when the genetic is introduced into the line after the the spot in the pedigree where our animal is..... Purchase decisions are made with current information at hand... 7 years ago.

Since we are not aware of this "half sibling' you mention, you are more than welcome to let us know which line so we can re-check this line and either validate or prove negative your allegation. We have not had any blue eyes, or other problems in their offspring..... If we do indeed verify the allegation to be valid, the line will be pulled from our breeding program.

it is really interesting that you will "invetigate" our lines, but won't fess up to yours....

Regards,

Dawn
