At Pacific Sun we are breeding for crimp, density, uniformity and fineness in naturally colored fleece. We purchased our first alpacas in 2000, starting out with three females and are now up to 49 alpacas. I keep telling my husband they are like shoes, you need at least one of each color and type.

It has taken some time and research to figure out the direction of our breeding program. We understand the importance of the female lines as well as the male lines. We have learned about fiber and the various characteristics and are actively breeding to accentuate the positive traits to be expressed in our crias. We think we are on the right track, as we have some beautiful dark crias. In our female lines we have brought in Lionel, Rockamundo, Ice Man, Ultima, Alpamayo, Accoyo Fredrico, Accoyo Sandman, El Moustachio (accoyo), Victor's Vaccoyo, Felix and Accoyo Artic. If were are going to make the strides forward in our breeding program we understand the the male is only half of the equation. We try to bred our best to the best.

Delila

IAOC Delila

Born May 22, 2006
Color fawn
Dam Miss Prairie Wind (Dr. Brown)
Sire IAOC Fernando (beige)
Bred IAOC Akon (Lt. Brown)
Due June 2009

Delila is a solid well proportioned girl. She has great conformation and has a lovely soft fawn fleece with an excellent handle.

Although still a maiden she took to breeding as if she had invented it but alas she was settled far to soon as far as she was concerned.

On her dams side she has NGG Lional who has been sold to the US, limiting his bloodlines in Canada. On her sire's side she goes back to El Toro, also sold to the US to join Northwest Alpacas Stud Master Program.

She is bred to IAOC Akon one of the densest fleeced alpacas I have ever seen. Akon brings strong bloodlines with him which go to his sire Cortez, a wonderful black owned by IAOC. His maternal grandsire is Bolivian Ice Man and Bolivian Rockamundo!

Fibre Sats for 2007, 20.9/ 5.1/ 24.2/ %> 30= 2.9

If you are wanting to bring exceptional bloodlines to your farm she is the girl for you!

Delila is entered in the All Canadian Classic Alpaca Sale in Ontario and can be purchased through that sale.

Her fleece has outstanding character and good coverage. She is extremely dense with a very uniform fleece. She has strong bold crimp from the skin to the end of the staple, which can be found from her top knot to the back of her legs.

Katie Kate

Mystic Garden's Katie

Born June 20, 2005

Color beige
Sire MMR Entero (white)
Dam V Island Belle (beige)
Bred Westwool's Fredrico (fawn) accoyo
Due early June 2009

Katie is one of the most beautiful alpacas we had ever seen so we just had to have her in our breeding program. She has excellent conformation. Her high neck set creates a very straight top line and gives her a slender statuesque appearance.

Her 2007 fibre are 23.4/4.6/19.7. We are happy with her bright superfine crimpy fibre which has good density and excellent uniformity from shoulder to hip. It's hard to get both fineness and density, so we are very pleased indeed.

Katie has outstanding bloodlines through both her sire and dam. She is 3/4 Peruvian with a 1/4 accoyo through Ppperuvian El Moustachio, her great grand sire. She has color through her great grand sire Cortez, a true black. Her grandsire on the top is Alpamayo, one of Canadian top sires. Add this to who she is bred to, Westwool's Fredrico. He is a full accoyo male with incredible density, conformation, fibre quality and superior bloodlines to Accoyo's Juliaca and Ppervuian Felix.

So you can see Katie really does have it all, looks, fibre and breeding. How could we not have added her to our farm? Stay tuned for a lovely cria, (full peruvian/ part accoyo) in early June.
