LHSA Bizmark - Deceased
Suri, Male, Unproven | White
ARI# 31651752, D.O.B. 4/29/2010, Full Peruvian
Sire: LHSA Lucas - Deceased ARI#
30387737 White Lucas passed away March 2023 of natural causes. He has been a beloved herdsire and one of LHSA first cria's. His presence will be missed among our herd.
LHSA Lucas is a gentle male like his sire Crown Royale's White Knight. Dense, and 18 microns! His dam is out of Papacito & Penelope. She is half sister to Admirals Commander. Lucas is at least 1/4 Accoyo & full Peruvian. On May 24, 2009 we sheared Lucas for the 3rd time. He sheared a prime blanket of 4-1/2 lbs with an additional 3/4lb of 2nds that look exactly like his prime blanket. LHSA continues to produce 3-4 pounds quality fiber each shearing. Luster, Lock, and Density. Perfect score!
Based on the Suri Network SHIP program, Lucas scored 4.77 out of a possible 5. Strong on lock, luster and a perfect 5 on confirmation categories.
Lucas was biopsied as a 6-year-old and his density is 50.5 per sq mm and s/p ratio is 10.5 to 1. He shows a level 4 of 4 glands present and only 10% of his secondary fibers show medulation. 100 secondary fibers average 17.8 micron, while 50 primary fibers average 32.1 with a spread of 14.3.
Lucas is in the top 15% EPDs.
How it Works
• Buy any alpaca from Long Hollow Suri Alpacas
• After every shearing, send the fleece to New Era Fiber
• Indicate that the animal was bought from Long Hollow Suri Alpacas – Advise us how you want the fleece processed
• We will process the fleece and send you back the product (yarn, roving, etc.)
We provide this benefit to ensure the economic viability of the animals we sell for their lifespan. This program allows our customers to earn money to care for and potentially make a profit on the alpacas we sell to you.
Dam: Miss Whillow -Deceased ARI#
827441 Light Fawn Miss Whillow crossed the Rainbow Bridge but her offspring carry on her Peruvian traits, luster, and locks.
Peruvian Angel & Inca Hoots as Grand sires Whillow was the special one we purchased to start our breeding program. She has had 6 wonderful cria for us. The latest one, 'Bizmark' is a big white boy (born at almost 24lbs) out of our own LHSA Lucas. Like her other cria he has very fine fleece, lots of luster, and twisted locks.
Description
Born at 25 pounds and weaned at 93! Our boy Bizmark is one of the most substantial males on our farm. When reviewed for the Suri Network Herd Improvement Program, he scored as one of the highest on our farm with an average of 4.77! He scored a 5 in confirmation and and in luster and lock. His uniform, pearled locks with a micron variation of 5.2 and less than 15% medulation, give him excellent handle!
Biz is an asset to any breeding program as he is a well-rounded male. He has won awards in both halter and fleece. His sire, Lucas, is the product of two great Peruvian lines -- Crown Royals White Knight and Alpha, a Papcito/Penelope daughter. On his dams side, Mocha Supreme, an Angel son and Whisperlit, our of Inca Hoots blend the best.
