This full Accoyo herdsire has tremendous density, very macho presence, huge bone structure, and eye-to-toe coverage. His fiber stats at two years of age were impressive; 18.1 micron with a CF of 99.7. His dam still has a micron count of 22.7 at over 13 years of age. Santana's regrowth has fantastic definition and luster. Consistent with his sire's color, he has produced fawn full Accoyo offspring with white dams.
Santana's Skin Biopsy numbers are in from Ian Watt
Density: 48.2 /mm2
Secondary:Primary fiber ratio: 9.6 :1
In-skin mean primary fiber diameter: 24.71µ Standard Deviation: 2.9 µ Range: 17.9 µ to 32.7 µ
In-skin mean secondary fiber diameter: 17.1 µ Standard Deviation: 2.6 µ Range: 11.7 µ to 25.0 µ
Comments:
This male is showing good density well supported by a reasonable S:P ratio and very even primary and
secondary fiber populations as evidenced by the Standard Deviation numbers.
The follicles are clustered together in tight groups which leads to lower SD’s as the fibers tend to grow
more quickly and uniformly due to the population pressure in each follicle group.
This male sits above the median for white suri and should deliver considerable improvement to good
quality female alpacas.
Santana is the full brother to Kori ( dam to 7 time champion Durango ( Kori x Macgyver ).
