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.

Perfect. She is bright, shiny, and beautiful. Opal’s dense fleece was over 3 inches long at birth. She is big boned, straight, with a perfect bite. With soft, lustrous curls, Tuscano’s Opal is really something to look at. Opal is out of Tuscano of PVA who is out of PVA The Prince of Ghirardelli, with great genetics from Rocko Jax, Renzo, and Conquistador on her dam’s side. If you are looking to add luster and lock structure to your herd, consider Tuscano’s Opal. Her disposition is very easy going and well mannered, making her the perfect fit into anyone’s breeding program. She averages 155 pounds and very easy to handle. A word about the health practices at Long Hollow Suri Alpacas… We take the health of our herd seriously. • All alpacas are vaccinated annually, and bred females are vaccinated 30-60 days prior to birth of their cria. • Fecal flotations are performed on EACH individual alpaca monthly and treatment is completed on a per alpaca basis. • All alpacas receive monthly injections as a precaution against meningeal worm. • Bred females receive a minimum of 1 ultrasounds performed onsite by a veterinarian and our veterinary technician. We interact daily with all our animals to ensure any medical needs are addressed as needed and this improves their socialization.
