Sire: Godiva's Peruvian Royal Chocolatier ARI#
822705 True Black "Choco" is full Peruvian and part Accoyo - one of the few black suri herdsires in the country who are! His beautiful fleece and solid conformation, along with his superior genes, are a welcome addition to selective suri breeders. He is a grandson on his dam's side of true black 4Peruvian Royal Black Gold, so the black genes run deep. On his dam's side, he is a half-brother to multiple blue ribbon winner and Champion, RFSS Peach Truffles. Choco's crias, many of them black, have been beautiful. World class alpaca judge, Amanda VandenBosch, said that she pegged Choco's son, Jasper (8 months of age), for her first place juvenile dark suri male as soon as he walked into the ring at the 2006 Sunshine State Alpaca Expo, and she then picked Jasper as her Reserve Champion over 14 other males, many two years and older then Jasper. The following month, Jasper was chosen as Color Shampion at the Southern Select 2006, and then he took a First at the 2006 MaPaca Jubilee, one of the largest alpaca shows. In 2008, Choco's daughter, RFSS Rosebud, was unbeaten in her color class and took two Championships. Choco's son, Ali of TCF, placed ahead of sons of Torbio, Commander in Chief, and Sirius Black in the 2008 Spring shows, taking a Championship at the Palmetto Classic and placing Fifth at the All American Alpaca Futurity. Another one of Choco's sons, RFSS Bonfire, tooke three Championships in three shows in Spring of 2009, at just eight months of age. There are far too many of Choco's award-winning offspring to mention here. One of his latest offpsring, Regal Raissa, is a medium silver gray!

Dam: SOAA That's So Raven ARI#
30677395 TB Raven's fiber is good density, and nice uniformity. She has a very good presence as well. Her dam (Krispy Kreme) won Reserve Color Champion at PNAA 2004 and Color Champion at Heart of the Valley in 2005. Her sire is Virgo el Bolivian who is a spectacular example of what is desired in a colored Suri Herdsire: coverage from head to toe, uniform locks, dense fiber and top notch conformation to boot. Bolivian Albertina, Virgo's dam, and Black Debut of Bolivia, Virgo's sire, continue to to produce black and gray crias.
Raven's 1st cria born in March 2012 is a DRG male cria (Silvery Mocha) and his fleece is outstanding. And, to top it off the cria has such a wonderful disposition.
Description
This boy was a surprise as he was being delivered - I knew his color was a bit unusual but not until his fiber was completely dry did I realize we had a Dark Rose Grey! He has a bit of grey splotch on top of his head and a splotch on the tip of tail. Amazing cria with loads of luster, and what a personality go with it.
