She is an excellent mother and has plenty of milk.
Moon Shadow is an all around excellent specimen of the Suri alpaca, demonstrating correct conformation, fabulous fiber characteristics, and a wonderful Suri head.

35082316 White Due Date: 7/2/2024 Astor - son of Makani and Andretti, grandson of Our Accoyo Pulitzer and Pucara Kahuna. Genetics genetics, genetics!
What can we say about Astor? He is well-built, with great conformation. His fiber is beautifully fine and uniform. Great density, and luscious handle. His EPDs for 2022 are in the top 1% or 5% for nearly every trait.
Great conformation, great fiber, and on top of it all, Astor is super friendly and easy to work with!
We sheared Astor in 2017, and then he joined our show string. He ended his outstanding show career with a Championship at the 2018 Futurity, as a previously shorn boy! Oodles of fleece, outstanding fineness, and excellent regrowth!

Description
Mask is a unique girl - cute as a button, personality plus, and really really nice fiber! She comes by her name quite naturally, as you can see! We registered her as dark brown but we are seeing some dark grey in her blanket.
Her lineage boasts Silver Heat (sire), This is Granite! (grandsire) and of course Yodi (great-grandsire).
Mask is smart, inventive and absolutely delightful to watch! Even as an adult she has a great time playing. With her pedigree and what we see of her fiber so far, Mask should be a wonderful addition to a breeding program.
Mask's cria are absolutely stunning.
