Call her a perfect example of “hybrid vigor” or call her an “OOPS!”  This very sweet female has a suri for a mom  and a huacaya for a dad.   Mom decided to ask the boys over for “tea.”  Then she never told us that she had met up with the cutest male in the corral.  In fact, she hid her indiscretion so well that we bred her to our suri herdsire a few weeks after this event and she was most receptive.  Shame on her!

Anyway her indiscretion came to light when Neshaki hit the ground.  She is huacaya phenotype through and through.  Her fiber, as it turns out, is most wonderful.  It has loads of crimp but is quite silky.  It should spin up beautifully.

Neshaki is a strong strapping female.  If you are interested in experimenting with what the outcome will be from her it could be most interesting.  It seems unlikely that she will ever produce a suri.  But should she produce either suri or huacaya, the cria will be a healthy, viable alpaca.  Her mom is a birthing machine.  She loves being pregnant (obviously) and she produces very strong lovely crias.
