We will be starting our Spring breeding season without Rico. It will be an emotional time. We are still committed to giving you the best. Today (12/8/2011) was a very sad day at North Plains Alpacas, we said goodbye to Rico. He died early this morning of congestive heart failure. We thank the Lord for such a gift, and so thankful for the offspring we have and the ones coming in 2012! Take a look at Rico's final histogram, 2011.

What an attractive male! Orion Suave has the head, and the conformation to be a herdsire. Best of all he has the fleece! It is ultra soft and bright, bright, bright! You can tell just how bright he is when he walks by! He grows a nice staple length and the crimp goes all the way to the tips. It is a high amplitude medium frequency crimp style. He also has good density to his fineness.

Of course, this boy has a great pedigree as well! His dam, Sara, is a Pulitzer daughter and a Titan granddaughter! His sire is the well known DDF Peruvian Rico Suave, who is now passed. Orion has all the makings to produce great offspring!


We had a skin biopsy done by Norm Evans in 2015 which reads:

"NPA Peruvian Orion Suave" grades a true density of 81.88 follicles SQ MM of skin. Note the 8 fiber clusters on scan that show an average S/P of 11.4 to 1. Twenty five clusters have an average S/P of 11.6 to 1.
Orion's spread scan shows level 3 of 4 gland presence and that less than 10% of his secondary fibers are medullated.
100 secondary fibers average 13.3 microns while 50 primary fibers average 20.7 microns for a variation of 7.4 microns.
