Details
Price reduction (to make way for new crias)! Great opportunity!
Katana is our most promising alpaca. His conformation is second to none. This boy has very strong bone, proportion, and holds himself like he knows it to be true. Katana means "sword" in Japanese, and from the start he stood straight and proud. Katana's fleece is very bright and consistent with a medium frequency high amplitude crimp style. It is extremely uniform, fine, and organized. All these attributes come together in giving Katana a very pleasant handle with buttery fleece.
Katana is a Misty Ridge Altair's Samaurai (descendant of Peruvian Aladdin G209) boy. A judge said of Samaurai's fleece: "I could handle this fleece all day, incredibly bright, beautiful density. This is what we as an industry need to be breeding for". And, Katana's sire is Misty Ridge Altair's Samauri!
Katana took FIRST PLACE in the True Black Juveniles class at GWAS, a Level V show. Katana takes blue AGAIN at the National Western Stock Show . . . and the COLOR RESERVE! Good job Katana! The judge said he had fleece that was inky black that was incredible to handle.
Katana started his breeding career in the spring of 2013. If you want to bring incredible conformation and low micron to your herd, give us a call. Katana has some fantastic cria.
