Always Accoyo, Always Plantel!

6Peruvian Accoyo Plantel 5054

We sold Accoyo Plantel at the Prestige Auction, where he was the high-selling lot. West Coast breeders, take note: Plantel is now standing stud at La Finca Alpacas and The Alpaca Group in Washington State! Plantel is a big, bold full Accoyo Plantel male. I will admit to having looked at this boy's picture many times when browsing through Magical Farms' stud male brochure and musing, oh if only...! Well, dreams CAN come true! In 2003, Plantel sheared over sixteen pounds of fiber, so he approaches Barreda's fleece weight ideal of twenty pounds. Moreover, Plantel passes his density on to his offspring! This is the male that, bred to a high-frequency crimp style female of superior quality can and does produce the elusive, elite fiber with the supreme density we all crave for our programs. We are keeping three Plantel daughters in our foundation herd, and I know that the Forstners have several generations of Plantel's offspring represented in their herd as well. Plantel, no doubt, will go on to produce a dynasty of amazing offspring for his new owners, and we wish them all the very best. We know, because he has done all that for us! Photo Credits: (c) J.
