Fiber Producing Princess

Gabbie P One

**Summer 2024 - Quickly turning into one of my favorites, I try NOT to envision what the future holds for this female. She has an abundance of fleece, a strong frame, a laid back personality and is such an easy keeper that I forget that I even have her out there grazing quietly in the pastures. I know I can't keep them all. I struggle to decide who to breed her to because genetically she lines up so nicely with SO MANY males. Decisions, decisions...

They say that you aren’t supposed to have favorites, right. Well this little princess rises to the top of our list quickly, and not just because she is adorable.

Gabbie certainly has curb appeal – but look past her cuteness and you will see a picture-perfect conformation. She stands square and moves fluidly and has a true-to-type Huacaya head style. Her fleece is what really captures you – buttery soft, and eye-popping architecture that is consistent from tip to skin everywhere. The characteristics of this fleece are amazingly fine and dense – creating an obvious solidity in the staples when the fleece is parted. We can’t wait to see how she matures!

Gabbie’s ancestry is exactly why she is an exquisite alpaca. Look closely and several names pop out. And Ian Watt was spot on when he said that Gabbie had a "near perfect profile" - her fiber is stunning. He knows fiber when he sees it. :)
