Sometimes a real eye-catching youngster comes along, and Mr. Wonderful is one of them. As handsome as can be, he has quickly become one of our favorites at the Hacienda.

Mr. Wonderful comes from "wonderful" stock. His sire is Crescent Moon's Crown Royal, our multi-award winning herdsire, and his dam is Kitty Colt, our blue-winning Royal Fawn granddaughter. His sire contributed loads of density and big, bold crimp, his dam has given him softness, and both parents are represented in Mr. Wonderful's color, sturdy bone and striking head.

He is maturing well, and held his own in the show ring this spring. We were most proud of his 3rd Place at the International Alpaca Odyssey, a highly competitive venue. At the Soutwest Regional, he took 2nd place in his class. At under two years of age, he sheared 7.4 pounds of super-soft fiber with a wonderful hand, and that histogram is pending but will be posted soon.

We are reluctant to offer any male as a junior herdsire until we've had the chance to evaluate his fiber over the course of several shearings, as well as to have time to evaluate conformation which can change with maturity. After all, our name is on our breed stock, and we take that very seriously when it comes to our clients. But Mr. Wonderful is such a complete package of pedigree, fiber, beautiful head type and conformation, we believe he would be an asset to any breeding program.

Feel free to write or call with any questions you may have. We'll be happy to send off fiber samples and additional pictures. Or better yet, come see Mr. Wonderful for yourself; we know you'll love him as much as we do!
