SURI Co owned with Sur-Real Alpacas and CCR Alpacas.
Chakotah of CCR Suris
(now working)
When we first started our alpaca farm here in the US the first sale we made of our own suris was to Ann Rogers at CCR Alpacas. Since Ann has become a great friend and now a partner.
We asked Ann if she would let us know when one of those girl's, Kalina, had her cria and we would consider purchasing it. As it turned out she decided to send Kalina along with several of our own females to be bred to Moon River's Durango. Jude and I adored this boy. He was a stand out in the show ring but more importantly to us he had exquisite genetics. Those breedings produced two national Champions for us and several ribbon winners.
When Kalina gave birth Ann excitedly called us and raved about the cria. Well we know owners get a bit barn blind about their animals so we asked for pics....man oh man, he looked fabulous. We visited CCR Alpacas soon thereafter and purchased a half share of this boy, Chakotah....at two months of age!!! Its insane, the first time we have been so bold but in the flesh he even looked better than the pics.
Ann had produced a knockout cria.
His performance of course in the show ring has been exemplorary under very good suri judges. He exhibits extreme greasy luster, super silky handle, density in thick well defined locks from one end of his sturdy frame to the other and fineness. All with a proud masculine head on a well balanced body.
Was this to be expected from the intial breeding. We hoped so because it was the marriage of genetics from Peruvian Bruxo, Peruvian Uribe, Peruvian Augustina (McGyver's mom), Pperuvian Amador and Peruvian Cadete (Accoyo foundation herdsires of our female herd), Pucara Kahuna and Pucara Allegro who had 37 championship winning cria in Australia of which 17 won Best in Show! The odds were stacked in our favor and are now stacked in yours because there is little room for deviation of outcome with this punch of prepotence. If you have a good female you'll get a great cria with this breeding.
He should be ready to work later this breeding season.
