2012: 1st place fleece AND Judge's Choice Award in the D age class with his 5th fleece - 2012 Alpacapalooza and with 25% of the fleece skirted out due to rain damage.
With his prepotent Alianza and Sollocota pedigree, Flint is a great herdsire prospect with an abundant, long and silky, incredibly soft and bright fleece as well as fantastic nationally recognized genetics. He has one of the most beautiful fleeces on the farm and he hands down gets the prize for "lingering" fleece. He has very good conformation, full coverage and a nice temperament. He is related to most of the herd, so he has not bred yet, but he is being held in reserve to follow in their sire's footsteps.
He has bloodlines from famous alpacas: P. Andrajo, P. Misty Maiden, P. Desert Sun, and 4P black Magic.
2006-2007: 354 day gestation; 18 lb @ birth; 24 hr IgG: 2283; gaining 0.6 lb/day; very vigorous; strong and alert; has his dad's gorgeous dark eyes and perfect ears; correct bite; complete and abundant fleece coverage nose to toes on day one! His newborn cria fleece looks like it has been trimmed. It's incredibly bright, fine, dense and very long stapled with aligned medium amplitude and frequency crimp. Of special note is his very correct conformation and movement in all gates.
His highly regarded Peruvian heritage includes Constantino's strong Alianza traits from his blue ribbon dam, and Isabelle's Sollocota qualities from the famous P. Misty Maiden and 4P Black Magic lines, along with two other very successful grandparents, 4P Lanarks Locota and P. Sweet dreams from the Malaquito and Macusani regions respectively, and who together produced Lanarks Chanel, a Futurity high-selling award winner.
