Lakeland Uptown Funk

Lakeland Uptown Funk IAR: 260382 D.O.B: 02/05/2022

​

'Funky' is our first grey ever bred on farm from a fawn sire - Alpacaspecialist Legend and leopard appaloosa dam - Ambersun Paint drops.

We were surprised when Funky appeared, we had no clue what colour he was (he looked fancy and multicoloured) but his fleece really started coming along nicely and once he was shorn, he looked fabulous and was the most beautiful rose grey.

​

The quality of his fleece kept shining through and was getting better and better. For a grey Funky has a fleece full of character and style which you often don't get. His consistency and style extends down into his extremities, which you would never know because he stomps and kicks, but despite the protest against his appendages being examined the judges could see through this and awarded him some fantastic ribbons, kick starting his show career, which we hope continues and earns a spot as a stud here at Lakeland.
