Yaringa Grand Duke Ferdinand IAR: 225875 D.O.B: 04/01/2017

​

Ferdy has a cheeky fawn spot on his neck and boasting plenty of colour in his genes, this stud male was the perfect choice for us and has produced any array of quality coloured progeny including leopard appaloosa.

Maintaining his fleece qualities well into sixth year, he is still very fine, soft to the handle, dense, highly aligned and organized with nice, structured bundles. He has a very handsome macho head on a good solid frame and passes these positive traits onto his cria.

Notable cria:

Lakeland Lucky you - her dam, Malakai Viability has very well suited fleece characteristics to Ferdinand and exhibits the same traits we look for in our alpacas. Due to the success, this pairing was repeated and we have Lucky's full brother Drax set to enter the show ring as a junior late in 2023.

Lucky You has always placed first in her class and has gone on to be awarded reserve champion intermediate female & best light fawn at Toowoomba Royal 2023 and Champion Light fawn female at Grafton Colourbration 2023.

Lakeland sexy and I know it is a gorgeous leopard appaloosa who's junior fleece has placed 1st at Toowoomba and Grafton shows 2023.
