Alpaca Show Quality Tips

Video Transcript

"When we go to shows, we have to select who we're going to take to our shows. And we determine that by their quality, and their colors. Here we have a little white boy. He's very, very nice. And this is a brown girl. And they are both going to be in the shows, and they are because of their quality. We look to see, they have to be six months old to show, and we look to see how we feel they'll do in the show room and so we will take their fleece, examine their fleece ourselves before we take them, and if we think they will do will, that they are worthy of a ribbon, we'll take them into the show ring also. Things that we are looking for is with these, you can see the luster in his fleece and how nicely locked he is. He's a beautiful little boy. He has got beautiful coverage all the way down his legs. He has a beautiful head, nicely fleeced. He's a real good example of a Suri Alpaca and will do well in a show room."
