Sophia is that very special alpaca that we all hope to one day have in our own suri herd! She has an exceptional pedigree, exceptional quality, exceptional personality and produces EXCEPTIONAL cria, year after year! Her dam was considered to be one of the finest colored Peruvian female suris to enter the United States. A half-sister to both MacGyver, 3-time Herdsire of the Year at AAA Futurity and Peruvian Gracie (deceased), Sophia has proven her worth on OUR farm and remains one of our premier foundation females.
Sophia's cria have all been 1st place ribbon winners in their classes, including her 2003 Captain Morgan daughter, Satin Doll, who at just a year of age garnered a Color Champion, 2 Reserve Color Champions and four 1st place finishes! Sophia has produced 5 crias out of 5 different sires and they have all been exceptional quality. Her 2007 cria, Sophia's Augustina, was named after her maternal granddam and, given HER quality, she's destined to carry on the award-winning tradition of her dam. Look for her in the showring and prepare to be impressed!
Sophia was the 3rd and final cria birthed by her dam, Peruvian Augustina, who died following the birth (and loss) of her 4th cria. We had no idea WHAT we were doing when we purchased Sophia at 6 months of age, nor did we know what precious commodity we were acquiring. Since then, we have come to appreciate her quality and her uniqueness.
We have not offered any of Sophia's female offspring for sale until now....WP Captain's Pearl Locket LTD is on our sales list - check her out! With 2 daughters of Sophia in our "core herd", we have decided to share this bloodline with the alpaca community. Pearl is sure to produce colored offspring and carries the genotype and phenotype to become a member of anyone's core suri herd.
