Spring Show Season
Well the spring show season is over (at least for me) and the alpacas are happy to be back home kicking up their legs and rolling around in the dirt!! Six alpacas traveled to the MOPAC show in Kansas City on March 29-30th. The following are the results of the alpacas that were taken to the show.
2nd Place - AHL's Chalco Beau - True Black Juvenile - Class size of 11
2nd Place - AHL's Wreadwood - Dark Brown Juvenile - Class of 6
2nd Place - Red Granite's MR Blazen Hot - Medium Brown Yearling - Class of 6
1st Place - AHL's Honey Dancer - Light Fawn Juvenile - Class of 6
1st Place and Color Champion - AHL Javelin's Spice Girl - Class of 18
AHL's Rock of Ages - did not place in a competitive white class
The grand show of all shows - The Futurity was held April 13-14th. This show draws farms from all over the country and there were several farms that were there that have hundreds of alpacas. To get ANY ribbon at this show is quite an accomplishment. Five alpacas traveled to the show with me (Sheri) and my parents. We had a good time and the good news for us was all five alpacas got ribbons!!
5th Place - AHL's Wreadwood
4th Place - Red Granite's MR Blazen Hot
3rd Place - AHL's Chalco Beau
2nd Place - AHL's Honey Dancer
2nd Place - AHL Javelin's Spice Girl - OF NOTE - SPICE GIRL CAME IN 2ND NOT ONLY TO THE COLOR CHAMPION BUT THE ALPACA THAT BEAT HER WAS ALSO THE FEMALE JUDGES CHOICE WINNER SO SHE HAD SOME REALLY STIFF COMPETITION!
Very proud of all the alpacas and their placement at the spring shows this year. Now the next item in 10 days for them to look forward to is shearing !!!
