D'Lux Meadow Alpacas

Description

Bijou is a son of 4-time banner winner GVA Belafonte who (like his half-sister, our own Mojolica) kept his fiber fineness as he aged. Belafonte's AFDs were 25.7 and 26.8 at ages 12 and 13. Pretty respectable for a black male.

Bijou's dam, Tanglewood Black Pearls, is no slouch in the pedigree category either. Her sire is 9-time banner winner Sierra Bonita's Sirius Black and her dam, Serenity Linn, is the result of a linebreed of two of 6Peruvian Rufino offspring. And who is 6Peruvian Rufino? The sire of Arizona Sage and maternal grandsire of SBS Crown Prince.

Bijou has gorgeous luster, excellent conformation and carries himself with a proud, confident presence. Despite his "macho" appearance, he is kind and easygoing with the other alpacas and he is an absolute joy to lead and handle. We are looking forward to many outstanding crias from this terrific male and we want to thank Lona Frank of Alpacas of Tulatin Valley for letting us add this incredible male to our herd.
