Orinoco is co-owned with our good friends Denise and John Jacobus of Ideuma Creek Alpacas. You really have to see Orinoco to truly appreciate his stellar stature and beautiful body line. We were excited to take away a 3rd place ribbon at the 2012 Northeast Expo. Orinoco's class of 14 was loaded with big names and big farms. He sheared an amazing 12.2 pounds fleece at the show.
Add Orinoco to the list of elite fleece cria Invasion has produced. Bright crimpy bundling fleece all over his neck, his tail, his legs and his blanket is so crimpy and brilliant we're sure this is his first of many awards.
Along with Orinoco's perfect stature and incredible fleece, he has a great personality and mild temperament. He is very easy to handle and show.
Orinoco was named after a river, like his dam, Amazona of Ideuma Creek Alpacas. Now I'm going to go on and on about Orinoco's sire, but his dam is stunning. She is a product of Greg Mecklem's breeding program and was purchased by a small farm just starting up at The Parade of Champions Sale in 2003. She is a Caligula daughter and her AFD of 20 is backed by an amazing CV of only 16.9! She's VERY consistent and she's kept crimp, density and fineness throughout the years. Orinoco is the first Ideuma Creek cria out of Amazona, and they couldn't be any happier.
The first time we looked at Orinoco and opened his fleece our eyes nearly popped out of our heads. His abundace of fleece was amazing it is crimpy, dense, and lustrous. We were sold!
Accoyo Invasion, Orinoco's sire, on the other hand, does have a huge list of accolades. He's an 8X Champion with 16 Blue Ribbons and the Coveted Fleece Awards of Best Brightness and Judge's Choice. His cria have racked up 11 championships and the Fleece Awards of Best Crimp (2) and Best Brightness (3).
Add Orinoco to the list of elite fleece cria Invasion has produced. Bright crimpy bundling fleece all over his neck, his tail, his legs and his blanket is so curly and brilliant we're sure he's going to win awards.
We are pleased to announce our partnership on this special male with Denise and John Jacobus of Ideuma Creek Alpacas.
