M.R.S. Floracita
One of our favourite foundation animals, Floracita is a large, well built female, just like her dam. Even tempered, she is patient when being handled and she makes for an excellent dam.
She has a beautiful face with very expressive eyes. Flora shares April's strong build, with nice proportions and good, solid bone. Her fleece has retained its crimp and style even into her breeding years, and is nearly indistinguishable from animals much younger than her without close examination.
Although Flora continually produces conformationally correct cria who grow to be nearly as large (if not as large) as her and she is an excellent mother, she has struggled with her last few pregnancies and lactation periods to maintain her body condition and overall wellbeing. As such, she is being offered as a non-breeding fibre/companion female only, and would make an excellent fit for any home that wants an animal
who can still produce 5+lbs of soft fleece a year, but who is also motherly enough to baby-sit the other alpaca's cria while they do their own thing. Flora has had a long and successful production career, and deserves a quiet retirement where she can just rest, relax, and enjoy herself.
