Description
Romulus is a truly stunning solid fawn boy. He has perfect conformation and a soft, very bright, dense and luxuriously handling fleece with a bold medium frequency crimp style which is consistent throughout the blanket and into the extremities. His father's fleece at 7 years had an mfd of 17.7 microns and his mother's at 9 years had an mfd of 23.4 microns - so he is very likely to maintain fineness into old age. Romulus started working in 2015 and all of the five girls he was put to scanned as pregnant. He has produced many more cria since in - mainly darker colours but some lights and whites plus true blacks and a stunning proper modern grey. Many have gone on to win championships in their classes. Romulus is very fertile and most females are pregnant after one service. If you are breeding for colour with fleece qualities to challenge the best whites, you should certainly consider using Romulus in your breeding programme. Romulus II is co-owned with Latton Alpacas Limited with whom stud services maybe also be arranged. Please contact either Snowshill Alpacas or Latton Alpacas (07783417618) to enquire about dates for where he will be standing through the season.
