Description
Close Encounter has a great temperament and nature about him which he has definitely passed down to some of his cria. The biggest quality that Close brings to our herd genetics is great body confirmation and bone structure. He is a striking male with bags of character and shows a really true representation of the Huacaya phenotype.
For his fleece, Close Encounters biggest attribute that he gives is his density. His blanket weight from 2018 was a huge 6kgs, that's double the average weight for an alpacas blanket fleece.
His micron count came back as 27.80 which is heigher than some of our other studs but for Close Encounter's 11th fleece this is still a great number. He had a good SD of 5.20
