We currently have four fantastic alpacas, with one on the way! Our goal is to increase our herd with only high-quality alpacas that have excellent fiber and other desireable characteristics.
WIN Dixie
Miss Dixie is the matriarch of our herd. She is a daughter of the famous PPeruvian Omar. She has great conformation with dense, richly-colored dark fawn fiber, the strong bone structure of her sire, as well as his abundance of fiber. She's a wonderful mom, but makes sure everyone keeps in line, including the two-legged caregivers. She came to us from Pegi and Arnie at Windmill Farm in MN. She gave birth to Denali (below) in June of 2005 and we can't wait to see her next cria! She was bred to Denali's sire again (Jupiter from Windmill Farm) and is due in August 2006! (Her photo is shown on the left side of this page and below, with our handsome Denali.)
HERDSIRE: MFI Peruvian White Shadow
Are you looking for pure Peruvian perfection? Shadow has it!
He is currently standing at stud, with limited breedings available for 2008.
Shadow has dense, beautifully-lustrous, incredibly soft fiber. He has excellent head-to-toe coverage, perfect bite, a gentle personality, and great solid conformation. He has already sired some beautiful crias!
Micron at age 1.5: 18.8/4.6/2.6
Shadow's sire is PPeruvian Emilio (dubbed a "fiber machine") and his dam is PPeruvian Nusta.
Please contact us for more information on utilizing White Shadow to add pure Peruvian genetics to your herd! (See his photo below.)
Heartwood Farm's Denali's Promise
What can we say about Denali? Not only is he handsome, but he has a most wonderful personality! He loves to give "alpaca kisses"! He is also very curious, and smart--you can see him thinking about what's around him, taking it all in before making any moves. We have very high hopes for this young male. After all, he is the famous PPeruvian Omar's grandson! (He is shown on the left side of this page and below, with his mom, Miss Dixie.)
Keep an eye on him, ladies, he's going to be something fantastic!
Heartwood Farm's Kobayashi Maru
Oh, my gosh, what can we say about little Kobi? He's got beautiful conformation, nice thick crimpy fiber, and a cute little white spot by his nose. Dixie's son, and she did a great job once again! Born in August, he's a perfect little boy.
Hershey
Hershey came to us from Rum River Alpacas in Oak Grove, MN, at a time when we weren't even looking for another alpaca. But we needed a companion animal, and he happened by at the right time. The clincher for us was his beautiful color--he's the color of warm chocolate. Grandpa Loren has spoiled him rotten--he now comes running to the fence when he sees Grandpa with a handful of dandelion greens!
