Maserati is the “Renaissance Man” for Suri Alpacas. He has is all!
Let’s start with his fleece. Open him up, anywhere on his body, including his legs, and you’ll find lustrous, ropey, dense, fine locks. His consistency is incredible. His density is incredible. His luster is incredible. The quality and the quantity of his fleece is exceptional.
One thing that is very important to me is an alpaca’s temperament. Maserati not only is very obedient and very gentle, he is perhaps the most intelligent alpaca on my farm. I’ve been “clicker-training” him and he is the most receptive and the absolute fastest learner that I have. The only limiting factor in his training is the trainer, me.
Let’s go to his pedigree. His sire is the Herdsire of Champions, Accoyo Torbio. He has all the positive, Accoyo traits that the pre-potent Torbio has been known to pass on. His dam is My Peruvian Capellini, a multiple blue ribbon dam of exceptional quality. She is by the rare and highly sought after Olajuwon, a true black known for throwing beautiful grey offspring. Capellini’s dam, 4Peruvian Marinera, is one of the The Alpaca Trading Company’s finest producing dams. Capellini has phenomenal fleece coming back, year after year, and is the one in Maserati’s pedigree passing on a keen intelligence and beautiful color genes. This production package of AccoyoTorbio and Capellini is rock-solid!
In the Championship circle, Maserati competed against and won Champion over the male that won championships at both the 2006 AOBA Nationals and the All American Futurity. In the shows that Maserati participated, he always came home with top winnings. He’s a multiple champion in both halter and fleece shows.
In his first year of production, Maserati produced 4 color champions on our small ranch, one of which took Judge's Choice at the 2009 AOBA National Conference! He is definitely proving to be an incredible, consistent herd sire.
