Has a full Australian pedigree and is a super-fine son of EP Cambridge Top Account of Fowbery, who needs no introduction, but just in case you don’t know, Top Account was the 2012 British Alpaca Futurity Huacaya Herdsire Champion and out of approximately 166 progeny Top Account has 12 Supreme Champions, 44 Champions and 22 Reserve Champions. His progeny often returns spectacular fleece microns, Benedict is no exception, with an extremely soft handling, fine and uniform fleece displaying good organisation with defined crimp and above average amplitude and brightness. Benedict’s dam is one of Fowberry’s top performing females, with a sister (same dam) that was a National Colour Champion and fleece Colour Champion.
Sandhills Alpacas now have some impressive females (we may be a little bias) that include Australian genetics from the famous Jolimont Conquistador, Jolimont Warrior, Jolimont Commisario, Jolimont Stephano and Purrumbete Highlander. We are so excited about our cria next year having introduced some elite new genetics already, with our favoured Australian blood lines.
