Cria updates, Part II: Spring Fiber Shots!

Well, um, yeah!

Cria herd health yesterday = cria spring fiber photos! Yesterday was the perfect day for it -- cold, crisp, sunny. I was pretty happy overall with what I saw yesterday, but I was especially happy with the Vivanno cria. Notice the similarity between the last three fleece pictures ... Those are all sired by the same guy (AML El Duro's Vivanno), and out of dramatically different dams (and there is a fourth that looks just like that whose pictures didn't come out great). They all look pretty much the same, too. That is prepotency. (And would you believe that Vivanno was the first herdsire I ever bought, without knowing much of a danged thing about alpacas? ... I know how to do my on-the-fly research, though ...)
