SAWDUST'S TIMBORANA

4/10/17 Our first of the season, and what a guy. ARI # 35222385. Sawdust's Almond Thunder weighed a whopping 23.5 lbs at birth and is gaining a pound a day, a testament to his robust health and potential as a herdsire. Sawdust Alpacas is very pleased with this boy. He is a very well-put-together male with a significant phenotype and bone structure. His crimp style is passed on from his sire, Sunset Hill's Golden Thunder (ARI #31017435) and his dam, Skyline's Almond Joy (ARI # 32821666). His consistent color is passed down from Joy's Lennox line. Thunder is not just a PR alpaca, he's a friendly companion. He loves to meet people and sometimes gives kisses, showing his affectionate nature. He has a great personality and disposition, making him a joy to have on the farm. He has soft-handled, dense fiber. With a 22-micron count, Thunder's fiber can be used for a wide range of products. Thunder's breeding potential is further underscored by his first cria, Sawdust's Jarrah, born 9/29/20. This female, a mirror image of her father in both color and size, weighed 17.9 lbs at birth. Thunder's 2nd cria - a brown male with a white face, named Koko, was born 5/29/21. Thunder's male crias born in 2022 are Sawdust's Babanus, born 9/29/22, and Sawdust's Murwiti, born 10/6/22. Jasper was born on 10/04/22 to Estate's Brazilian Agate at Summer Hill Farm in CA. Thunder has produced some ribbon-winning offspring, a testament to his excellent breeding potential and the quality of his genetics, as shown below! Our Thunder boys, Babanus, Murwiti, and Koko, made their mark at the Great Western Alpaca Show/Rocky Mountain Alpaca Showcase in Denver, CO, 4/28-4/30/23. The results for the Thunder boys are: Babanus: 2nd - Great Western Alpaca Show Halter 3rd - Rocky Mountain A;lpaca Showcase Halter 6th - Great Western Alpaca Show - Walking Fleece Murwiti: 1st - Great Western Alpaca Show - Walking Fleece 2nd - Great Western Alpaca Show - Halter 2nd - Rocky Mountain Alpaca Showcase - Halter KoKo: 3rd - Great Western Alpaca Show - Walking Fleece 5th - Great Western Alpaca Show - Halter KOKO did not participate in the Rocky Mountain Alpaca Showcase. We were very pleased with Thunder's offspring scores in these 2 shows, as they were the youngest in each of their age/sex/color groups. So lots of room for improvement. 2026 We are sad, but excited, to announce our RETIREMENT SALE, where we are offering great discounts on packages and entertaining offers.
