4/10/17 Our first of the season and what a guy. ARI # 35222385. A whopping 23.5 lbs birth weight and gaining a pound a day. Sawdust Alpacas is very pleased with this boy, very well put together. Great phenotype and bone structure. His crimp style carries 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 on from her Lennox line, being Medium Brown, Thunder is our PR alpaca. He loves to meet people, and sometimes will give kisses. Great personality and disposition. He has soft handled, dense fiber. With a 22 micron count, Thunder's fiber can be used for so many products. Thunder has his first cria on the ground! 9/29/20 - Sawdust's Jarrah . This girl definitely has her dad's coloring and size. She was 17.9 lbs at birth. 5/29/21 Thunder's 2nd cria - a brown male with a white face, named Koko. 2022 Thunder's cria are Sawdust's Babanus, male born 9/29/22 and Sawdust's Murwiti born 10/6/22 and on another farm, Jasper born 10/04/22 to Estate's Brazilian Agate. Thunder has produced some ribbon winning offspring! You won't go wrong adding Thunder as a herdsire on your farm!!! Babanus and Murwiti and Koko will all be participating at Great Western Alpaca Show/Rocky Mountain Alpaca Showcase in Denver CO 4/28-4/30/23. Great Western Alpaca Show/Rocky Mountain Alpaca Showcase.

Certificate Histogram

Sawdust's Babanus was born 9/29/22 weighing in at 16.5 pounds. Up and going in no time at all. . Babanus is a common name for African Blackwood. Seemed to fit him. He is such a cute little guy! Babanus has dense, crimpy fiber, with good bone structure and conformation thrown into his makeup. His fiber looks pretty brown but actually is very black with hints of brown in it. We think he will be a show winner come spring.

Babanus' dam is Joey's Stargazer Lilly (a medium brown) bred to our herdsire, Sawdust's Almond Thunder (also a brown). Babanus takes after his sire in disposition - Usually always calm and friendly around people. Ignore him and he will chew on your shirt to get your attention. Thunder does that too.

Update: 4/15/23 - Babanus will be going to the Great Western Alpaca Show/Rocky Mountain Alpaca Showcase in Denver, CO on April 28 - 30, 2023. He will be in several different classes, including one called "Get of Sire" where 3 alpacas from the same sire are judged in the ring at the same time to see how many traits their sire has passed onto them. Obviously, we are hoping he shows well.

Babanus was classified as Dark Brown during the color check in for GWAS/RMAS. They did not consider him to be BayBlack He placed 2nd in GWAS Halter, 3rd in the RMAS Halter and 6th in Walking Fleece. Babanus was the youngest alpaca in his color/age class out of 325 registered show alpacas. So we are very pleased with his results. Babanus will definitely be a contender in the next show for us or for you.
