We initially called this male alpaca Zinger 2 before we finally named him Sawdust's Tabasco. A cria born on our farm will have a wooden name. Tabasco is a Prima Vera wood (white Mahogany) from Honduras. Tabasco was born on October 5, 2022, weighing 19.7 pounds. He is more beige than the fawn color of his sire, Alpaca Palace's Zinger. Tabasco has excellent conformation and a nice, crimped fiber. We have high hopes of showing him in the spring shows.
On April 28-30, 2023, we proudly entered Tabasco in the combined show (Great Western Alpaca/Rocky Mountain Alpaca Showcase) held in Denver, CO. Despite being one of the youngest alpacas competing, among over 325 entries, Tabasco's 6th place in the walking fleece category was a remarkable feat. We are eagerly anticipating his performance in the next show in October.
In October 2023, we entered Tabasco in the Gold Country Gathering and CA Classic combined shows held in Orland, CA. He performed admirably, placing 6th in Walking Fleece, 2nd in the Gold Country Gathering Halter Show, and 3rd in the CA Classic Halter Show.
We have entered Tabasco again in the Great Western Alpaca Show and Rocky Mountain Alpaca Showcase, which will be held in Cheyenne, WY, from May 3-5, 2024. We are eagerly anticipating his performance this year and can't wait to share the results with you!
Tabasco possesses excellent genetics, conformation, fiber, and a calm disposition, making him a fantastic package. He is, by far, our favorite alpaca born that year!
