He is a rather special male!!!
Jim Watts analysis:
The 14 month old alpaca, FDA Rembrandt, has high levels of fiber density and fiber length. The density reading of 67.7 follicles per square millimeter will be lower when the animal reaches mature body size, but not sufficient to alter the fact that it is a ... |

We looked at Adelante a little while back and were impressed with his density and beautiful, bright, fleece. At the time we didn't have a lot of light-colored females to utilize him but recently we decided to scoop him up. His pedigree shows some classics; El Nino, Pperuvian Legacy & Caligula. His dam won a championship in fawn at the California Classic. Read about his sire, Rembrandt by El Nino, who was awarded championships three times along with a reserve championship in his show career. His skin biopsy was referred to as a high density animal, to quote "This view is supported by the high level of secondary follicle development that has occurred - a secondary follicle to primary follicle ratio of 13.5 to 1 is exceptional for an alpaca." write up from Jim Watts, MV. Sc, Ph.D. Adelante sheared over 9 pounds 9 years old.
Considering that Rembrandt's owners are both well-respected judges, we feel we may have something special here.
This summer he may be busy. A macho guy that we look forward to seeing what he is capable of producing.
His histogram at almost one year was 16.8 and 3.7 SD and following at almost 3 years old was 18.4 and 5.1 SD.
