SOPRIS CHENOA

Taka Number is a great all around male, but is extremely strong in staple length and throwing this trait in his offspring. His 6th fleece won the fleece competition at the EDU, back in 2018, competing against 52 other fleeces, 3 years old or younger. That sums up how his traits are holding up. Taka has outstanding architecture, in a huge, fine, dense fleece that typically is 4 1/2" - 5 1/2" in length at shearing time. The amount of fleece that comes off this animal is eye opening. His neck fleece is just as good as his prime blanket, and nearly as long. At 7, he is still retaining decent fineness for a breeding male, along with a very soft, dense fleece, with a long, well defined staple. His offspring to date, are all nice improvements over the dams, and their brightness stands out! They all have a long staple as well, although the architecture is fairly varied. We proudly co-own Taka with both Stoneberg Alpacas and Crescent Moon Ranch.
