PLEASE NOTE: Because we are very interested in the welfare of our alpaca pals when they go to their new homes, there are some requirements we insist on the Buyer having in place before the sale and delivery is final. We want to see that the Buyer has the means to properly care for an alpaca sold to them. The Buyer agrees that they have no intention of harming the alpaca they are buying. The alpaca will not be hunted or slaughtered for meat or hide. The Buyer will show the Seller the Buyer's ability to provide proper shelter, fencing, food, and a companion alpaca by using FaceTime or a video made by the Buyer and sent to the Seller before the sale or within 48 hours of the sale of the alpaca at auction.
Khloe's claim to fame is the LONG staple length she puts on her babies. Her cria from 2022, Iona, had amazing length of 5 1/2" and as a yearling she sold quickly because of it! Khloe's latest offspring is VIVIANNE (beige) whose dad is Antonio (true black) with a 20.6 micron at 15 years!
Khlo-khlo just had another female cria (beige out of white!) in June of 2024 (Vivianne), the result of a breeding to true black Antonio of Golden Pines who has a 22.7 micron in his 10th year! This Labor Day Auction is for Khloë and includes a breeding to Antonio again or to any of our herdsires to whom she is not related. We would recommend a spring breeding for her.
