We are very pleased to have Zaire in our herd. What a standout!! Great bone density, very uniform color, and fineness with a superior disposition. His dam, Snowmass Illuminescense, was bred to Snowmass Elite Legend when we bought her. Since his birth, Zaire has become one of our main herdsires. We sent Zaire's fiber to Alpacapalooza in April 2017. Taking 2nd place at 7 months of age, Sharon Loner, the fiber judge, wrote on his fiber score card "The fiber is very uniform in Color".
