Poplar Hill's Peruvian Nutmeg

Poplar Hill’s Peruvian Nutmeg is a Full Peruvian Bay Black Dam that has a dense soft handled fleece that still shows character at her 4th shearing. She is the daughter of AG Peruvian Alejandro, a True Black 2X Reserve Champion and 6X – Blue Ribbon winner that pushes deep color into his offspring. Her Dam, FCA Peruvian Maravilla is a Med. Silver Grey female out of HA Shades of Gray. Maravilla consistently has given Poplar Hill’s Alpacas either Black or Grey award winning cria, and Nutmeg was no exception.

Nutmeg was bred to Poplar Hill's premier herdsire Renosant’s Peruvian El Corazon, a beautiful Light Fawn male, for her maiden breeding. We were thrilled with the result, a Bay Black female.

For Nutmeg’s 2014 cria we decided to try and bring out the grey in her background by pairing her with North Star, our Silver Grey McGwire son. We think this will also produce a fabulous cria as North Star has a beautiful long stapled fleece that exhibits very nice character and a soft handle.

It is hard to let Nutmeg go as she isn’t related to our males and we love her genetics, but our need to downsize creates a great opportunity for you!
