Details
Thank you, JLS Alpacas, for your purchase of Keltie and her gorgeous female cria, Keket!
Keltie delivered a lovely black female cria on 9/23/23. Her cria's name is Keket -- a mythical goddess of darkness. Keket's sire is none other than 6X Champion (incl 2023 AOA IFA Fleece Champion + Best Brightness) Man in the Moon's Rigel. Rigel comes from lines with Matrix Majesty behind him and he's out of CCNF Leviathan, who has been an incredibly prepotent male. What a pleasant surprise that the pairing of Keltie and Rigel produced black! Keket is spunky and silky soft. It's very exciting to see that Keket's fleece is starting to develop a pronounced crimp style, too. I'm not exactly surprised knowing the fleece characteristics of both her dam and sire. The handle is amazing and her fleece is extremely fine. Can't wait to see how her fleece develops!
We purchased Keltie at the 2015 Double O. Good auction. She was a head turner then and continues to be one of the most "showy" girls in the herd. Keltie is strong and solidly built. She has a very pleasing body style with gorgeous conformation, excellent size, great head, and heavy bone -- and full coverage fleece from her head down to her toes. She consistently has one of the heaviest cutting fleeces each year. We've come to love her quirky and inquisitive nature. She has proven to be a very good mom, with easy birthing and plenty of milk.
Keltie's offspring thus far have been competitive in the show ring. We especially love Keltie's 2017 male offspring, Deimos (out of TGF Freestyle -- a Matrix Majesty line), who is a gorgeous dark fawn that garnered 1st Place and Best Bred & Owned as a yearling (19 months old) at the 2018 MAPACA show. He's been in more than one halter class where the judge indicated that every alpaca that placed had excellent fineness, character, and density, and that it was an extremely tough decision on placement.
