Yahudi is a quality alpaca who successfully competed against some of the best alpacas in NZ. He is a beautiful champagne fawn colour and has made a very strong start to his stud career. As can be seen from his wonderful cria fleece, this is what he can pass on to his superior-quality offspring and just one of the reasons why he is proving so successful to date.

Bloodline

His sire is Algoma Chaska, winner of many (double figures) Supreme Championships before being sold to Europe. There are very fews of his sons at stud in NZ making this boy even more special and with his whole breeding career ahead of him.

His dam, Eskdale Izarra, was 2nd in her junior class at the Nationals and maintained a very fine fleece being only 22 microns on her 8th fleece. His half-brother Rustic Dawn Columbus is a Supreme Fleece winner (Mackenzie 2014) and already the producer of many broad ribbon winners. This family is high quality!

Showing

Yahudi had a very good show career earning 6 Championships in both the fleece tent and show ring. At Malvern Colourbration (2015) he was only 0.5 pts off Supreme Fleece Champion, with only poor skirting on my part the difference. In the ring he had many successes but perhaps one of his best performances was at Mackenzie 2015 where he finshed 2nd in his class but ahead of the renowned Shamarra Dynamo who was in 3rd place. The winner of the class went on to win Supreme. He competed successfully at the best level in a short career which was curtailed when it was discovered he had a 'bobble tail' at the very last joint. I am sure this was the result of his paddock-mate biting him as he had been checked and been to many shows and checked by many judges prior.

Progeny

Yahudi has already produced 2 outstanding individuals from very limited opportunitiess. It is a strike rate any stud would be proud of:

RD Iolaus is an outstanding show alpaca and dual SUPREME CHAMPION (Sth Cant, Sth Otago 2019) amongst his many other accomplishments. He also won Champion Adult Male Fleece at the Nationals 2020.

RD Rip Van Winkle (14.4 micron 1st fleece) is a dual broad ribbon winner (Sth Otago 2019) in the elite junior white male section. His fleece is of the highest order and has won won a SUPREME CHAMPION (Mackenzie 2021) over some of the very best studs.

Aside from Yahudi's outstanding top class strike rate of Supreme's and quality offsping, his generation impact is now being seen in our herd as a grand-sire through both his male and female offspring.
