MAMGB Wiyaka (Wee-Yah'-Kah) "Feather Down"

MAMGB Wiyaka means Feather Down in Lakota. This name was well earned due to her fleece which is as soft as feather down. She has many crimp per inch, and density. Her blanket characteristics are uniform and carry into her legs, tail, and topknot. Recently assessed she had no guard hair!

Pedigree. On the dams side is Knighthawk of KPR, Johnson S112, and The Kings Ransom. The sire is Cresent Moon Velocity, Cresent Moon Valentino, and Danko.

Conformation. Her neck, body, and legs are in proportion to each other. She has a great frame on strong legs and an excellent bite.

Fleece. AFD=23.2 and SD=5.9 with the average between the Min and Max of 3.55 demonstrates the consistency in what we see in her fleece. Combine this with her staple length and you end up with a lot of nice fleece.

Disposition. Wiyaka has always been a mild mannered young lady with high energy. Today we see her developing into a reserved matron who knows her place in the herd. She is so relaxed that working with her is a joy. Even when pregnant she is tolerant of handling and just gets a little more stand-off-ish.

She is BVD tested negative, has received her CD&T vaccinations, AVID chipped, and ARI registered.

Georgia Meyer of Silver Creek Alpaca sorted and graded Wiyaka. She was impressed with her fleece and stated, "nice, uniform, most versatile for yarn, socks, and knitwear." She graded her WL-3 with 6 out of 10 brightness, 5 of 10 uniformity of crimp, 6 crimp / inch, medium amplitude with a density of 8 out of 10. She graded the fleece dark fawn.

She delivered stunning medium to dark brown or dark fawn female September 6th, 2014 - Iyunka!
She delivered stunning dark brown to bay black female June 18, 2016 - Uome.
She delivered a stunning bay black/black male June 23, 2020 - Phesniza.

We are retiring Wiyaka from our Reserved Breeding Program and are now seeking a farm that would like solid improvement in their production.
