Spring is ahead of itself above the 45th parallel this year. The Juvee's are a tight knit group, leaving the hay tables behind to do what they love to do....graze! But the pickens are slim at this time of year, so the hay tables are still on the menu.

Time to start thinking about 2011 Crias! Check out the Northern Michigan "Conan" connection

We have just gone through a great strech of sunny days and temperatures approaching 60 degress up here above the 45th Parallel. How can you not get spring fever?? And as alpaca breeders, our thoughts turn to the breeding decisions soon to come.

Odds are, you have heard of Conan. He is a bit older now, but his offspring have left their mark in the showrings over the years. If you are looking for color and Conan genetics, check out his two grandsons, Royal Dalton and Snow Lordd. Half-interest is only $5,000 for each one, making breeding to quality herdsires very affordable. They have been shown and are blue ribbon winners. They are worth a look.
