TB Multi-Champ w/Grey Genetics!

SoCal Greystone's Marko

Our Marko is a real sleeper--he's absolutely gorgeous, and we think he has valuable depth of genotype AND phenotype. Marko has silky, well- demarcated pencilled black locks to the skin with gorgeous luster. He has a PERFECT head! The judges at the West Coast Alpaca show (Wade Gease and Winnie La Breque--THEY know a thing or 2 about suris,...) LOVED him and awarded him 2 halter championships, including the prestigious Champion Processing-Length Suri--for ALL shorn suris--male and female! He is calm and manageable, and has a sturdy, compact, correct and balanced frame. We LOVE this guy!

Oooh...now here's a tantalizing "factoid". Marko's FULL Sister, Siriana, just had an appy/rose grey cria by Balboa of PVA, who is true black. Siriana is true black like her brother, but this means she is probably phenotypically black and GENOTYPICALLY appy/Modern Grey! We think Marko might carry the same genotype! And in his last 2 shows, Marko color-checked as "indeterminant dark""--basically black with a regular distribution of white fibers. Sure sounds a lot like a very dark grey....

With his potential for grey (from sire, Greystone), and black genetics going back to Sirius Black and Kobe, Greystone's Marko has it all.

Cindy Harris of Alpacas at Windy Hill was transporting Marko to GWAS, and fell in love with him. We are now partners in Marko! We are honored that Cindy sees the same great potential in this male that we do. He spent the summer of 2016 at Alpacas at Windy Hill working on his resume.

Marko has finished his sabbatical at Windy Hill, having produced 3 BLACK and 2 BROWN crias, with more to come next year!

Marko can be found at Alpacas of Marin in the North San Francisco Bay area.
