And the winners were....

A very compact tidy fawn Huacaya intermediate male got Supreme and the reserve champion fawn  another intermediate male also took reserve show champion. The standard of alpacas at this show was very high and competition was stiff throughout.

The champion Suri was a white junior with a very fine and lustrous fleece showing good independence and layering.

A great alpaca day was had by all, over 1400 people attended and the weather was just dandy congratulations to the winner, commiserations to the losers and thankyou all for taking part.

TOFT Ikrit is now safe and sound at Alpacamundo and looking for female company ...

In one end and out the other, almost as easy as posting a letter. 24 hrs after his departure from TOFT on Friday evening our Prizewinning Stud Male TOFT Ikrit arrived in the safe hands of his new owners in Holland on Saturday evening. Today he'll be out in his paddock eyeing up the Dutch talent.

Congratulations Alpacamundo Alpacas we hope this boy will give you many elite alpacas to enjoy and thank you LOC Ltd animal transport for a very efficient service.

TOFT on tour in Buchloe...

Started the fleeces this evening still got 40 to get through in the morning before the halter starts in the afternoon. I shall have to work like the Duracell bunny to get through 180 alpacas and the fleeces and get the medals dished ouT by early doors Sunday. Alpaca breeders enter this show from France, Italy,Switzerland  and all points North and South. They drive for hours to get here and I'd like to get them on their way as early as possible on Sunday. One things certain they won't be hanging around to talk to the judge after the show.
