| All Fiber Males listed on this page that are available for purchase have been tested negative for BVDV. Fiber males are males that should only be utiilized for fiber production and not for breeding. To secure the quality of breeding alpacas, Fiber males do not sell with breeding rights. Only 5-10% of the alpaca males born in the U.S. are truly herdsire material. The remaining 90-95% of alpaca males are typically gelded and are prized as fiber producers. What might be considered a conformational or genetic fault to a breeder, such as blue eyes, knocked knees, short neck, or long legs, has absolutely no bearing on the quality of the alpaca's fiber. |
