SURI STUD MALES

SURI STUD MALES. SURI STUD MALE ALPACAS at Spring Farm. We have always strived to include the best genetics in our alpaca breeding program by utilising the very best stud males – in both huacaya and suri – available to us. To further enhance our breeding program, we have selected from amongst the worlds best suri genetics culminating in world class blood lines from MacGyver, Torbio, Helios, Bruxo, Ganador, Uribe, Moon River’s Durango, Surilana Silvertail and Travatore. These suri stud males are a roll call of outstanding suri genetics and are now available in the UK both through Spring Farm and in the case of our shared males with West Wight Alpacas, via our joint venture: Suri Stud.

Houghton Tailor Made (DoB 15/5/2016)

 
Tailor Made

We first saw Tailor Made in the Suri Light Male Class at the 2018 BAS Nationals. Tailor Made won his class and then went on to win Champion Light Suri Male. Then in the Championship line up against a number of the UK's best suris, Tailor Made won Supreme Champion! Needless to say we were seriously impressed and bought Tailor Made for Suri Stud - our joint venture with Neil and Michelle Payne from West Wight Alpacas - in the Summer of 2018.

Tailor Made has all of the positive traits that we aspire to reproduce in our breeding programmes. On a solid true to type balanced and compact frame his fleece is dense, fine, uniform and with a high degree of lustre.

Houghton Hall imported Tailor Made's sire Travatore from New Zealand for his exceptional quality of fleece and outstanding breeding. Travatore's progeny have excelled in the UK showring since arriving in the UK but Tailor Made is the only son of his to have won Supreme Champion at the BAS National Halter Show.

We have very high expectations for Tailor Made's progeny. They are already stamping their authority on UK alpaca shows. One of his sons - Spring Farm King Arthur - has taken 5 Championships already in 2021 and 2022. At the Heart of England Fleece Show 2022 we entered 7 crias sired by Tailor Made and every one scored 80 marks or above. The icing on the cake was Springfarm Blizzard (sired by Tailor Made) getting Best of British Suri at the Show with a mark of 85 points!

Springfarm King Arthur (DoB 23/5/2020)

 
Multiple champion Brown suri stud male in sussex
Brown suri stud male champion fleece

Springfarm King Arthur was sired by Houghton Tailor Made - our jointly owned stud male. Tailor Made was Supreme Champion Suri at the BAS Nationals 2018 having won the light class and King Arthur has followed in his footsteps. His Dam, Spring Farm Marie Antoinette is herself a Supreme Champion Brown suri - so his genetics are second to none!

We realised King Arthur was special from an early age. He has been shown in both halter classes and also his fleece in separate fleece shows. He holds multiple Championships for each of the 3 years he has been shown in. He has not been beaten in the brown suri classes for 3 years where shown (including the Nationals) and his only reserve Championships is where he was placed in the fawn classes at the 2022 Nationals. We had also entered his fleece...so he was Reserve Champion Fawn and Champion Brown Fleece at the same BAS National Show!

King Arthur has a wonderful temperament and until recently was part of our walking boy team. He worked for the first time as a two year old and we cant wait to see his first crias.

Pucara Sur-real Rapper of Springfarm (DoB 24/7/2006)

 

Wow! Rapper is an extremely striking and phenotypically correct suri. His lustre stands out even on a dull day and is very evident on opening his fleece. His exceptional lock structure together with this lustre was what made him stand out while being selected, but the density and handle to his fleece are also very impressive. His sire (Moon River’s Peruvian Durango) was sought by experienced and successful suri breeders – Pucara Alpacas of America.

In 2007, before he started the process of travelling to the UK, he attanded 4 shows in the US as a junior. He received three 2nd places rosettes and then went on to the AOBA Nationals where he was 1st in his class and took the Brown Suri Male Championship out of a total entry of 69 brown male suris!

Since joining our stud team, Rapper has consistently produced brown and fawn cria who have themselves gone on to win Championships in the UK. Springfarm Krug taking Champion Brown Suri Male at the Futurity 2011, Reserve Champion at the Futurity 2012 and again in 2013! Springfarm Kaiser took Reserve Champion Brown Suri Male at the Futurity 2011 and swapped with Krug to take the Champion Brown Suri male at the 2012 (now retired to stud so not available to challenge in 2013)! Rapper is consistently producing show winning cria and at the 2013 Futurity only 9 crias of his were entered and placed as follows: 1,1,1,1,2,2,3,4,5 plus 2 Reserve Championships – contact us now to add his genetics to your herd. Rapper then went on to take BAS National dark herd sire of the year 2014!
Rapper continues to produce stunning cria. At the BAS Nationals in 2019, Rapper's cria took 3 First place rosettes, 1 Fourth place rosette and his cria - Springfarm Toreador - went on to take Champion Brown Suri Male.

Pickett’s Farm Lensky

 
Lensky - appaloosa suri alpaca

Lensky is an appaloosa suri stud male alpaca - a very rare breed!

Although Lensky was not born here at Spring Farm, his dam and sire are both Spring Farm alpacas. We could not resist adding him to our stud male list given both his highly unusual coloration and the genetics he combines. His sire is Alfonzo who is featured below on this page and needs little introduction. His dam is Springfarm Mishka who is a Rapper daughter. Lensky's genetics therefore combine Torbio, Snowmass Ice Dancer, Rapper and Suri Classic Dream!

Lensky is jointly owned by Spring Farm Alpacas and West Wight Alpacas. Please contact us for details of mating fees or see http://www.suristud.co.uk/ for more details. Owing to a lack of suitable females, we have decided that we will offer Lensky up for sale - please see our "for sale" page.

Second fleece for fawn suri stud male - Tolstoy
Thistledown Tolstoy with New Zealand championships

Thistledown Tolstoy of Spring Farm. Tolstoy joined us  in November 2022. Before he left New Zealand, Molly Gardner entered his junior fleece into the New Zealand National Show where he took Reserve Champion Fawn.

Tolstoy's sire is Surilana Silvertail. Surilana Silvertail was selected to improve Molly Gardner's Thistledown Herd's coloured suri fleeces. Silvertail is a black skinned fawn with a fleece which is super dense, has extreme lustre and is very uniform in micron. He has prominant Accoyo males in his pedigree through Icalon, Bartok and T-Pito. We are very fortunate to have have been able to add his progeny - Tolstoy - to our breeding programme.

Tolstoy is a very dense male out of one of Molly's best females - Tula. He was shorn as an 8.5 month old and clipped 1.8kg. His fleece stats in his first fleece were 17.7AFD with an SD of 4.5!  His second fleece was 20.8AFD with an SD of 4.5. He has beautiful lustre and an excellent frame but density is his real feature. He has a lot of Accoyo genetics through his pedigree. His sire Surilana Silvertail has the famous Icalon as his grandsire and his dam has Ferrari and Santino 2 on her side.

Tolstoy has just turned 3 and will be working in 2023 where we expect great things in his progeny!

Springfarm Roman (DoB 16/6/2016)

 
White suri stud male

Roman is sired by the hugely influential MacGyver's Aslan of Suri Stud, one of only two MacGyver sons ever imported into the UK. The other son is also a Suri Stud (our joint venture with West Wight Alpacas in the Isle of Wight) owned male. Roman's dam, Jessica, was herself sired by a then co-owned male - Inca Fusion - who was Futurity herdsire in 2011. Every one of Jessica's crias has been shown.

Roman is a great example of the suri phenotype, with excellent conformation. He maintained his fineness within 1.5 microns at the age of 3 over and above his first fleece. This is quite an achievement on our abundant and extensive wildflower meadow grazing! On top of this, his steady calm nature has led him to be one of our most dependable alpaca walking males which will serve him well when being handled in the future.

Roman has had enduring Show successes. As a junior in 2017 he was Champion white suri male at the South of England. As an intermediate, in 2018, he took first place suri white male at the BAS Nationals and again at the South of England. As an adult, in 2019, he once again took first place white suri male at the BAS Nationals and the South of England - and the Eastern Alpaca Group too for good measure.

Roman has now progressed from our walking team to our stud male group and will be available for outside matings in 2021/2.

Snipers Peruvian Victor of Suri Stud

 

Victor’s sire is Sniper, a true black Macgyver son. Sniper is the most decorated coloured suri alpaca ever in the USA to date. When we first looked at him he was quite a young cria. Our first impression was knockout lustre, he was showing density and he was very, very fine. We did not look at him again until he arrived in the UK and he was in his second fleece. We were delighted that he was showing the fabulous structure that we are all looking for in our suri fleeces, and he had maintained a good level of fineness and that fabulous lustre that originally drew us to him. Victor did not work in 2013 because of his age, however we know he will be keen this year so we should have cria on the ground in 2015 and his offspring will be shown in 2016. He has in his pedigree Bruxo, Macgyver, Ramases, Uribe and Accoyo Gold. His dam PSR Peruvian Persnickety has produced a number of champions and has been a fantastic producer for her US owners.

Victor is jointly owned by Spring Farm Alpacas and West Wight Alpacas. Please contact us or see http://www.suristud.co.uk/ for more details.

DISCOUNTS ON STUD FEES

Discounts apply on multiple stud fees. The first stud fee is at cost. The second fee attracts a 10% discount. For more than 2 matings, further discounts apply – please contact us for details

Mobile Stud Services

Owners of female alpacas can have their newborn crias and mothers on their own farm while the females are remated – by choosing our mobile stud services. Alpacas load easily once halter trained (into a trailer or purpose built van in our case!) and sit (cush) when travelling, making the process of getting your females remated relatively stress free. All of our stud males are halter trained and used to travelling. Typically the male would need to visit approximately every two weeks – until the female is rejecting (spitting off). In our experience, the first mating is normally 70% successful. We should point out that the loading pictures are of Charlie Brown who is not a stud male but had hoped to be! We now have a purpose built van with all creature comforts for travelling our stud male alpacas. Please contact us for more information and see our TERMS AND CONDITIONS

Alpaca Stud Services - Terms & Conditions

We guarantee a live cria on the ground for three days or a free return to service (mileage not included). The live cria guarantee will be honoured subject to a vet post mortem proving that the death was not as a result of negligence. It applies to the original purchaser and is not transferable. All females must be in good health prior to a mobile mating – and should not be offered for mating if in any doubt. We will discuss bio-security prior to a mobile mating taking place. The first visit with our males is free for a 50 mile distance from Spring Farm. For greater distances or return matings, a fee for mileage will be charges (currently £0.55 per mile). If the female has sat three times following successful matings, it is the owner’s responsibility to speak to their vet for advice on the female’s status or offer a substitute female. We will raise an invoice upon a scanned confirmed pregnancy. This scanning service is free – subject to being within 50 mile distance of Spring farm – otherwise a mileage fee will apply. Payment terms are strictly within 30 days.
