Daisy Bank Cassiopeia

Solid Light Brown Female
Date of Birth: 19th April 2002
IAR: A39770

Sire:   Blue Grass Wolfgang (solid white)
          2001 National Reserve Champion Mature Male
          2002 Royal Canberra Champion Fleece
          2002 Royal Sydney Champion Fleece
Dam: Coolaroo Carousel (medium brown)

This little girl is just beautiful. The fleece is lustrous and comprises tight crimpy little bundles. The breeders, Merilyn Mathews and Geoff Pearson, of Daisy Bank Alpacas say the following:

“Daisy Bank Cassiopeia’s mother is an eight year old Chilean type with a fleece of 30+ microns. Cassie is our second female to Blue Grass Wolfgang and possesses excellent conformation and a dense, lustrous, crimpy fleece with a soft handle. She is a marked improvement on her dam and we eagerly await our next Wolfgang cria, due in September. Wolfgang will definitely continue to be part of our breeding program.”

Cassiopeia’s half-sister, Daisy Bank Airlie, is Miss May 2003.

Come see “Cassie” a year later, in Alpaca of the Month, September 2003.
