Looking for a unique gift for the alpaca lover in your life, or maybe a fun way to treat yourself to enjoy alpacas without the daily chores?
This alpaca color genotype calculator offers three ways to predict your cria's color depending on what you know about your animals.
With a herd rooted in rich and diverse genetics, we're confident in our ability to provide you with high-quality, healthy productive alpacas-especially our favorite color- true black. As black fleece continues to be the most sought-after and valuable color, we've continued to focus on breeding exceptional black alpacas—prioritizing strong conformation and continuously improving fleece quality. We use the GCPM™ (Generationally Confirmed Phenotype Model) for breeding black alpacas in addition to other tools like histograms, etc.
While our focus may be breeding top-quality black alpacas, we’re proud to have award-winning alpacas in other stunning colors too. No matter the color, our commitment to conformation, fleece quality, health and genetic excellence remains the same.
At Skyfiber Alpacas, we believe in hands-on learning experiences. You're welcome to spend time with our alpacas—get to know them, bond with them, and fall in love with them just like we did. We’re here to guide you through every step, from setting up your farm to choosing the right animals for your goals and learning how to confidently care for them.
