Pleasant Journey Alpacas is very pleased to announce NeverSummer's Manchester. This 2 year old male is our newest upcoming jr. herdsire. Manchester is a wonderful deep rich dark brown (almost maroon color) .38 Special son that is already a show stopper. He will be wowing the show circuit in 2012 and beyond! Manchester has the gorgeous dark brown fleece with black points and with his background from .38 Special and NeverSummer's Ladysmith, he is sure to produce incredible color of brown, black or grey. His fleece is dense and bright with wonderful handle, bundling and defintion. Manchester is a very big boned male and has incredible presence and conformation. As he matures he is just getting better and better.

**Manchester takes home the Blue Ribbon in his class at GWAS 2012. Stated as "clear class winner with fineness, density and handle to his fleece".** Manchester added yet another ribbon to his name by taking a second place in a very strong class of 6 brown 2yr old males at FallFest 2012.

Manchester's juvenile histogram is MFD 16.3, SD 3.6, CV 22.0 and 0.5%>30. Awesome, YES!
2012 histogram is MFD 19.0, SD 4.0, CV 21.1 and %>30 1.5% (sheared 5/8/12)
