Honey Bee
Honey Bee is a fantastically fibered animal. Though she looks white in the photos, she's actually vicuna patterned with a rich, well, honey-colored blanket and a beige underbelly.honeybee-fiber.jpg She has high-frequency crimp and long staple length combined with great density and fineness.

Her dam retained her <22 micron fineness past her 5th year and we're looking to Honey Bee to do the same. She's a knockout who is adding her amazing fiber characteristics to our breeding program. Her dam is our Honeycomb, a finely fleeced girl. Her sire is our Snow Blind, a full Peruvian, 3/4 Accoyo son of Royal Fawn.
