Alpaca Stud Stringy Bark

MillDuck Stringy Bark

Sire: MillDuck Jarrah Dam: MillDuck Kristie-Lou
Colour: Solid Dark Brown IAR: 208488. D.O.B: 18.4.2015

Stringy Bark’s Show Record: 21 Broad Ribbons.
Stringy Bark has exceeded all expectations in the Show Ring.
This is not surprising given the consistency in his bloodlines on both sides – by Jarrah out of a Horatio HB daughter. His full brother MillDuck Oregon won 20 broad ribbons including Supreme Brown at Colourbration and Best Brown in Show at the 2012 & 2013 AAA National Shows.

Stringy Bark went to 18 shows to win 21 Broad Ribbons.
He was seriously considered in the final lineup of three for Supreme Champion at an Age Championship Show.
His major achievement in 2016, which I don’t mind admitting brought a tear to my eyes, was at the AAA National Show where he won:

Reserve Champion Intermediate Male
Best Brown in Show (same as big brother Oregon).

It was a “special moment” to have one of our “home grown” brown males take out the Reserve Champion at the Nationals - beating 59 intermediate males including the whites and light fawns from some of the biggest studs in Australia.

His success continued into the 2017 Show Season winning Supreme Brown at Carousel of Colours being the highlight.

Stringy Bark retired from the show ring in 2017 to concentrate on his stud duties.

We love our Stringy Bark - he is a stunning boy with great conformation and fleece qualities..

Stringy Bark’s Progeny:
Due to the closeness of Stringy Bark's genetics to our Jarrah and Horatio lines we have been restricted in the number of females he can be put over. However he has given us some lovely cria from his few matings. Not surprising his progeny have done well in the show ring winning Broad Ribbons in both Age & Colour Championships in their short show career thus far - refer below photos. Stringy will be used more widely in our breeding program as we build more diversity into our genetics in the coming years.
