Dia is a light fawn proven Huacaya female. She was born July 19, 2007 from dam, Dakota; sire, WRA Diego. She is dual-registered, CLAA and ARI. Her fleece is dense with a soft handle exhibiting low frequency crimp. Dia's fleeces have won seven spin-off ribbons for the years 2008 - 2011.
Dia is a large, conformationally correct female, usually weighing about 200 lbs after giving birth. Shorn in April 2011 at 232 lbs, Dia was 212 lbs by June 2011; then 197 lbs in November 2011. It is evident that, unlike some dams, Dia carries a healthy weight through her pregnancies and maintains it while nursing. She has had three healthy cria with birth weights of 18.5 (Fedra), 18.3 lbs (Fira) and 17.2 lbs (Freya). Dia was 110 lbs at 1 year old, the same weight as her 1st cria, Fedra (for sale), at that age - so she does pass on her size to her cria.
Dia is easily bred and carries an average 362 days with no birthing or lactating difficulties.
