Any colour variations will be assessed at time of inspection. The chief steward may move animals into a different colour class upon inspection of exhibit. Exhibits shall not have fleece of a different colour to that of the blanket removed from an animal to a level below that of the blanket fleece. Guides to colour classifications: White: constitutes a pristine, bright white fleece. [NB: white animals with light fawn on the neck or backline should be entered in the light fawn class]. Light fawn: alpacas with a cream or off white fleece or that have light fawn on the neck or backline. Grey: a predominantly grey alpaca is to be shown in a grey class, whether or not it has any other coloured spots present and any colour variations will be assessed at the Judge’s discretion. The grey classes will include light greys, medium greys, dark greys and rose greys. Roan: an alpaca that is fawn, brown or black with white fibres through the blanket of the fleece. A roan usually appears externally to be a solid fawn, brown or black, until the fleece is opened, at which time the white fibres are visible and uniformly interspersed throughout the blanket of the fleece. Fancy: an alpaca is to be shown in a fancy class if it has an unusual or striking distribution of colour e.g. two or more different coloured saddle markings. [NB: An alpaca with a solid saddle of one colour and different colour markings on the head, chest or legs does not constitute a fancy alpaca]. 9 Age of Alpaca Alpacas must be entered into the correct class for their age.
