When purchasing alpacas, is color important in your decision?
And
What is your favorite color.

Favorite colors for alpaca breeding is tied between Black and Gray, very interesting that these are the two most difficult colors to breed for. Perhaps this is what makes them more desirable.
.
Most of those surveyed stated that color is always considered but not an item that was a high priority, Color is taken into consideration after other more important factors such as conformation and fiber fineness.

In order of priority
