DESCRIPTION: What can we say about the apple of our eye? Breeders always talk of finding the alpaca that is the complete package and Archangel is the closest thing to that that we have ever had the privilege of laying our eyes on. His fiber is superior to any white alpaca we have come across, yet it grows on a frame that is nearly perfect in form and function. The comments from the judges throughout the spring 2004 show seasons when comparing Archangel to his competition were always to the effect of "this animal was not tip shorn as a cria, and is therefore starting to mat at the tips, yet the fleece is gorgeous once you open it." In fact Archangel was shorn to the skin at 30 days of age (removing 1.5" to 2" at the time), yet is so fine and grows such a staple length that even with that shearing he still had on average anywhere from 2" to 3" inches more staple length than the vast majority of the animals he was in the ring with. Show record aside we feel he is the next generational prototype. We take great pride in the fact that our breeding program has produced such an alpaca and the offspring that have resulted (his oldest kids are now yearlings and showed throughout the ’07 season) have proven without any doubt that Arch was and is no genetic fluke. As of January 2008 Archangel will no longer be offered for outside stud service. We proudly co-own Archangel with our friends Ryen & Ursula Munro of Tripping Gnome Farm Alpacas!
