Alessandro what a handsome young alpaca he is! A gentle male with beautiful pure white crimpy and dense fleece. Stands very proud and has great proportions.
Alessandro's dam, Island Alpaca Angelina, has been awarded One Reserve Champion and Four First Place Ribbons. Angelina has an outstanding heritage which includes her sire, the prestigious 4Peruvian Altiplano.
Alessandro, just like all of his siblings and dam, have an almost perfect phenotype! They have great conformation with a strong frame, they are thick-boned, have impressive top-knots, nice thick short muzzles, and overall a beautiful and pleasing look. Angelina seems to have very strong genetics.
Alessandro's sire, Double Dee Revelation has won six Champions and 10 First Place Ribbons. Revelation's evolution descends from a remarkable lineage beginning with his sire, the multi-champion grey stud, Snowmass Enlightenment who is sired by the multi-champion Snowmass XXXtreme, who is sired by the multi-champion Snowmass Royal Rose.
Revelation's dam's lineage begins with her multi-champion grey sire,
Legend's Challanger of KPR and his sire is the renowned Inca Legend.
Alessandro is growing into quite the alpaca and we look forward to watching him grow!
Angelina has beautifully dense fine fleece, an incredible top-knot, a strong body and a terrific future.
Angelina, was awarded her fifth blue ribbon.
Angelina, at the Empire Fleece event, topped even MFI Astovine, who
took a R. Championship at the AOBA Fleece show! Judge Cheryl R. Gehly
commented that it is "Very fine, soft, and uniform" giving it an 18.5
out of 20 possible points for fineness and handle.
Angelina sheared 5-1/2 pounds of fleece at less than one year of age. This
was 6% of her body weight at the time of her shearing, and is very
impressive when you consider that a typical alpaca shears under 4
percent of fleece in a full year of growth.
With a sweet and gentle disposition, and her good looks, Angelina also has outstanding heritage; Her sire, prestigious 4Peruvian Altiplano,
is an import from the Sollocata region of Peru and has produced an
amazing number of show winners, Angelina included! (She was not shown
prior to this, we could have expected a lot more!)
Her dam, Desni,
is considered one of our best foundation females, a devoted mother,
which we can expect for Angelina, and is a blue-ribbon winner herself
for "Get of Dam" in 2007.
For Angelina's spring breeding 2009, we partnered her with Maple Brook's Angelo
(ARI#: 833149). Angelo combines the genetics of two of the most
recognized Accoyo herdsires in the country, Caligula and Felix, along
with the finest and most notable Allianza male in the country,
Hemingway. At 15.9 micron at 8 months of age Angelo held his fineness
density handle and coverage, and was awarded the well deserved
Championship at the Big E in the Fall of 2003. Angelo's fiber won a blue
ribbon, best brightness, champion and JUDGE'S CHOICE at the 2004 Empire
Extravaganza.
Angelina gave birth in June, 2010 to a truly gorgeous little boy, Angelito. He carries on his dam and sire's angelic tradition, and has himself ribboned in competitive classes.
Double
Dee Revelation is a six time Color Champion and a super grey herd
sire. He is a spectacular grey creation of style, presence,
conformation, highly advanced fleece and profound genetics. His grey
genealogy is unmatched and the breeding is proven.
Revelation's evolution descends from a remarkable lineage beginning with his sire, the multi-champion grey stud, Snowmass Enlightenment who is sired by the multi-champion Snowmass XXXtreme, who is sired by the multi-champion Snowmass Royal Rose.
Revelation's dam's lineage begins with her multi-champion grey sire,
Legend's Challanger of KPR and his sire is the renowned Inca Legend.
This result of selectively crossing these phenomenal bloodlines is no
surprise as Revelation's full sibling is also a color champion.
Revelation
has multiple confirmed pregnancies and is the ideal seed stock to
create a revolution in grey alpaca breeding. If you are looking to add
the highest level of grey evolution into your breeding program, look no
further than Double Dee Revelation!
Judge Comments:
2016 Big E Alpaca Fleece Show judge Arturo Pena commented: "Good degree of fineness for the age class."
2016 North American Alpaca Show Judge Amanda VandenBosch commented: "He's
quite compact in his frame. When you look past down the fiber on his
legs, you look at the substance of bone underneath him. That substance
of bone meets the rest of his frame size. He's a moderate sized alpaca
overall. You can see he's very proud, his overall presentation as well.
He carries through with a very nice length to his staple, but he's
maintaining also the overall handle to his fleece. He's just shy of four
years of age and he's maintaining a good fineness within that fleece
and within the fibers showing overall a consistency which relates also
to the handle and hence his first place position."
2016 North East Alpaca Expo Judge Jude Anderson commented: "The
clear winner. He has a finer fleece. It's more uniform in micron and
caring a greater degree of density across that blanket as well, on a
frame that is well built, strong, well proportioned and balanced."
