FAWN CCNF Archangel Daughter!

Afteil

HuacayaBred (Female)Dark Fawn

AOA# 30425392DOB: 6/8/200618 yrs

Aptly named after the "Angel of Twilight" CCNF Archangel's Aftiel is one of the most stunning animals in the herd.. We would like to say that we think it doesn't get any better than this in color but we have not seen every colored alpaca in the US. But we reckon the phenotype, the pedigree, the fiber, it all stacks up here as being elite. Speaking of lineage, Archangel's Aftiel, in October 2008, was one of the darkest offspring (only five medium fawn alpaca of 72) by her multi award-winning sire, CCNF Archangel (offspring of, Accoyo Legends, Snowmass Legacy Gold, PPERuvian Mr. President, and Augusto.) Only 25% of his registered alpacas have color. Aftiel has fabulous solid color! Her fleece is fine and dense exhibiting high luster. She has a very strong frame and is thick-boned. An outstanding phenotype! Her dam, Nova's Twilight, is a fabulous black with terrific presence and valuable heritage: Snowmass Nova and Snowmass Peruvian Casanova. Disregarding all of these wonderful traits, and genetics, there is something worth mentioning about her personality... she carries with her, most of the day, a piece of hay, or a stick in her mouth just for fun and often times she comes close enough and offers kisses to her human friends... we have not yet met an alpaca with such endearing traits! She's an amazing mother who's attentive and produces a great deal of milk. Don't miss out on your chance to own one of the first Archangel cria for sale! Aftiel is ready to breed! We suggest our Double Dee Revelation for what we would expect, an astounding cria. For more information or photos please email us at [email protected].
