Awakening is co-owned with Brenda Weber of BlueRidge Alpaca Ranch. We are thrilled to have Michelangelo's Awakening back in River Falls. He has such a gentle and charismatic personality. He is a show champion and an established sire of champion off-spring. Usually he produces the color of the dam, especially for grey (his dam was grey). His crias are outstanding - fine and dense. Silver Sistine, Sooper Trooper and Tokyo Smoke have brought home blue, purple, and orange ribbons. Come see them and make your decision for your next breedings. You won't be disappointed.

It shows excellent architecture throughout and the character extends the length of the staple, it is also evident all the way through and all those characteristics give him great density."

Judge Peter Kennedy commentts, “Showing a great level of maturity for his age with a beautiful level of coverage. Very true to type. The fleece is extremely fine showing excellent amplitude with his high frequency crimp style through his entire blanket and everywhere I looked it was all the same.
