[AlpacaTalk] Breed differences
I am seeing lots and lots of interest in Peruvian animals. The peruvian
fiber characteristics seem to be the standard that all are measured
against. There is a real difference in the characteristics in chilean
vs peruvian fiber. As a spinner I really don't like the tight super
crimp and bundle of the peruvians. A long stapled with crinkle, silky
with very little bundle is perfect in my spinners eyes - exactly what
you find in full chileans.
In other types of animals each breed has its own standards to be judged
agains - poodles don't compete against Germn Shepards - so why do we
compare Peruvians to Chileans and Bolivians?
