Delphi Alpacas invites you to imagine the possibilities .
. . .
Avatar has wonderful crimpy, dense, and fine fleece, but what truly
separates him from the other outstanding herdsires is his phenomenal
handle - due only in part to the exceptional uniformity of his fleece.
Cameron Holt, AOBA Senior Judge Trainer and world wide fiber expert,
(http://www.cameronholt.com) gave the following scores to Avatar's
fleece: Fineness: 15 out of 15 ; Handle: 5 out of 5 ; Uniformity
of micron: 7 out of 8 ; Crimp: 8.5 out of 10 ; Density: 3 out of
5 ; Brightness: 8 out of 10 ; Lack of medullation: 8 out of 10.
(Scores are given without regard to color).

Avatar's crias include Futurity and AOBA National Show Champions,
several National Fleece Champions, and numerous Multi-Champion and
Blue Ribbon show winners. More Champions continue to arrive; West
Texas Gold's "How Sweet He Is" won Color Champion at his
very first show, Txolan 2008, beating the 52 other brown males shown.
Delphi's Ava and Appeline also both brought home Championships from
the 2008 SWRAS.
Avatar is not available for outside breedings, his breedings are
restricted to customers only. Purchase of a breeding quality female
from Delphi does include limited breeding privileges to Avatar,
at his published fee. The last publicly available breeding to Avatar
was donated to the prestigious 2006 International Alpaca Odyssey
herd sire auction, and sold for $4800. His fee is now listed at
$5000.
At Delphi, our firm belief is that our continued success with alpacas
is dependent upon producing alpacas of a quality that can only be
imagined today. We have refined our breeding choices in the quest
for the exceptional. Alpacas that produce the best, bred to the
best, the key to our success, and to yours.
Imagine the possibilities!
