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.
Congratulations to Avatar's new owners, Eric and Brenda Schenck
of Red Ghost Alpacas. They join with Delphi Alpacas in supporting
the International Alpaca Odyssey. Avatar will be moving to Pennsylvania
September 1st. His breedings will be reopened then, limited to 5
breedings at the fee of $3500. Avatar's breedings have been closed
for 6 years, this is a rare opportunity. The last publicly available
breeding to Avatar was donated to the prestigious 2006 International
Alpaca Odyssey herd sire auction, and sold for $4800. The winner
of this years IAO breeding may choose to have their service provided
in Colorado before 9-1-11, or in Pennsylvania after 9-1-11.
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.
