Congratulations to our friend Annie Hunt of Willow Wind Farm, for acquiring a share of Avatar. Please contact Annie about Avatar breedings. We are thrilled with Avatar's newest creations - including Delphi's Avella - The 2017 National grey female halter Champion at just over 6 months of age. And congratulations to Avella's new owners, Debbie and Dale Hoerl; Alpacas of Moose Creek Ranch! Many more Avatar crias will be arriving in 2018. Avatar has beautiful crimpy, dense, and fine fleece, but what separates him from other outstanding herd sires, is his phenomenal handle - due to both exceptional uniformity, and very bright, low scale fiber. Cameron Holt, AOBA Senior Judge Trainer and world wide fiber expert, 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. His daughter Delphi's Lailah won Color Champion Grey Female Fleece at the 2012 Nationals. His son Delphi's Rama won a Blue Ribbon at the 2012 National Fleece Show, (and then brown Color Champion at the Tenessee Waltz Fleece Show). These two Avatar kids insured Delphi's win of the 2012 Classic Cup for fleece, at the 2012 Nationals. Another standout offspring is Kanaka - an 8X Champion with 1% EPD's in both SD and >30; and 2% EPD's in fineness. While we don't participate in the program, we agree Avatar's son Kanaka's EPD stats do reflect his sire's strong suits. Avatar's many other crias now include Six AOBA National Halter or Fleece Champions, several Futurity Champions, and many many many Multi-Champion and Blue Ribbon show winners, in addition to the winners of many Special Awards, such as the Best Brightness award at the National Fleece Show - the first time this award has been awarded to a grey. Please enjoy viewing some of his lovely crias and their fleeces, shown below.

SALE Pending. * Mother of the 2017 Gray Female National AOA Halter Champion. * Currently open - includes your choice breeding! * Has nursed two crias at once, both topping weight gain charts. * Only available due to our semi-retirement plans. Jazz is the mom of The most exciting Delphi cria of 2016 - Delphi's Avella. Just stunning. The judges agreed - Avella was crowned the 2017 National Grey Female Halter Champion at just over 6 months of age. Jazz delivered another beautiful DRG Avatar daughter on 9/16/18. "Alta Mira" is the full sister to Avella. Alta Mira is not included with the purchase of Jazz. Jazz was also the adopted mom, of Nehi - a beautiful boy who lost his mom (to cancer) at just a few weeks of age. Jazz nursed both Avella and Nehi, both of which topped the cria group with their weight gains. Some very tough choices are part of our herd reduction plans. We are expecting to semi-retire in a few years, and we want Jazz to give be able to give her new owners many more babies. So we've made the decision that now is the time for her to find a great forever home, hence her very reasonable cash price. ;^) Jazzmine's Histograms: 2010: AFD 17.9, SD 3.4, CV 19.0, 0.5% >30 2012: AFD 21.0, SD 4.3, CV 20.7, 3.8% >30 2013: AFD 22.3 SD 4.7 CV 21.1, 5.8% >30 2014: AFD 21.6 SD 4.3 CV 19.8 3.6% >30
