Contact us on how to acquire and Avatar breeding or if you have an interest in our share.... Thank you to Linda Bat at Delphi Alpacas for allowing us to partner with her in this beautiful male! I am unbelievably honored and excited to be a part of this adventure. I have been a huge fan of Avatar's from the moment I saw and touched his fleece - just ask Linda how many times I begged for an outside breeding!!!! I followed (aka stalked:) him and his wonderful offspring for a very long time and am now thrilled to add him to our herdsire lineup. Avatar has been closed to outside breedings at Delphi Alpacas except to established clients and we will also have the same policy, with one tiny exception. We have to celebrate and to let you in on the celebration, we will offer three outside breedings at a special rate. This "celebration" deal is at Alpaca Annuals and only until July 2014 before he heads back to Delphi. Of course there will be lots of females bred to him and cria available from both farms, but this is your chance to have your own special girl bred with this amazing male. If you want details, please contact me before they are gone. 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, 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 many crias include Futurity and AOBA National Show Champions, several National Fleece Champions, and many many Multi-Champion and Blue Ribbon show winners.

Description

Kanaka is the most renowned of all of Avatar's offspring, due to his amazing show career. And, on top of that, he even has 1% EPD's in BOTH SD and greater than 30% to brag about. With about 50 kids on the ground - when bred to silver or true black, he seems to want to throw grey about 1/2 the time. However, most of his girl friends have been light in color. Not that color matters with his quality - but since his dad is rose grey - some breeders may choose to point him in that direction. Kanaka has the very best of Avatar - and Legacy - two of the best herd sires in the U.S. - concentrated in one amazing male. It's all I can do to not just find a place for this boy in my herd - despite the fact we already have his genetics. His breeding career has unfortunately been a bit limited, due to sometimes finding himself at farms that have been divorcing, downsizing or liquidating. That said - he does have some excellent kids on the ground - including the pretty fawn pictured at right, who racked up the following awards in her amazing career: 4 Championships, 8 blues, 3 seconds, 1 third, 3 fourths and a fifth. Kanaka also sired the grey mother of Autumnsun's Dauntless - one of the best greys currently showing in Colorado. Give him half a chance and he'll knock it out of the park. He's 12 years old, and may have a few, or may have a lot of years ahead of him. If I were you - I'd put him on top of every girl you own for the next few years and then get ready to celebrate. He deserves it! Histogram 8 years - 6/20/2012 = AFD 20.8 / 4.7 / 22.7 / 3.3 >30 Offers welcomed!
