Sold - Congratulations to Nancy Chapel of Alpaca Country Estates! Ike's advanced Judge's Choice fleece, which scored 87 points - puts him in a very very small class of elite classic gray herd sires. And, in halter, he was awarded Color Champion at arguably the toughest halter show in the country, the Futurity. Judged to be superior in quality, by senior judges, in both halter and fleece shows. In showing, This is the mark of an elite male. And, in terms of Production - he's already produced National Champions in both Black and Gray. Please see his fleece score card pictured here. Scores such as these are rarely awarded to alpacas of any color. His first Three shearings have each won at least one championship - proving lasting quality. Ike started settling girls when he was just 21 months old, he is a pleasure to manage as a sire. I fell in love with Ike at first sight (and feel), at the 2013 Futurity, when he was 7 months old. Thank you to Gary Henderson of Keva Ranch Alpacas, for producing Ike, and allowing him to join us here at Delphi!

Ike is closed to outside breedings. Crias shown in the 'all of Ike's kids' picture posted here, include All of Ike's kids born to Delphi girls thru Jan 2019 at Delphi, except two that left with their mom's as little babies. His production consistency is unmatched. :^)

This is a great opportunity. Be sure to view our other girls for sale too! Effie, as we call her, has gorgeous, crimpy, fine, dense fleece. It's no surprise at all, that all 3 of her crias have been stunners. Effie's first cria was a truly exceptional brown boy, whose fleece took first in a Very competitive class at the 2017 AOA National Fleece Show. See Rococo's listing below for his many other winnings. In 2017 she threw a fawn girl whose fleece is amazing...fine, fine, fine! Her 2018 cria is a gorgeous rose gray girl - just what we ordered. Recently bred back for another star - Effie is a cornerstone foundation dam.

Congratulations to his new owner, Bari Padgett of Paragon Alpacas! Both his mom and his dad are National Banner Winners - each of them in both Halter and Fleece! How many alpacas can say that? Alpenglow Alpacas and Delphi Alpacas went in search of a silver male - that would complement our herds' fineness, brightness, and uniformity - that would maximize character and fleece weight - that would exhibit the typey style that the judges look for. Our goals were to improve fiber production in every capacity, while at the same time producing top show alpacas. Lofty goals - but we found him in Gray Enough. I had the joy (and challenge) of color checking him for show, when I first met this beautiful boy. GE is pale silver gray - that can best be appreciated against a white background. He has a distinct silver cap and silver legs as well. His first crias include a platinum gray female, just a tad darker than GE himself, from a fawn dam. And now his first crias have arrived at Delphi and we are over the moon with their quality. GE's pedigree cannot be topped. His sire is Annual's Bea-2 Bomber - Bomber is well known as the .38 Special son with his own wall of awards - now sire to an ever growing list of his own Champion crias. Now imagine matching Bomber up with an equally impressive dam! They did. GE's mom is 16 time Champion Orlando's Carly Cloud - full sister to Ringo Cloud. Carly's 16 Championships include: Color Champion AOA Nationals Fleece 2015 Color Champion AOA Nationals Fleece 2014 Color Champion AOBA Nationals Fleece 2012 Color Champion AOBA Nationals Halter 2012 Color Champion MAPACA Halter 2012 Reserve Champion The Futurity 2012 (Halter).
