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! At 8 months of age - YM's laserscan = 13.9 / 2.8 / 20.0 / 0.4% >30 At 20 months of age: 5-16-14: AFD 16.31 / SD 3.44 / CV 21.1 / 100% CF At 32 months of age: 5-24-15: AFD 20.5 / SD 4.2 / CV 20.7 / CF 97.3% At 44 months: 5-23-16: AFD 22.5 / SD 4.6 / CV 20.6 / CF 93.2% / curve 59.8 He's definitely the total package.

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. :^)

~~ Proven young Black Zeppelin daughter ~~ bred to Grey Futurity Champion Ike -(Closed Breedings) ~~ Includes her beautiful bay black son at side - 3 in 1 package - he is looking Very Nice! Henna is confirmed pregnant by ultrasound after just one breeding. Henna Glow is a sweet girl - mild mannered and a great mom too. There's just nothing more we could ask of this pretty girl. We are very happy with her black son, Night Flight - his father is light brown/dark fawn, Amber Autumn Firecracker - straight out of their show string. Henna Glow's son Night Flight was shorn at 2 days of age, on May 23rd - so he'll be ready for the show ring himself next spring. He's very soft, and very correct in conformation and type. Henna Glow is a Zeppelin daughter - so Zeppelin brings his extraordinary fleece quality genetics, in black, to this package - please see his link for details. Zep's dad is an Accoyo Legacy grandson from an Accoyo Moustachio dam. Zeppelin won the black National Fleece Championship with his 4th shearing. At 13 months her AFD was 15.7. (See histogram icon). In 2015 Her results were: AFD 20.7 / SD 4.0 / CV 19.4 Henna Glow's third shearing (2016) weighed in with an almost 5 pound blanket - yielding about 9 pounds total fleece. Soft, with a great staple length, and lovely character. Her 2016 results were AFD 25.6 / SD 4.6 / CV 17.9 / 11.8 >30; we especially appreciate her uniformity. As you can see in her fleece picture, she is also retaining very nice character for a 3rd shearing. Her breeding to Ike is guaranteed - and Ike's breedings are otherwise closed. Join us in anticipating your own Ike cria next year, with a purchase of Henna. We have seen the result of pairing Zeppelin genetics with Ike, and could not be more pleased. What a great opportunity this purchase of Henna could be!
