Description
We wanted to show you what our breeding priorities are here at Delphi, some of the fleeces from alpacas we have selected to utilize in our program, and some of our favorite offspring, so we created this listing.
Over the past 25 years we have learned about many characteristics that make Alpaca fleece stand apart from other fleece animals such as merino.
In a word - there is one characteristic that stands out for us, and that is Handle.
The 3 primary components of great handle are Fineness, Brightness/Luster (scale structure), and Uniformity.
These components must all be superior, in order to create a superb handling fleece - and product.
We could go on and on about the many factors that make an elite fleece, and an exceptional alpaca.
But for now - that's a good place to start. Handle has been a priority here at Delphi for many years.

We'd love to talk with you about all things alpaca, zip us an email!
Enjoy browsing our listings.
