WP Elite Delilah

Huacaya, Bred (Female), Proven, Light Fawn, 7/8 Peruvian, 1/8 Chilean

ARI# 32691771 | DOB: 11/1/2013

5th shearing: Grade 1 Ultra Fine Royal Baby fleece with a comfort factor close to 100%! And this beautiful female's given us six (almost seven) stellar offspring -- all show quality -- with a few banners in there. WP Elite Delilah will stay in our foundation herd...but there's always a price, right? She's one of the best out there, and she's maintaining incredible fleece stats with a Spin Fineness of 17.7 microns at 5 years old as a breeding female! As an 8-year old, I doubt it's changed much -...

This guy is programmed for pre-potency! Color coat testing = Ee AA, and…of the few progeny on the ground, he is fulfilling exactly what we thought he would and we can’t wait to get more of his progeny on the ground! Rigel won his 6th Championship at the 2023 AOA National IFA Fleece Show (measured AFD 20.1 micron) as Dark Color Champion at 4-years old! We know that his sire, CCNF Leviathan, has stamped out tons of champions. His dam, Stillmeadow Farm Bella’s Dream, has produced 4 champions thus ...

Description

Phenomenal girl...All we can say is Wow! She is better than we could have dreamed! And this cria on board is a repeat breeding, as its full sister is an absolute stunner. UPDATE: Venus spring 2026 cria arrived on 6/18, and this is the first time I’ve been genuinely excited about a male cria in quite some time. He’s so nice, that we’ve decided to breed Venus back to Rigel yet another time, even though I had planned to breed her to a different boy. This time, I need a girl, though!

MMFA Venus Rising started her show career at the 2018 Showtacular/ NEAOBA/ Empire, and she walked away with two Reserve Color Championships--one of them in front of a Snowmass female and the other right behind a CCNF female! At the 2019 Heart of Virginia, she walked away with a full Color Championship in front of a beautiful Stillmeadow Farm female. Kevin O'Leary said she is the "total package."

Venus is out of one of our top stud females, WP Elite Delilah, who is out of The Elite Maximus. Delilah is maintaining an 18 micron AFD at 5 years old! and while we haven't gotten a recent histogram, her fleece is amazing for her age and the number of crias she's had -- definitely one of the best fleeces on the farm.

Venus' sire is none other than Snowmass Legend Rising, a multi-champion white male who garnered 4X Judges Choice awards. The sad news is that he unexpectedly passed in the Fall of 2018--much, much too soon. We had hoped to repeat her breeding.

Every single one of Venus' offspring have been extremely nice foundation quality alpacas. We've sold several of them, only to have seller's remorse. We purchased one of them back when we had the opportunity.

Her Spring 2025 cria out of Man in the Moon’s Rigel arrived on 6/4/25, and she’s an absolute stunner! We decided to breed her back to Rigel for a 2026 offspring, and have made the tough decision to list Venus on our sales list, as we’ve retained two of her daughters.

Note: MMFA offers its best pricing on packages of three or more alpacas. Let us know what you're looking for and we can help you find the right package within your budget.
