It may or may not have availability, but he can certainly request it.
So DL may be trying to push DL as a preference (so they don't have to pay CO for the ticket), or the CO flight is not available and the agent is giving him a DL alternative, or the agent is ignorant and doesn't know CO is a partner.

Using Delta Miles to Fly CO
So if I want to use Delta miles to fly CO, the way to do it is to call Delta SkyMiles and make the reservation with them, specifically requesting a CO flight?
