Dark Shaddow has been retired and is no longer breeding. After siring over 130 crias Dark Shaddow decided he had done enough and gracefully entered retirement. His legacy will continue in his many outstanding cria. Dark Shaddow was awarded the prestigious 2006 Reserve Herd Sire of the Year! Shaddow is what is considered truely an "IMPACT" male. He is the only true black herd sire in the US that we know of that has produced the most champion award winning offspring and is the most consistent. Fifteen awards including "Get of Sire", 3 championships, presence, crimp, density, fineness, luster, conformation, thick topknot(the densest we have ever seen) and coverage. Shaddow is as black as coal and his fleece is non-fading even at 13 years of age. He has no gray fibers at all like most true black males of his age that we have seen. Shaddow's offspring have been taking the showring by storm, having won more than 50 championships (17 alone in 2006) and several blue ribbons. Several of his offspring (all color) won yearling bred and owned in large classes which included champion white, light and fawn animals. He has produced true black offspring out of black females, bay black out of light fawn females and gray or true black offspring out of gray dams. When his offspring are born the first thing noticed is the very correct conformation and presence that is seen. Dark Shaddow is also very consistent in production of color. One of his offspring, A.L. Paca's Rose to the Occasion (10X champion gray female), a dark silver gray female seen on this page, is a very impressive girl. She sold at the 2007 AOBA Auction for a very impressive $96K, making her the highest selling gray female in the world! Rose won color championship over the only other alpaca to beat A of O Silver Celebration. (Females and males are combined at the Magical Farms/Ameripaca Futurity for championship classes). Dark Shaddow is without a doubt the best true black male in the USA. No other herdsire compares.

One of our best Foundation Females. We weren't able to show her because she got kicked and had a shoulder injury that we operated on. Everything is good and she has produced wonderful cria for us, including her first born, Skyline's Jedi Master.
