Elderwood's Red Shift 7

A.L. Paca’s Andromeda Galaxy, better known as Andy, is a proven medium brown Huacaya alpaca herdsire whose record includes 10 championship banners and an impressive record as a producer of champions. As the only dark offspring of Sheer Galaxy, Andy brings a rare combination of genetics, presence, and proven production. He is square and balanced with impressive bone, paired with fleece that carries a shine more commonly seen in elite Suris. His brightness and luster consistently drew attention both in the show ring and on the farm. At the New Jersey show, Wade Geese described Andy as an “exceptional package,” noting his consistency, density, style, and brightness, along with the overall quality breeders hope to see in a male. Andy has gone on to prove that assessment through his offspring, reliably passing many of his strengths to the next generation. His progeny have earned championships, Judge’s Choice awards, blue ribbons, and other recognition across the country, establishing him as both a decorated show male and a proven champion-producing herdsire. As of June 8, 2026: * 48.8% of his shown offspring have placed 1st or better * 76.7% of his shown offspring have placed 3rd or better Notable Offspring: A.L.
