Sheer Galaxy wins Junior Herd Sire of the Year!
The 2010 MaPaca (Mid-Atlantic
Alpaca Association) Jubilee is one of our country's
largest shows with over 1,000 alpacas entered this year. This Level V show held their first "Herd Sire
of the Year" competition. There were 36 champion sires entered into
two
categories:
• Senior (males greater than 5
years of age) and,
• Junior (males 5 years of age
and younger).
The winner of
the competition was to be determined by:
1) Placement of the sire's
offspring at the show,
2) Amount of money bid on a breeding to the sire, and
3) Voting for favorite stud by breeders in attendance.
While at the MaPaca
show, we thought Sheer Galaxy stood a good chance of making a run for the award as:
• His
crias did very well in the show ring with one taking second place and all of the
rest winning their classes. Also, Galaxy won the Get of Sire
competition to boot (although this did not count towards the Herd Sire of
the Year trophy), and
• He received the highest bid
for a breeding to him of all of the sires in his category.
Turns
out he was the top stud and was awarded MaPaca Junior HERD SIRE OF THE
YEAR. Way to go Galaxy!
