Description

The info below is for reference as, heartbreakingly, we lost Darby to an ulcer that perforated. She had been treated and the night berfore her passing had gained 2 lbs per day and her color was normal. She must have felt so good that she took to much in too fast. Her 2025 daughter Presley is taking the bottle super well. Presley is a Darby clone so with that had her sire being a multi-champion TB Presley is an excellent investment for that black making herd. She has a maternal sister that is black.
Darby showed as a dark fawn her first year and light brown her second year. She has some of the best midwest genetics out there through Avalon Farms (Michigan) and Hobby Horse Farms and our own competitive program that includes Darby's sire JJA Adonis' Dozer. Adonis was a multi-champion who would put soft, long, dense fiber on his offspring with usually the dams color or darker and his great mellow personality. Oh, his HUGE bone as well. Dozer took on more of his dam's elegant structure which she got from her sire the legendary Legacy. She was a 7-time champion. Darby took all high ribbons except in one show a 4th, the same year she was a 1st placer at Nationals in Halter.
She produces the studs color or if bred to a stud that does the darkest genetic she puts out medium brown like her maternal grandsire Winchester of Hobby Horse farms.
2019 : Darby DID have a true black female from her breeding with Kodiak on August 14th. We have named her Kodiak's Nikoal since she is Coal black. Darby is a fantastic mom. Nikoal sold even though we didn't want to part with her as we love her black fleece.
2021:Darby had a medium brown male with spectacular confirmation, super dense fiber and extremely nice bundled fiber with great crip. He's sire is Accoyo Impeccable who does the dam's darkest genetics. Ignite took a 2nd behind the RC and then a 4th with only negative comment of him needing to grow more as the youngest in the class. Killed us not to show him in 2023 as Ignite has beautiful to look at fiber but it is very tender from being ill this fall. Totally healthy now but the fiber break and tenderness wouldn't be competitive. Check his fleece photo out .Ignite sold as a breeder in 2025.
We bred a fantastic white male from Sugarland Alpacas to Darby in hopes of a gorgeous white. Phoenix's Phenom is the result. He will be my white stud soon.
Darby's breeding to Impeccable's Preacher in 2023 who is our multi-champion black out of a gorgeous msg who's dam was true black hence his color. She absorbed that one. We rebred to Preacher in 2024. I'm keeping her white male from 2022!
June 10th 2025, Darby had a textbook birth of a dark brown female. Darker points so will be checking to see if she colors up as usually. I'm expecting a bay black. This little one has been named JJA Preacher's Presley and she is doing great. Gaining very well. Stick straight conformation. Doing zoomies so she is enjoying life and hoping for playmates soo
