Alpaca Breeding Video

Here are some of the antics that goes on while we breed the alpacas. This alpaca breeding video is just for fun but if you need more information on breeding, The Alpaca Breeding Book is a great guide and is now available on Amazon at The Alpaca Breeding Book

Alpaca Breeding Book

The Alpaca Breeding Book will serve as a guide and it will help you get your females pregnant. Our alpaca book includes the many factors affecting reproduction in females and males such as behavior, health, hormones, stress, wormers, weather and more. We also include information on nutrition, breeding strategies, herd sire selection, proven breeding schedule, and pregnancy testing. For the full table of contents visit us on Amazon and look inside the book at The Alpaca Breeding Book.  

The Alpaca Breeding Book, Alpaca Reproduction & Behavior is published and is now available online. This alpaca book started out as a reference book for breeders having difficulty getting their females pregnant. As you may already know, alpacas breed different than other livestock. I want to help breeders understand alpaca behavior and how it affects their ability to reproduce. The book has grown into much more as we share over 12 years experience breeding hundreds of alpacas.

I hope you all have many successful breeding seasons and a brighter future raising alpacas. If you have any questions or if we can be of any help you are welcome to visit us on our blog or join us on facebook. Our book is now available in paperback and ebook with worldwide distribution. You can find our book on many fine book retailers sites including Amazon and Barnes & Noble to name a few. I appreciate any input and thoughts about my book, thank you!

Busy with babies!

We're busy this fall season with alpaca crias. So far we have 9 on the ground and they are gorgeous. The babies are from our champion sires BF Riccardo, Masterpiece Aslan and Peruvian Alliance. They keep us busy but we love every minute of it.

Several products were made using our alpaca kisses photo. It's really a cute picture of two alpacas kissing. Alpacas kiss by rubbing noses and in this photo I caught a herdsire kissing a new cria (baby) through the fence. The picture is made from a high quality digital photograph. Our products are fully customizable so you can have fun changing the size of the picture or change the style or the text. They make wonderful gifts for any occasion!

Taking pictures of black alpacas can be very challenging at times. Most of the time they look like a black shadow! :)

Thank you Dave...

Thank you Dave...

A big thank you to my husband, Dave, for being an exceptional caretaker. I took this photo after he slept in the barn for about a week with this little cria. With much prayer and God's help, he saved her life!
