***Recent Quotes from Satisfied Customers who have bought animals or Knitwear from WhyNot Alpacas:
“Boys are great – ever charming, & we can’t believe how little trouble they are. Seems every time I look out of the window they’re having their photos taken by people in shorts.” (e-mail, 21/3/09)
“You would not believe how well they have settled-it is as if they were meant to live in our copse. We are completely, utterly and absolutely in love. Bliss!” (e-mail, 16 /6/09)
"Just to say the pullover is super. Wear it all the time."
***WhyNot Alpacas is an expanding, family-run herd, established in 2000. All our animals for sale are hardy and well-handled; and all youngstock are halter-trained.
*** The ever-improving quality of our herd has been demonstrated at Shows over the years.
*** We are happy to offer comprehensive after-sales back-up where needed; and some hands-on experience for first-time owners, at Ghyllas, if required.
Deals available on packages of three or more animals.
PLEASE NOTE:
1. Because we firmly believe that, especially in the North of England, it is not beneficial to cover a young female before she has had proper time to mature, it will be found that our home-bred girls have all been given plenty of time to grow up, rather than being covered in adolesence. We hope that they are going to be breeding for many years; and our policy is based upon not spoiling the sheep for a ha'porth of tar (or the extra six months). We hold that waiting to start them on a Spring-birthing cycle can do nothing but good, to both them and their owners.
2. This year, as in previous years, ever since its inauguration, we had a very successful two days at Cockermouth's Woolfest, with both a selection of our home-bred alpacas and our home-grown alpaca products. As always, the Public's interest in the alpacas was phenominal: had we been able to charge x.p/photo, we could have taken early retirement! We expect to go there again, all being well, in 2011
Also, once again, we took a selection of alpacas, together with our own alpaca products, to the HOLKER HALL GARDEN FESTIVAL, near Cartmel, in early June. And once again, as always, our stand engendered enormous interest from the Festival's many visitors***.
3. As we have done so successfully for several years past, we expect to take our animals and alpaca products to the Westmorland County Show on 9 September, and to several other local shows in and around Cumbria.
