About this breeder:

Who We Are

Orrapoora Alpacas, established in 1994, is owned and managed by Helen and Nestor Ellinopoullos, and their children Kristi and Jason. Orrapoora Alpacas is a division of Airlie Group Holdings Pty Limited.

The name ?Orrapoora? is a Central Australian Aboriginal word meaning ?Australian Magpie? (Gymnorhina tibicen).

After much searching, we decided that the Goulburn region in NSW provided the perfect climate for our alpacas and we found our ideal farm just outside the city of Goulburn. We brought our animals here in early 1998

Although we have now sold all our breeding stock, we still handle sales of animals for other breeders and are still involved in exports.

Latest News:Incamon Alpaca Stud - News 30th January 2009

?WE HAD TWINS?

Last night at 7.25pm "Rondul Park Black April" gave birth, unaided, to 2 healthy male crias 15 minutes apart. Cria No.1 (so far unnamed) weighed in at 4.6kg and No.2 at 6.1kg. Proud dad, "Bryanna Kimba" looked on capturing the beautiful moment.

Michael was on the spot and was talking to Richard on the phone when No.2 appeared. After the initial shock it was a sleepless night ensuring the little guys and mum were okay. Michael was up until 3am and thought it was safe for some shuteye and then at 6.30am found that No.2 had somehow got his front legs into the drinking bucket and got stuck there so the hair dryer came out and the thermal blanket went on and all was well. The vet was called to provide a health check this morning and gave a clean bill of health to mum and both crias.

Michael still has his hands full getting April to accept both crias and getting No.2 to suckle off mum but he's getting there with a lot of patience and persistence. We have given them a little milk supplement to ensure their ongoing health. The next 24 hours will be critical, especially for No.2, but the vet seemed to think that they will be okay and go on to be normal healthy alpacas.

We are so excited!!!!! To say the least!!!

We have been told that twins are rare with only about 1 in 50,000 births result in twins.

A photo is now available http://www.incamonalpacas.com.au/criagallery.php

Incamon Alpaca Stud - News 31st January 2009

?WE HAD TWINS? Continued...

The twins are now 2 days old and have left the Incamon Hospital (The shed) this afternoon to be with other mums and bubs. Michael reports that No.1 is full of beans and was sprinting around the yard while No.2 is active enough he prefers to take it a little slower. Mum has accepted both crias and is now fully feeding them. Michael offered them a supplementary bottle this morning but was rejected outright.

Michael is now monitoring their behaviors to ensure the Cria?s get enough milk and that they stay as a family unit.

These twins are believed to be the eleventh set of huacaya twins to be born and registered in Australia.

Sorry no names decided as yet.

Incamon Alpaca Stud - News 2nd Feb 2009

?WE HAD TWINS? Continued...

Sad news i'm afraid. On the Saturday night No.2 was unwell and the vet was called on Sunday morning however later we received the sad news that he had passed. He had a very weak heart & lungs, and appeared to have contracted pneumonia.

After all the hipe of having twins we are very saddened by his illness & passing.

We ended up calling No.1 Eik (pronounced Ike) and No.2 Elk. Eik & Elk

April and Eik are both fine with no complications whatsoever.


Best regards

About this breeder:Dianne has been breeding alpacas since 1993. In 1996 she travelled to Peru to see where Alpacas came from and to learn as much as she could about alpacas. 2004 saw her travel to Peru again but this time study at the International Alpaca Judging School under Maggie Kreiger and Julio Sumar. She successfully completed this course which has added to her extensive knowledge of Alpacas, suris in particular.

Until 2009 Dianne had a herd of over 100 suris but due to personal circumstances had to downsize and her animals are now at Baarrooka.

The results of her breeding program speak for themselves. 2003 National Champion Suri (Tahara Illumini) 2003, Intermediate Female Champion Suri(Tahara Perlitta) 2003, Junior Champion Female 2005 and 2006 Adult Female Champion (Tahara Zahira).

Zahira's son Zabar ET was VCR Alpaca of the year in 2009.

Tahara's philosophy is to use the best genetics possible.

Alkumi was VCR Suri Alpaca of the year in both 2010 and 2011.
Latest News:I am currently have some lovely stock for sale as the time has come to retire. I can no longer manage to keep animals. I have some lnice young females as well as a couple with cria at foot. As it is mid winter the girls have not been mated. They need to be sold asap.

Tahara has been quiet on the showing front for a while but returned a couple of time in 2019. Tahara Omari (Roan) and Tahara Adair (medium fawn) were awarded champion fleece in their respective classes at Bendigo Colourbration 2019.. Omari Was also awarded Champion Roan at the Fleece show at the Bendigo Sheep and Wool Show 2019.

Melbourne Royal was also a successful show under the Peruvian Judge Rito Hauyto. Tahara Phineas was Champion Adult Male and Tahara Zeke ws thrid in a strong Senior class. The following weekend at Seymour Phineas was again a Champion and Zeke won his class..

2012/13 Saw Tahara Phaedra and Tahara Nitere have an extremely successful show season.

2012 Ballarat Ag Show Phaedra Intermediate White Champion with Nitere being Intermediate Medium Fawn Champion and going on to be Supreme Champion.

2012 - At the recent VCR Awards Night Tahara Alkumi was awarded VCR Suri Alpacaq for 2011. Congratulations Alkumi for being awarded VCR Suri Alpaca of the Year two years in a row.

Tahara had had much success in the last few months. Tahara Alkumi was awarded Supreme Champion Suri at the Wangaratta Ag Show and Tahara Zabar won Supreme Champion Suri Fleece.

At Bendigo Ag Show Tahara Iridescence was awarded Supreme Champion Suri and Alkumi was Champion Jujnior male. Tahara Olin was 2nd in his colour class.

So al in all a very succerssful show.

Tahara had a huge reduction sale on 2 may 2010 due to fact Dianne no longer has acres on which to operate. She is currently leasing 9 acres and is continueing with her remaining alpacas as long as the lease is available.

Thankfully due to the support of Julie and Russell of Baarrooka Alpaca Stud the sale went well and all alpacas now have new homes with both new and existing breeders.

Zabar has been awarded Suri Alpaca of the Year 2009 for the Central Region. The other good new is that he is now working.l

Tahara enjoyed success at the Kyneton Fleece Show 2009 with Tahara Zip Code being awarded first in hus Black class, Tahara Amorina 1st in her Fawn class and Tahara Incandescence 2nd in her white class.


Some of my girls are now having crias so there will be some excellent 3 in 1 packages available in the near furture. Enquire about our attractive packages of females plus male suri of highly desirable blood lines, suitable for certification and use to breed with and improve your girls progeny.


Some good new is that in the middle of moving Tahara Attended the Ballarat Sheep and Wool Sale and was fortunate enough to Win Supreme Champion Suri with Tahara Zabar ET.

Three fleeces were also entered in the Cresweick Woollen Mills fleece show and all were successful. Tahara Amonina was Champion Fawn, Tahara Iin candescence was Champion White and Tahara Zip Code (a black) was Supreme Champion fleece.
