HARTLEY
NSW | | About this breeder: | Belgrave Park Alpacas was established in 1992 with a small huacaya herd and in 1996 included suris in our pursuit of the ultimate elite fibre and specialising in colours. Also in 1996 we commenced our value adding by processing our own fibre and producing garments of quality. This eventually led to our clothing label "Creature Comforts" becoming our showpiece. We have now fine tuned our manufacturing of garments and are still hanging on to 100% Australian grown, designed and manufactured. Hoping not to succumb to the China path just yet.
Meanwhile, whilst our show career is limited to the immediate vicinity of Hartley and Sydney , we have had the pleasure of 5 Supreme Championships and many broad ribbons. This year will see our 7th Annual Open Sale Day/Auction with a date to be finalised shortly. |

Little Hartley | | About this breeder: | Bonny Belle is a small stud of 11 acres nestled in the Hartley Valley. We began breeding alpacas in the year 2000 and have never regretted our decision to become close to these incredible animals. We started with a pregnant female who delivered a lovely female cria for us. From there we have had a majority of female cria making our herd grow quickly. In 2002 we purchased a very fine male, Golden Gates Julius who is the Superfine son of ILR Peruvian Don Julio. He has improved our fleece quality and micron and overall bone structure of our alpacas. Then in 2005 we purchased Hawthorn Cottage Iam also a well built male who has superior fleece and carries genetics such as Purrumbete Highlander, Purrumbete Inti and Cedar House Peruvian Ayaviri. He now has several quality alpacas on the ground from Julius Daughters.We also have kept a dark stud sire, a Julius son, Bonny Belle Sirius Black to use over our grey and dark coloured female. Because we are a small stud we can offer individual attention to our animals and support to purchasers. All our animals are handled regularly and are used to the human touch. We encourage farm visits and offer full after sales support to our clients. Look no further than Bonny Belle for your next alpaca! We have also opened an on farm shop and offer alpaca knitwear, yarn and fleece and woven items for sale. Several times a year we have open days and we invite the public to experience alpacas.

What a wonderful ride it has been... great times, many wonderful friends and success with breeding and showing....
Three or four Supreme awards, NSW point score female and alpaca of the year. Many many Champion and Resevre Champion awards from all shows from local to Royal and National. Herd size never greater than 35 alpacas.
Highlight???
1995 National Show - entered a black and a Med brown fleece. The black was Reserve Champion in its section. The brown was Champion of its section and Supreme Champion.
To date the only brown or coloured fleece (other than white or lt fawn) to win the National Fleece Show.
I've had a wonderful time and am pleased and very proud that my alpacas still compete favourably with the best in Australia.
I now have 6 female alpacas, 1 stud males, 2 entire males and 2 wethers for sale.
REASON FOR DISPERSAL SALE 1. I intend to take a new direction in life. "The time has come," the Walrus said.
I have some excellent and well regarded bloodlines throughout my herd.
Every alpaca in the herd has a multiple Supreme winner in its pedigree on the sire's side and/or a multiple Supreme producing female alpaca on its dam's side.
I would love to find a purchaser who appreciates the bloodlines and the many years of work getting a herd to this quality who would purchase all I have for sale or a sizeable group and continue with top quality matings.
I would like to follow the herd's development.

Hello Everyone,
Well I had a go at a bulletin board, and just couldn't find the time to keep it going so have gone back to the simpler format of news.
We are tweeking the website a bit at the moment, with my whiz webmaster, Kristi of Broadribbons designs giving the shop a complete makeover. It's very exciting with alot more features to improve your browsing experience and my administration of it. We will have more fairer freight which wont be the compromise of the table rate, but will reflect the true cost of getting the fibre and goodies to your door. This will be particularly good for smaller parcels.
Once the new shop is ready to go we will get it online live and I will start re stacking the shelves with more random dyed tops, some lovely and unusual buttons, Landscape dyes (a selected range at this stage), and more colours of the Felbi Batts, as well as some lovely locally made Olive oil soap for felters, and the new and very good magazine "Down Under Textiles".
On the Farm front we have sold quite a few females and decided to get everyone pregnant again on the back of a good season. So most of the alpaca girls are pregnant and all the ewes. The ewes are due to drop in August and the Alpacas will start in Spring and Autumn next year. It will be great to have some babies again. It has finally got cooler here and we are starting to get some decent rain after only a short dry spell duruing April and May.
I have been busy weaving and we have been busy on the road going down to Eden, to Orange for the Forum, Bathurst for the Wool Muster and in July we are going to the Old Bus Depot Markets more on that later. We can now take credit cards over the phone, if required, and we may move away from the Paymate structure soon to simplify things,
I will be starting some local workshops in Spinning and Felting over the coming months so let me know if you are local and would be interested.
Watch this space!
cheers

Oh Dear it's August! I dont know how bloggers do it!! I went out this morning and took photos of our new babies. We have 4 lambs on the ground now, a set of twins and 2 singles. I cant get close enough to 3 of them but took a photo of our early one, who has survived wind, rain and snow; she's tough! We also have 3 crias on the ground with 2 to come in this batch. All are boys, which is a bit of a relief as they are easier to sell than the girls. One of them is a roan/fawn,the other a brown and a crisp white: all from a grey sire! I have been madly weaving trying to finish assignments and have finally finished the large tapestry I had to hand in and will post a photo in the gallery. I decided to finish it in time for the Workshop I was attending in Warrnambool just 2 weeks ago. It was a huge effort to get the last of the weaving done, but very satisfying to finish and cut off. The workshop with Tim Gresham was fantastic. He's a great tutor, very patient, and his skill and passion for tapestry is infectious. Peter went with me and we drove down south just lapping up the endless green paddocks and water everywhere.
On the way back we visited Mandie Chandler of "Ewe give me the Knits", and had a fabulous time exchanging ideas, checking out show and tell and planning. Mandie is expanding her range and her unique carding and blending has to be seen: check out her website!
Back home and we have also visited Pat Gledhill of Spun Out to deliver some Unicorn product and see her shop. Once again another lady that cards and blends her own dyed fibre, with results that are soft and cloudy. Pat also has a website. I haven't had time to weave yet this week, and I am itching to get at it to consolidate what I have learnt and develop some designs using the techniques I have been exposed to.
Peter has a long leave at the moment, its lovely to have him home longer than 4 weeks, and he is tackling a rotton verandah, some shelter sheds, the garden and fencing (a laneway yippee!!). Before I can weave I have to get the website up to date. Hope all is well with you all. The new shop is up and running and seems to be going well. I am still sorting out the credit card side of things to ditch paymate (and the fees) and move to super secure e-path gateway. We take security seriously and this method will never store credit card details online and uses encryting that is rock solid. I promise to write again sooner. I haven't had the opportunity to set up a workshop yet. My usual venue in Bathurst has been too busy. We do plan to go to the Alpaca Expo run by the Hawkesbury/Blue Mountains Region of the AAA. It will run over the weekend of 25th to 26th of September 2010.
We will be there both days, with everything wool and alpaca, and of course Unicorn Fibre Wash products; which I will be demonstrating. I will be emailing everyone and talking about this more as time approaches. Should be a great weekend. At the end of October, there will be a craft weekend at the Bathurst Showgrounds which I will be attending with the stock and either be demonstrating felting or weaving. It will be a busy time! I will write again soon,
cheers

Finally a sunny day! I cant believe I am saying this, but we have had so much rain! All our dams are brimming except the house dam which has a very limited catchment but is slowly filling. There is water everywhere and the creeks and rivers have been swollen for weeks. We have nearly finished lambing now with 3 ewes to go. Actually got some grey lambs which is good and my best ewe has had twin boys again, she doesn't seem to be able to throw girls. We will keep one as a ram as we dont have a brown ram at the moment. Anyone interested in a coloured corriedale ram let me know ASAP as I plan to take orders and sell them as weanlings.
We had one strange occurence here. A maiden ewe lambed early morning and her very large lamb unfortunatly died. We picked it up in the morning and she was distraught. Another ewe (possibly her sister), decided to lamb in exactly the same spot a few hours later and the first one thought "its a miricle! my lamb is back to life!" and proceeded to bond with it! When we came out to check we found the lamb standing amongst 8 legs trying to figure out where the milk bar was! So we managed to separate the first ewe and left her in another paddock for 36 hours. When we put her back with the mob she was undeterred and still had that special bond with the lamb. However her milk has gone and the lamb has figured out where the udders are. Strangly mum doesn't seem to mind having Aunty around, neither does the lamb, and Aunty is happy to keep an eye out for lamb who is growing like a weed.
We had to sup feed a lamb, but after 24 hours of keeping her slightly hungry so that she would seek her mum things clicked and they are both doing famously (phew). So thankfully no poddy lambs.
We now have 4 crias on the ground all boys, and we lost one which was sad, but mum has fully recovered and we will remate her in October. So everyone is enjoying a respite in the weather before it starts to rain again later on this week.
Now the 2010 Alpaca Expo is on Saturday 25th and Sunday 26th of September 2010 at the Hawkesbury Racecourse, Clarendon (opposite the Richmond RAAF Base). There will be alpaca displays, seminars and of course US!! Come along and say hello, it's open 10 to 4pm each day. |

Taree South,
Mid North Coast | | About this breeder: | Our journey started with the purchase of our farm in April 2004 for somewhere to retire and enjoy the comforts of space and experience the joy of animals, a lifestyle to good to pass. Richard is still working fulltime in our business in the Wollongong district so we share our time between our Helensburgh home and the farm at Taree. Our son Michael lives on the farm, and does a great job of looking after the animals and doing the many chores. We just love having the alpacas around and look forward to many years enjoyment with them.
Our farm, Incamon Alpaca Stud is located on the south side of Taree (4km) on 30 acres. We have 2 dams, 12 paddocks, and currently run 55 alpacas, 8 cattle and Savannah our horse. Our dams attract many different species of birds including many ducks and the odd Pelican. The average rain fall for the area is 1,200mm (48 inches) per annum.
Richard is no stranger to farms as he grew up on large properties but Robin and Michael were new comers’ to the experience, and just love every moment. Initially we were going to have a few cows and calves and a horse, however, after meeting some of these lovely alpaca creatures we purchased our first two in 2004 and we grew from there. We now beleive that 50 breeding females would be our optimum number. We have now acquired sufficient stock to achieve our goal.
Standing at Stud we have:-
* Illawarra Wenoim (Solid White);
* Jaspers Brush Claudio (Solid White);
* Incamon Starr (Solid White);
* Bryanna Kimba (Solid White).
We also have several promising young males coming through. Our breeding plan is to build our herd by breeding in animals with good confirmation, bone structure & fleece characteristics. Our alpaca numbers will grow organically and to ensure that we have enough quality grass to manage without heavy hand feeding we will reduce our cattle numbers.
We have learnt so much since purchasing our first alpacas and we now look forward to continuing to breed quality alpacas show some of our young animals. We have found the alpaca farming community to be very supportive to newcomers and that is something we have fostered and will continue the journey to build this great industry and pass our knowledge and experiences onto others.
We are members of the Australian Alpaca Association:

“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

“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.

2092 Windellama Rd
Quialigo via Goulburn NSW | | About this breeder: | After a lifetime of cattle breeding amongst other things, we decided to look for stock that could compliment our property, “Paddington Park” in Kangaroo Valley. We ran a hideaway called “The Heavens” and some cattle. After following the alpaca scene around for approximately two years, the female member of this partnership decided it was to be Alpacas that graced the lush green pastures of their mountain retreat.
Beginning in 1993 with 2 pregnant females which cost an arm and a leg at that time, and fortunately being blessed with two female cria we were off… Steadily our herd grew, as did our Show successes. Then came our agistors, of whom we became very involved in their education and breeding programmes.
Having a medical background as well as a rural one proved to be a bonus, and Open days, Education days and time spent with other breeders proved a wonderful and social interacting time. Becoming the Breed Captain for Sydney RAS Show for 9 years was a great experience, having shown cattle with the family since I was a child proved to be be of great benefits to us in the Alpaca industry, knowing what and how to get our industry going through the RAS. I still feel that this is our greatest advertising outlet to the general public in NSW. There were a lot of skills which were to be brought to the alpaca area at the RAS.
Being a director on the first formed Alpaca Fleece Co-operative was another new experience and where I was fortunate enough to learn so much about what the mills require. We still have a long way to go in this field, and I feel a lot more knowledge is required here perhaps from woollen mill experts. Watching the fleece progress over the years from our first imported Chilean stock to the improvement from imported Peruvian genetics has been a privilege and a wonderful one to be part of. Then with the event of the Suri coming to Australia and watching breeders learn about this silken fleece has indeed been another great opportunity. I never get over enjoying city folk who have come over to the rural scene learning and enjoying this wonderful alpaca.
In early 2000 circumstances brought us to Goulburn where we felt the more natural pasture may be more in keeping with the alpaca natural grazing habits. This proved to be so, and our alpacas thrived. As well there is a great network of breeders nearby who get in and assist one another and always there for advice or to be able to help one another. We continue to assist others with medical knowledge learned from our wonderful vet and his associates. We have been blessed with Bill Beresford from Moss Vale from the beginning and he continues to teach us all along the way and is always there to advise us with anything; we are eternally grateful to him for all his down to earth knowledge and skills he has handed on to us.
We run approximately 140 alpacas, our own and agisted, on 100 acres here. We also have access to a nearby property on which most of our wethers are run, when we have some….
In early 2008 Paul passed away through a dreaded brain tumour, it took a lot of pleasure away from showing and getting out there selling our alpacas. Now I find I am going to have to downsize, age is catching up, and my mate isn't here to enjoy the many pleasures and sometime heartaches we shared.
Showing is more difficult for me trying to run the farm etc. and getting the fun out of showing is still there but harder for me to do without Paul. So we are offering good packages and discounts, so make an offer and it will be considered seriously. All our alpacas are halter trained, and have a good temperament.
Many of our males are for sale at a sensible and affordable price, as we have used them extensively in our herd. They are great buys for anyone with a small herd or needing different blood.
I hope to see you visiting our herd and enjoying walking amongst them.
| | Latest News: | Prices have been lowered, and some are negotiable. Discounts for packages available. We have some stunning young cria expected in the spring and are always willing to share any knowledge. Happy to keep alpacas here until they have had their cria, free of charge. |

ROSLYN
via GOULBURN
NSW | | About this breeder: | Lavender Park Alpacas was established almost 11 years ago, on our small acerage at Morisset, (near Newcastle), New South Wales.
We searched for a livestock investment that would be kind to the environment, and friendly to a family lifestyle. We decided on alpacas, after our small son spoke to some at a field day, and received a favourable answer.
Then came the research. Firstly, we visited lots of open days on farms, met lots of interesting and informative people, and fell totally in love with these wonderful animals.
We moved from the idea of buying a couple of wethers to get “a feel” of the management and care, straight into selecting a pregnant female and a maiden ready for joining. Unable to decide on a colour theme, we selected a black pregnant female, and fawn maiden, and have maintained this direction (with minimal deviations) ever since.
We moved to our current location in search of more appropriate education, and a better lifestyle in cooler weather! Our 'pacas came with us. We are now on a 40 acre property, with the alpaca set up covering about 15 of these. We love it here, and so do they.
We continue to strive to improve, and are exceedingly happy with most of our progress.

Crookwell NSW, 2583 | | About this breeder: | We have been breeding alpcas since 1995 and now have a range of white and coloured huacays and suris, also wethers and maiden females ready to be mated. We have used stud sires from good bloodlines over our females and have improved the quality and fineness of the fleeces. As we must downsize our herd we are selling our maidens (huacaya and suri) and some females, which have had one or two crias. These will be sold at competitive prices and discounts will be given to package deals. Further information and advice will be given on asking.

quialigo | | About this breeder: | Keith and Pam have been breeding alpacas for 7 years now. Its been a long hard road getting where we are today. We fertalize yearly with TURKEY MANURE and have found a great improvement in our natural grasses very rarely having to feed our animals on alterative feed. My daily chours consist of spending a lot of time with our animals which leads to much queiter animals. I train my cria from 4 months as it's much easier on myself and the cria. In 2008 all my hard work paid off at the GOULBURN A.P.&H.SOCIETY. I won my first champion ribbon with COUNTRY CHARM ELLEEBAMA. I'm a soft touch when it comes to any animal, each one is very special. Sent around 40 kilo of fleece to melbourne last year to have it spun into balls,along with a few dooners. Our balls of wool have arrived along with our doonas. We are so happy with our products. We are taking orders for our doonas and our wool is available for sale. |

We are keen on the animals and on their fleece. Both of us spin.
Although we want to improve the alpacas in every way we can, we would most like to produce nice-looking, vigorous animals of silver grey and blue black colour with very even, soft fleeces, without hair, that remain usable as long as possible.
We can provide females of different ages and levels of quality and also males as pets, livestock guards or stud. (Please see our website for animals for sale now.) We go to about three shows a year. |

N.S.W. | | About this breeder: | “Wildwood” is a traditional 1300 acre farm at Ardlethan in the heart of the Riverina N.S.W. where we have been successfully growing cereal crops and raising sheep since the 60’s. We started breeding alpacas in 1992 and found that they were well suited to our healthy stock producing area. Although we were early entrants in the industry, we would be one of the best kept secrets as we rarely show our animals, believing this to be a stressful situation on all concerned.
Over the years, we have used many superior blood lines to improve our blacks and our whites. We now have a range of colours with some suris included. Our animals have always thrived in their open and undulating paddocks.
At present we have 7 registered sires including our white “Ladysmith Leader of the Pack” and our black “Wildwood Scuddi” both of whom have had show success at Wodonga.
At present we have a wide selection of both pregnant and empty females, entire males and wethers suitable for guard duty or pets. We are always happy to provide after sales service. Make contact and see what we have to offer. |

GOULBURN NSW 2580 | | About this breeder: | Who We AreOrrapoora 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 and now run some 120 alpacas, both our own and agisted.  Where We AreWe are at ‘Airlie’, 135 Mt Baw Baw Rd Goulburn NSW, on 60 rolling acres high above, and only 7 km from, the city of Goulburn, in fine merino wool country. Our farm is very easy to find with bitumen to the front gate. Please contact us to arrange a visit. We have both native and improved pastures which seem to suit our animals well. The Goulburn district is excellent country for alpacas, with low humidity, no paralysis ticks, and no known sporidesmin to date. The Goulburn area is becoming more and more popular with alpaca breeders and the alpaca community is steadily increasing. Learn of our husbandry practices and general care routine.  At Orrapoora we have a large range of alpacas, both in respect to colour and age, for you to choose from. All our alpacas are dual-registered with the Australasian Alpaca Breeders Association (AABA) and the Australian Alpaca Association (AAA). Packages of animals can be tailored to suit your circumstances and we invite you to contact us to arrange inspections. Good discounts are provided for bulk sales, and we can offer interest-free finance over 12 months. All our females are sold either pregnant or come with a free mating to any Orrapoora male. All our stud males are dual-registered with the Australasian Alpaca Breeders Association (AABA) and the Australian Alpaca Association (AAA), and are further being DNA-verified with the AABA, meaning their progeny are closer to the top tier of the Australasian Alpaca Register (AAR). Fertility of our females and live births are both guaranteed. | | Latest News: | 8th AprilVale The Don. 15th February 2009As we are now in closing down mode, we are offering most of our herd at heavily reduced prices.

MT BARKER SA | | About this breeder: | Arcadian Alpacas began in late 1994 and are now nationally and internationally recognised breeders of quality grey huacayas. Our herd also includes some select whites and fawns plus the occasional very dark animal. We proudly breed big, well-conformed, vigorous animals with fleece traits focussed on exceptionally soft handle, lustre, length of staple and uniformity. | | Latest News: | June 2009 : BIG PLANS FOR 2010 !!
The big news from Arcadian is that 2010 BECKONS as a year for extended leave (15 years without a holiday is enough !)
This means that throughout the rest of 2009 and into early 2010 we will be pursuing a SIGNIFICANT STOCK SALE of about half our herd of females and a few stud males, in order to reduce workload for 2010 to enable easier periods of absence.
We are keenest to sell animals in packages altho some will be available as individual sales. Check our Arcadian website regularly for the most up to date listings or contact us direct, as not all stock for sale will be listed and an enquiry for one animal might lead to the release of an unlisted one for sale.
Reasonable autumn rain has at least brought up some good green feed in the paddocks but the dams are still effectively dry and will need very heavy rains to get much run-off. Fingers crossed, eh ?
Our herd has thrived (again) on its summer diet of quality meadow hay plus some lucerne and oaten too. The meadow hay this year is probably the best we've ever purchased with almost 50% clover content along with great fine grasses, all so soft and green that you could believe it was only cut yesterday.. good stuff. We bought extra to store in our big shed so that we have a good start for 2009 summer.
Young stud males Arcady Shilling and Arcady Corinthian both have their first few crias one the ground. All are nice types (Corinthian wins the Brownie points though as his are females !)
Arcady Paua, another excellent very even light silver grey boy, has his first female spitting-off from his trial mating at about 19.5 months old. He will be available for outside matings in spring 2009.
20/02/2008
The season in SA continues very very dry. One of our dams is already dry and the other very low. It is sad to see the paddocks so dry and grey. Our repasturing programme from 2007 had some success but without good follow-up rains at the right time in winter and spring, the results have been patchy. We will have to redo much of the acreage in 2008, season permitting.
After a hefty run of male crias we have had to bite the bullet and release some of our proven girls for sale ! Those of you looking for excellent buys with some great colour genetics, esp grey, should visit our website for more details. Several other females may be available for purchase (to package buyers only / conditions may apply). Our autumn drop of crias is due in March / April, and we envision some interesting babies.
We also have a number of young males (weanlings > yearlings) coming along who might be of interest to the coloured breeder. Please enquire.
Those looking for potential companion or guard wethers should also contact us, as we will have more available in the next few months.
For those looking for a very special pair of boys as pets / companions / guards, ask about Ambassador and Wicked. A pair of really gentle-natured solid dark fawn fellows. Both are rising 1YO.
29/06/07 : Our Autumn 2007 sales promotion has now FINISHED. Check out our website www.arcadian-alpacas.com.au for further updates.
We still have a few females listed for sale and a good number of young males (it was one of those years...) some of whom are pet / wether quality but a few who have breeding potential for the smaller breeder esp. coloureds. However, the stand-out this year has been Arcady Corinthian, a SW male who has picked up Champion Junior Male at his only show to date. He is for sale by negotiation.
We have had reasonable opening autumn rains and our pasture renovation programme is well under-way. We've had very good sales to help reduce stock numbers but it is still a bit like playing musical paddocks until the new pasture and crops are established.
We look forward to beautiful feed in spring and hopefully some hay for the cutting !
NB New 'stock for sale' listings will be available after the spring drop of crias.
AUTUMN 2007 PRE-RENOVATION SALES RELEASE
We are planning some serious pasture and property renovation this year (as long as the rain gods are kind to us !).
To enable us to do this more easily, we have decided to accelerate our projected stock sales for 2007. We aim to sell another 20 animals, mostly females, before the end of autumn 2007.
Many of these are animals we would otherwise like to keep in our breeding plan. Most are white, fawn or black as these are outside our main breeding plan (grey). We will only offer one or two greys for sale.
We have had very good sales during 2006 and have already sold some of the females who are part of our 'Autumn 2007' sales release. We look most favourably upon package sales to good homes where the animals will be well-nourished and cared for kindly. Packages of pregnant females (black or very dark, light or medium fawn or the rare and beautiful appaloosa) may be specifically arranged. Some will have cria at foot. A number are mated to our Champion dark fawn sire, Arcady Zegna, who is now exported to New Zealand.
We also plan a rather quiet season within our herd for matings. This will leave us with some very worthy stud males cooling their heels rather more than they would like ! Therefore, some young, proven males may be available for sale or lease to qualified breeders. Conditions may apply.
Genuine enquiries are encouraged and all enquiries will be treated in confidence. |

| Breeder/Farm Name: | Waradene Alpacas | | Herd Size: | 250 | | Contact Name: | Sharon Warland | | Telephone Number: | 08 85323029 | | Nearest Town: | Murray Bridge | | Web Site: | http://www.waradenealpacas.com.au | | Email: | Click Here To Contact | | Address: | PO Box 595
Murray Bridge | | About this breeder: | John and Sharon Warland own and run WARADENE ALPACAS which was established in July 2003. We are a family run alpaca business with our children learning all aspects of alpaca management and showing. We diversified from Dairy farming in August 2003, in which we did for over 35 years under the Waradene Stud Farms Banner.
The name WARADENE has been derived from the surnames WARLAND and DEANE, which is from Johns' parents, Louis James Warland and Roma Hillam Deane.
Some people have spelt our stud name Warradene, but it has always been one R for us, like our surname.
We were experienced in showing Dairy Cattle (Holsteins and Jersey Dairy Cattle), in which we hold records at Royal Adelaide Show for Supreme Dairy Cow twice along with other shows. With our knowledge of showing and genetics, we have put it to good use with our alpacas to improve the quality of our herd and the breeding outcome.
3 of our children have developed their own alpaca herds. All are owned under the Waradene Alpacas banner, but are the childrens responsibility for helping with and breeding.
We aim to breed a quality fine coloured herd of alpacas both in suri and huacaya alpacas. We are known for our fineness in coloured alpacas and have been successful in having some of our alpacas exported overseas, namely Waradene Pyralis of Cambridge (Superfine Medium Grey), Waradene Cuba Chagga (Solid Black), Waradene St Patrick (Solid Medium Fawn) and Waradene Bellisimo Perfection (Solid Medium Fawn).
Our successes have included Best of Colour in White, Black, Brown, Medium to Dark Fawn and Grey in the Huacaya Alpacas. We have also received Champions and Supremes for our alpacas.
We have won Champion and Grand Champion Suri Alpacas at shows.
We have also shown our coloured fleeces, to win several Grand Championship, Championships and Reserve Champion Fleece of Show, Supreme Colour and Best of Colour Fleece of Show.
A bit about each of us:
SHARON manages the husbandry side of the business as well as assisting with showing.
Sharon was formerly the Vice President of the Australian Alpaca Association, SA region, and was on committee for 3 years. In her first year, she was the secretary for the region.
Sharon also co-convenes the Colour Classic SA with 3 other SA breeders (Wendy Jones, Leanne Pearce & James Wheeler). This is held in Murray Bridge during August.
Sharon was responsible for convening the first Alpaca Extravaganza held in Murray Bridge and received a nomination for the SA Great awards for her efforts.
Sharon has been the Animal Health Representative for SA, trained as an accredited Industry Liaison Officer and assists new members with their problems or questions.
Sharon was also active in obtaining the NATIONAL SHOW AND SALE for 2009 in Adelaide. She was the secretary for this committee.
Since retiring from committee work, Sharon is now the co-editor of the SA Regions Magazine, Read and Breed with her friend and collegue, Rhonda Pitt from Lomavista Alpacas.
JOHN has formerly been on the committee as an ordinary member for the Australian Alpaca Association SA Region.
John is usually found doing all the jobs that no-one wants to do, or behind the scenes work that no-one knows to do. He is always there to help out.
John does halter training for shows and roustabouting at shearing. He assists with the husbandry side (he holds, Sharon jabs).
John has assisted Sharon and the other convenors with Colour Classic and Alpaca Extravaganza, and is a valuable member of the task force.
AIMEE is expecting the new addition to the Waradene Alpacas family. Aimee has 'retired'from farm life for the time being until baby is able to be involved.
During showing time, Aimee is often 'borrowed' at shows to help with leading animals.
Aimee has been a model for the Alpaca Extravaganza fashion parade.
Aimees herd specialises in black. She has won many ribbons in the black classes.
LUKE is at school and is studying agriculture. He is interested in all animals.
Luke is the quiet achiever in our group. He used to be the smaller one of our family, but if you spot him in the ring, he is the tall skinny one.
Luke travels to school so he does not get alot of time doing the husbandry, but is there for shows and shearing etc.
Luke bred Waradene Warrior Jacinta who won Champion Jnr Female Mt Pleasant 2007. He specialises in whites.
JESSICA is the baby of the family but probably one of the most knowledgeable.
Jessica trains most of our show team for the shows. She is experienced with birthing, husbandry, shearing, etc. Jessica will willingly give up going to school if there is an alpaca of hers about to give birth, or when shearing is on.
Jessica can often be seen in the ring leading the smallest to nearly the largest animals during show season.
She is not scared to get in a give something a go.
Jessica bred Waradene Pride, who was Champion Jnr Male Hamilton 2006.
Jessicas herd is fawn and browns.
MATT has a degree in Marine Biology. He is at Uni completing his 2nd degree.
TIM is away working most of the time and does not get time to spend with the alpacas.
We like to offer our clients a pretty extensive assistance programme. We are willing to help any new or experienced alpaca breeder out with their problem where applicable. We are willing to assist the breeder with problems with crias not feeding, halter training methods, etc, within normal limitations. If we've experienced it, we will help out, or try and find out someone that has had similar problems, to find a solution. Although we don't take over and do the work, we can be there to assist if needed (where possible) or talk you through a problem birth etc over the phone.
Contact us to see our alpacas, the vast range of females and males that are available for sale. We offer a layby system so the initial outlay does not seem so extreme.
We offer females free agistment whilst being mated until pregnancy (usually 60 days). We do not however take on agistees.
We are situated on reclaimed swamp lands of the River Murray, approximately 10km south of Murray Bridge, heading towards Jervois.

We are MN1 equivalent, Q-Alpaca registration number 05/0116.

APRIL 2007
We surprised shoppers at Rundle Mall on Saturday 14th April, by taking 5 alpacas on halters and leads with us to walk up the mall. We were there for nearly 3 hours and didn't even make it 1/2 way up the mall. There were so many interested people. We were there for the Alpaca Extravaganza promotion. Channel 7 news took footage of us, and had it on the news. We were very appreciative of their support and coverage.
We also held a trade site at Murray Bridge Showgrounds at their market on April 15th, to help promote the Alpaca Extravaganza the following weekend.
MAY 2007
We showed at Stawell Show, Victoria. We took over 8 animals, with 6 being placed. Another came close but due to size of classes, he was not awarded a ribbon. Our winnings were:
1st Jnr Grey Male with Waradene Pyralis - the judge commented on his fine dense fleece and said he should do well when older;
1st Int Grey Female with Waradene Nostradamus Porsche - the judge commented on her unusual colouring but said she was very fine and evenly coloured all over;
3rd Int Black Female with Waradene Nostradamus Precious - her fineness and lustre was very apparent but due to wet weather and getting damp overnight, her fleece did not have enough time to come back as we would have liked;
3rd Int White Female with Waradene Warrior Jacinta - the judge liked her but once again, her fleece was still damp;
3rd Jnr White Male with Waradene Colloidal Silver - the judge like his fleece but it was also damp;
3rd Int White Male with Waradene Pride - the judge commented on his fineness and density, but the fleece was damp;

Kooralbyn Qld | | About this breeder: | Hinchcliffe Alpacas was birthed officially in 2008 after a love affair with alpacas which began in May, 2007 with our original purchase of 2 wethers, Jack, a solid black huacaya, and Barney, a solid medium brown huacaya whom we purchased from Rathdowney Alpaca Farm, not far from our acreage home at Kooralbyn. It was not long before we added Southland Raskol a solid white huacaya male who was later joined by a weanling Teddy who has a superb chocolate brown soft, fine and crimpy fleece and his mate Phantom a solid white huacaya male alpaca with very fine, crimpy lustrous fleece.
I have heard it said that Alpacas are addictive and this may be true, they certainly are therapeutic and have a calming effect on most people when interacting. As mentioned previously our original motivation for the purchase of alpacas was for lawnmowers on our acreage property but we fell in love with the alpaca as a farm animal and also developed a high respect for their wonderful fibre and environmentally friendly characteristics. After our first shearing in 2007 it was very exciting to receive our first supply of natural spun yarn from our own animals, which was able to be knitted up into wonderful garments or sold to local knitters.
"Our mission is to produce a high yielding quality fleece with softness of handle and lower micron."
Due to the limitations of the size of our own small acreage, after purchasing 7 pregnant females and one stud sire, our careers as Alpaca Breeders began with the offer of a facility of our new breeding herd being agisted and maintained at Rathdowney Alpaca Farm. Since this time, our herd has grown in size and number with several exciting additions to our beloved alpaca family. |

Myrniong
Vic | | About this breeder: | 4 generations of our family have lived on our farm, and we have been breeding alpacas for 14 years.
We like to keep our operation small, and manageable, we know all our animals by name, and like to offer a "no nonsense", honest approach to husbandry and sales.
This approach, we believe, has allowed us to offer some wonderfully bred stock for very reasonable prices, from pets/herdguards, to show animals, and potential herdsires.
Korobeit Alpacas operates as a farm, and we believe that, just like with cattle and grain, the market should decide the price of the product. Some breeders set a price for their animals based on what they would "like" to receive, and what they think their stock "should" be worth, and then try and find a buyer. This approach is fine, and good luck to them, as long as the buyer has done their homework, and ends up happy with the deal.
We, on the other hand, have been using a different approach.
Our "sale list", includes all animals that we believe have something to offer buyers, and let them decide which stock to choose, to suit their needs. Our pricing formula is as follows:
Cost of production
Plus Percentage of farm costs**
Plus Modest profit (otherwise, whats the point)
Equals Good outcome for both sides of the deal.
** (we try and sell about 10 animals per year, so, roughly, each animal carries about %10 of running costs)
Sorry to bore you with all this, but, just remember that a $6000 animal is "not necessarily" four times better than a similar one for $1500.
Thanks for reading, and feel free to contact me to discuss any issues I may have brought up.

2009 VICTORIAN BUSHFIRES
What a month and a half leading up to “Black Saturday”…no rain…a full week of 40 degree plus days. Our property at KINGSVIEW ALPACAS had some long and very dry grass around it, added to that six weeks of non-maintenance due to the extreme heat and other domestic factors.
You have heard it all before, all the factors were there and you know the devastating result. Our property at KINGSVIEW ALPACAS was extremely lucky compared to others in the area. We evacuated at the suggestion of the CFA, as we had no fire fighting equipment, and left our house, our alpacas and our property in their hands.
We were able back to look at the property approximately 36 hours after the tragedy to find our house, alpacas and property unburnt. The CFA were able to stop a 750m grass fire front on our boundary fence after the heli-tanker stopped in from the air and dropped a load of water on our house for good measure. Our property is now the border for the fire break that has subsequently been made by the CFA as a precautionary measure around the fires perimeter in our area.
It was six days before we received our electricity back (many still haven’t 2 weeks later) and as we drove down our charcoaled and baron road and pulled up to our gate, we noticed something new amongst the alpacas, with an instant smile we new things were about to start getting better as we had that glimmer of hope that you get from new life. A male cria, with a beautiful dark fawn colouration, his name is Smokey. He will make a great pet and be a reminder to us to keep our chins up as our community works its way through this tragedy.

SUMMER HEAT
In Melbourne this week the weather has been consistently in the 40 degree range, which got me thinking, earlier in the day, how do our alpacas withstand not only the heat but the hot wind that goes with it?
On our property at KINGSVIEW ALPACAS during the summer months we run three mobs of alpacas, the females, the males in two groups with the stud males split up.
I considered the plight of the females especially, some have cria a foot from the spring season (rehydrating not only themselves but a cria) and the pregnant females that are due in Autumn (who are carrying around the extra weight). I have visited them a number of times a day and observed that they cleverly (and upon observation seemed an obvious thing to do) sat amongst the mini pine plantation most of the day, staying out of direct sunlight and also out of the wind and only made their way to the dam when necessary. It wasn’t until the evening that they went out in the paddock to graze and feed.
The key to this kind of weather is some form of natural shelter where possible and keep on eye out for some of the more vulnerable alpacas.

BASIC FACTS ABOUT ALPACAS BEFORE YOU BUY
Alpacas require the company of other alpacas, therefore you should buy a minimum of two alpacas. You may be buying a herd guard for sheep in which case the alpaca will bond with the sheep.
Alpacas require shade and a clean water supply in their paddock. If the pasture is inadequate you will need to supply additional feed such as hay and lucerne hay (for example).
Alpacas require shearing once a year, you will need to find a shearer that services your area, or find somewhere you can take the alpacas to be shorn. Ask the breeder about a shearing contact when you purchase the alpaca.
Maintenance of your alpacas will include trimming toenails, vaccinations throughout the year and other miscellaneous issues (health, accidents, birthing). Ask the breeder about any assistance or training that they can provide when you purchase the alpaca.
At KINGSVIEW ALPACAS we provide all new breeders who purchase an alpaca with the advice (and hands on training if required) on how to maintain your alpacas throughout the seasons of the year.
27th November, 2008
ALPACA SHEARING
November is the month for shearing at KINGSVIEW ALPACAS and for the first time in 5 years the weather forecast was for possible showers. Any other weekend and I would love showers, however when shearing that makes it very difficult for two reasons: firstly, takes longer to shear if damp (don’t bother if wet) and secondly, you need to shed your animals at least the day before if they are dry.
We were reasonably lucky that the day before was dry and that the alpacas were only surface damp from overnight. They were all rounded up the day before into groups and the first group were in the holding yards drying a little from the wind.
Over the years we have not really modified the location or the procedure for our shearing, however with more and more alpacas every year we have progressed with the use of a rouse-a-bout to keep the whole process moving along. That was a success this year and we were provided with further advice on modifications to the holding yard setup for next year.
Overall the shearing went well, expect for the out of the blue cold snap that hit the next weekend, barely over 8 degrees all day and that was out of the wind, who knows what the wind chill was. In the shed they went again to dry off and keep warm, with no fleece on them it would have been cold. It’s 5 days later and the air conditioner is in use, you have got to love Melbourne weather!

HOW TO START - ALPACAS
It is five years ago that KINGSVIEW ALPACAS started at the very beginning of owning Alpacas. The following is a list that we did to gather as much information about alpacas:
1. The Internet. Do the research, it pays off at the start and along the way. In fact you never stop learning from alpaca stud websites, association websites, forums, blogs and more recently twitter.
2. Attend as many alpaca shows and special events (such as the Alpaca Fiesta). There you will have a chance to talk with alpaca breeders. The majority of breeders will be keen to chat about alpacas and answer questions from first hand experience. We found it most beneficial to pick up the show catalogue while watching the show and marking the alpacas that we liked and noting the judges comments. This information will assist when you go to purchase your first alpacas (yes alpacas...you can't have just one!).
3. Visit as many alpaca farms as practical. There you can talk direct with the alpaca breeder not only about alpacas but farming in general, especially handy if you have recently moved onto land. If you request, you may be able to participate in some of the alpaca activities (vaccinations, toe nail trimming, matings and if you have special timing a birth) to give you some hands on experience.
4. If you plan to ultimately be an alpaca breeder, membership of the Australian Alpaca Association from the start will have you on the right track. It provides excellent reading material and also includes a comprehensive information kit, 1/4ly magazines (national and local) and a copy of the alpaca trading post "Alpacas on the move".

We welcome FIRE WARRIOR to our stud.
It is with great pleasure that we welcome FIRE WARRIOR to KINGSVIEW ALPACAS. He comes to us from the Shanbrooke Alpaca Stud, where the 2008 National Supreme Champion was bred.
FIRE WARRIOR is an upstanding well conformed male that is full of presence. He has excellent coverage and is true to type. He carries a dense fleece which is well aligned and uniform with the crimp running low into the chest area. He is sired by the famous Accoyo Rasputin who has produced many Champions while his Dam was a specially selected female from Peru for Shanbrooke's breeding program.
FIRE WARRIOR began work recently and we expect to see the fruits of his labour starting Autumn 2010. He is available for outside matings.

FIRST CRIA FOR THE SEASON
Last Saturday was the day, a beautiful sunny day, a day alpacas at KINGSVIEW ALPACAS traditionally love to give birth. We knew it was on based on the mothers antics the previous day. She just would not sit still and by the end of the day looked very uncomfortable. Being the first for the season we try for no complications and the mother was a Peruvian import (from Jolimont) and her age is just old (something over 15 years old).
It was 8am in the morning and I remembered that today could be the day and sure enough there she was totally exhausted lying on her side down hill. I didn't like the downhill position and tried to move her to no avail. I gave them another half an hour to see the head and front legs of a healthy white female cria. 10 mins later after observing there was no change. So I gave the old girl a hand and gently pulled on the front legs to get the final part of the body out. Done.
The cria (like the rest of her siblings) is above average in height and weight. She has had to put up with a wild range of weather in the last week ranging from windy to calm, mild temps to icy hail and everything in between and she is still going strong...got to get back on the look out...that's just the first this season. |

Australia | | About this breeder: | OPEN FARM WEEK - from 1 - 9 May 2010, I shall be participating in this AAA initiative so please come and visit, have some 'hands on' with the animals, collect information leaflets, handle some fleeces, see the farm layout and of course take the time to ask me any questions you have regading alpacas. Phone me about another date if the 'week' is not suitable. I have been breeding these delightful animals for 14 years and the interest and enjoyment continues. I find them perfect for my small farm and do most of the managment tasks and all the halter and lead training myself. My focus has been in breeding quality huacayas with sound conformation, healthy dispositions, reliable breeders, good mothers, easy to handle and of course exhibiting soft handling fleece. Although I have mainly used fawn sires the current colours include white and grey as well as shades of fawn. | | Latest News: | After 15 years my circumstances have changed and I have reluctantly decided to not keep alpacas any longer. So this gives someone the opportunity to acquire some well breed animals, all halter and lead trained, at very reasonable prices. 4 young females for $3000 if sold together or $1000 each. Phone 5635 4288. No obligation visits are welcome. My place at Hill End [Gippsland] is 5 ks north of Willow Grove which is 23 ks north of Moe or Trafalgar or about 25 minutes drive south of Noojee, Regards Julie. |

Coming from a small herd most of our alpacas are friendly and are also used to children and 'our' dogs. They will eat out of your hands and will follow a bucket of grain anywhere!
Our main priority is to keep happy and healthy alpacas who will bring joy to others as they have to us. |
