Such Trust!

Ian’s Diary, August 2018

We’ve been breeding alpacas now for 5 years, and it is tempting to think that you’ve seen it all before, until something surprises you.

Supreme champion stud and reserve supreme fleece producing companion

As we are a small herd we need to change our genetics regularly. We are selling our supreme champion herd sire Hilly Ridge Balius Blue as we now have so many of his daughters in the herd.

Supreme Champion Hilly Ridge Balius Blue is a spectacular young male with an  advanced dense fleece. Working for the first time in 2015 at just two years old, Balius has produced crias every year from 2016 and they consistently inherit his looks and density.  Balius seems to be particularly good at making a step change improvement in both fineness and density when used over coarse dark females.  When used over dark females, most of his offspring have been dark solid colours.

 

We know that sometimes it can be difficult to find compatible paddock companions for Machos. So we are offering a package of Balius with one of his sons (castrated) as a companion.  This would be a great package for someone who wants quality suri fibre.  Cnut has inherited his wonderful fleece from Balius which has fineness, lustre, uniformity and an excellent yield – his fleece won Reserve Supreme Champion at the Three Counties 2018.  As a castrated male he should retain the fine qualities of his fleece.

Package includes:

• Supreme Champion Hilly Ridge Balius Blue, proven stud £1,800
• Castrated male, Light Fawn Park Side Cnut £600

Package price £2,100

 

Proven Studs (Black and Light) and Companion Package

As we are a small herd we need to change our genetics regularly. We are selling our champion herd sire Pinkney Jetstream as we now have so many of his daughters in the herd and we also have his sons.  We are also selling our proven young stud Whistling Dream Catcher as he is closely related to one of our new young studs.

We know that sometimes it can be difficult to find compatible paddock companions for Machos. So we are offering a package of two studs and a companion wether as this is a compatible group that have lived together for several years:

• Champion producing Black Herd Sire Pinkney Jetstream – list price £1,500
• Proven young Light Stud Whistling Dream Catcher – List price £990
• White castrated male Suriel Crackerjack (d.o.b 3/9/12) – list price £500

We are offering a substantial package discount and the package price is just £2,250

SOLD – Female (non-breeding) with female cria at foot

We have recently sold a female with her with her female cria at foot.

Pregnant Female with cria at foot

Park Side Berenice is available for sale with her 2018 male cria at foot.

Berenice is a young female (born 31.07.2015) and this is her first cria, but she has proved herself to be an excellent mum.

Berenice is sired by Multiple Champion, Alpaca Stud Anarchy and she won Champion Fawn Fleece and Best of British Fleece at the 2016 Eastern Alpaca Group Fleece show.

Berenice has been mated to our new young stud, Whistling Gisborn, a Travatore son, who has incredible density as well as lustre and fineness.

Her cria, born 19.05.2018 is already well grown and a good show prospect.  He is sired by our own supreme champion Hilly Ridge Balius Blue and has a very lustrous fleece – like his dam and sire.

Berenice is halter trained and easy to handle. She is up to date with husbandry: vaccinated, faecal tested and toenails trimmed.

Berenice will need to go to a home where she will have at least two other female alpacas for companionship (suris or huacaya) and the facilities to wean the boy cria in a separate paddock with suitable companions. We have packages of female alpacas on offer and can also arrange “Best of Both Worlds” packages for you if you would like a mix of suri and huacaya alpacas.

Price £1,950 (No VAT)
