We’re based in Lancashire in the rural part of the Fylde coast between Preston and Blackpool, in a beautiful small village called Singleton.
I started with alpacas in 2008 I bought my first two pregnant females and I’ve never looked back, I’ve always had horses but these alpacas were completely new to me, I was immediately addicted by their gentle and calming nature and it wasn’t long before I had to have more alpacas.
Then the crias ( baby alpaca ) started to arrive and it just got even better, these adorable long legged, cuddly babies were just amazing, and what fantastic Mums they are! The whole herd of alpacas all keep a close eye on each other’s crias.
At the moment I have a herd of 21 all different colours with 6 of my females are pregnant for this year my birthing season starts May to September.
I like to keep my herd size around this number so I know they will have plenty of grass to eat, but I do love it when they have their crias, therefore occasionally I do have to sell some on to five star alpaca homes to make way for next year’s babies.
All my alpacas are registered with the British Alpaca Society and are microchipped.
