Since there are just two of us, one shed, and one hundred acres, each year we must sell alpacas. Although we concentrate on breeding grey and black, we also have rose greys and several fawns and browns. Therefore we may have alpacas in the brown range for sale. We do not list fleece stats for females here, so email for fleece stats and other information. We do have an ABN, we do not collect GST, prices include transfers, we are in Qalpaca 05/0081. Usually animals are halter-trained. Cranberry, Cloudberry, Myrtle, Lowell, Wimsey, Flynn and Bryn have been sold. New animals will be put up soon. This page was updated on September 1, 2010.

Roan or rose grey FEMALE
Sire: Forestglen Platinum LG
Dam: Janannie Park Juanita SBLK
Price: $1700
Julia is a well-grown female with a very good frame. Her colour was a surprise since her dam is solid black. Although pale, she is definitely roan (brown and white fibres), with the dark cap and white face of a grey. She should be carrying recessive black and should be able to produce dark colours and grey. Her fleece is fine and dense with adequate style. Both her parents have retained fine fleeces. We have her maternal half-brother, Meriadoc, at stud. She was mated to Tarraganda Lodge Ekeko, our new acquisition, on May 18, 2010. (Photo 2009)
Price: from $200
We usually have a number of alpaca males available. Adults are halter-trained. The price varies according to the animal and the number purchased. Please enquire about pets or herd guards. We have accumulated more stud males than we can possibly use. A number are for sale. Please see names listed and refer to stud page for description. Delivery may be possible.

Red Cloud is Pinkerton's full brother. He is a slightly darker shade of rose grey and unusually even in colour (I spun his first fleece and the yarn didn't vary). His fleece is very like Pinkerton's, though not as impressive in his third fleece as Pinkerton is in his fourth. His first fleece tested 18.1µ, 4.3µSD 23.8%CV, 98.6C%CF and his second weighed over 3.6 kilos and tested 19.9µ, 4.3µSD, 21.6%CV, 97.5%CF (AWTA November 2008, 2009). He is not yet certified.(Photo 2010)

We have coloured alpaca fleeces available at reasonable prices (plus postage) for entire saddles. They are relatively free of vegetable matter. We both spin and can discuss what you need.
We have handknit shawls and scarves of handspun yarn for sale. Price depends on size, thickness of yarn, and complexity, but from $40-60 for scarves and $200-250 for shawls of thicker yarn and about double for thinner yarn.
