Alpacas as pets

We have some older (and younger) female alpacas that we would like to find good homes for. They are non breeding females or females that should not be bred for different reasons. They are all healthy and because they are not pregnant are easy to handle. They are offered free to approved homes only. Their health and well being is of the utmost importance to us - they will need to be shorn yearly and have their worming injections 3-4 times a year. Being on 10 acres we are running out of room - so if you have the land and would be interested in giving our girls a home please contact us.

 
Knitting Yarn

We have just sent away 10kg of our best fleeces to be made up into skeins of 8ply knitting yarn. We have created a mix so there will be two colours available - one should be a cream and the other we are not exactly sure on how it will turn out although it should be a very light brown or medium fawn colour. We will hopefully have it available at the end of March or beginning of April - it sells quickly so if you would like some luxurious alpaca wool contact us and we'll let you know when it arrives to you can have a look at it.

 
Our new stud male - Encantador Ring Master

We have a new stud male to join our stable of working males - Ring Master is sired by the 2003 National Supreme Champion - Blue Grass Centurian, who is also a multiple Supreme champion winner in animal AND fleece classes.

Ring Master's dam and dam's family have produced show winners that have held their micron throughout their years - a testament that Ring Master's super-fine fleece which displays pencil stapling with a well defined high-amplitude crimp, will keep his fineness. He is medium fawn - or if you like, a honey colour - he will be working for us early in 2010. Ring Master brings another range of fabulous genetics to infuse into our herd including Jolimont Warrior, Jolimont Conquistador, Purrumbete Vanilla and Windsong Valley Royal Inca.

Congratulations to new partners

We would like to congratulate our new partners - Coolaroo Alpaca Stud and Signature Alpacas - for the purchase of shares in our champion sire Regal House Mr. Darcy - proof obviously IS in the progeny with both studs having Darcy progeny on the ground and being so impressed they wanted to be able to utilise him more. I'm sure Darcy won't mind!

Shearing time

Shearing is completed and just in time! Very hot weather for the week after shearing and they have had time to get used to being without "clothes" to cope with the cool snap!
We are extremely happy with the fleeces that have come off our herd this year with the younger progeny exhibiting some fabulous fleeces with excellent crimp style, density and fineness.
We offer raw fleece for sale - watch our products for sale space - details coming shortly.

Steward Courses

Alicia has been extremely busy in 2009 and 2010 running steward courses around the countryside on behalf of the AAA Ltd. She is in high demand in all states with all regions having very eager participants - so there should be a lot more qualified stewards and convenors out there now.

RH Mr. Darcy progeny

Darcy's progeny continue their success in the show ring during the show season in 2009. There are far too many accolades to put in this space - suffice to say we are very happy to see his progeny out there and congratulate everyone with their success.

Summer Breeding
To minimize the stress for our alpacas (and ourselves!) we do not mate or have births throughout the hot summer months where our temperatures can easily reach 40°C and above. As alpacas do not have a "season" as such and they can be mated at any time of the year, this is a husbandry decision for Regal House Alpacas to ensure we have strong healthy crias with minimal impact on their dams.
