Our adventure with alpacas all started with our parents. Over ten years ago, mom and dad got into the alpaca industry and since have become successful breeders with their huacaya herd. Their specialization is in white full Peruvian huacayas with strong Accoyo genetics. The fleece produced by these wonderful white animals is a fiber fanatic's dream. So, in continuing with the family business we decided to jump into the industry and establish our own herd. Keeping separate from our parents, we chose to breed white and light suri alpacas that are full Peruvian with Accoyo genetics. Since starting out in 2004 with a single juvenile female, we have grown to a small herd of 15.Our breeding efforts have produced a herd of suri alpacas that come from strong genetic backgrounds, are conformationally sound, stand on strong frames, and have dense, tight lustrous locks. They are winners in both our eyes and in the show circuits.
