Holistic Management Of Huacaya And Suri Alpacas In Central Queensland.

Be the first to review

We are located in Central Queensland just 20kms from Rockhampton towards Emu Park on the Capricorn Coast and nestled in a valley bounded by National Park and State Forest.

Our love affair with Alpacas began in 2010 and we have both Huacaya (wa-ky-uh) and Suri (soo-ree) Alpacas.

We’re proud of the fact that we are a small farm, being very “hands-on” with our Alpacas and those entrusted to our care, with individual attention and lots of TLC.

One of the main reasons we became involved with Alpacas is that they are environmentally friendly, easy to handle and just so damned cute.

We endeavour to live in a more sustainable manner having a small thriving orchard as well as several veggie beds for our own chemical free produce.

In accordance with these principles we believe in using natural remedies and medicines where possible, choosing not to use chemicals unnecessarily on our farm or in our Alpacas.

We believe that natural prevention is better than chemical “cure”.

We prefer to not use routine mass injections, drenches, etc. as this practice quickly builds up resistance resulting in weak and compromised animals.
