Offering the Power of Pedigree and the Proof of Progeny
 

We breed for champion alpacas with fine fleece. Our heritage of top class genetics  is outstanding — sourced from this country and overseas.

Limited season for matings to black championship stud, Spades are Trumps, who is coming from Australia and will be available in the first half of 2012.

Our studs include imported studs as well as our NZ born boys, who join the stud stable on their own merit.

In our stud stables we offer a great choice of top quality, show winning, studs from the top genetic lines of Australia and USA.

They include many top accoyo Peruvian lines proven through pedigree lines with generations of offspring and years of Show performance.

You simply will not find a stud offering of this comprehensive nature, anywhere in Australasia.

Our Stud Stables
Our white stable is led by Brutus, our USA import with the fineness factor. We now have championship sons from Brutus  in our stud stable too. Look for Lennon, Titus and Black Adder.

Imported from Australia is Encounter, a son of the famous Conquistador, as is Commander, from Commisario, and Tulacan Prince, son of the famous Leading Lady. Heir Apparent from the Australia ET programme. Our full Accoyo male from Australia is Saintly.

A New Zealand born boy in white, bringing the rare Pluro genetics to New Zealand, is Kiwi Pluro.

Our fawn stable is led by a Brutus son in fawn, multi-champion winning Titus, supported by champion winner Tucson Gold. Capricorn, a son of champion High South, carries on his father's work.

Our darker colour stable boasts the USA national champion black, Maipo, who had black and grey progeny and a  Brutus son in black, Black Adder. For a limited season only in 2012 we offer Spades are Trumps, an Australian born champion.

Especially for greys we offer Highland Smoke who is throwing grey cria. Maipo and Saintly have both had grey cria. Chameleon throws appaloosa and fawn cria.

We have imported studs from the well-known Australian Purrumbete Peruvian and USA accoyo bloodlines.

Their genetic improvement is proven — they endow their progeny with denser fleece, greater shear weight, and finer fibre.

 

 

 

 

Most of our matings come with a guaranteed live birth or a free return service.
Conditions apply - see our policy on this page.

 

All mating is one-on-one supervised pen mating, with two spit-off pregnancy tests.

 

On farm mating.
No agistment fee for visiting female or cria while female getting pregnant (up to 10 weeks).

 

Females withdrawn from the mating programme once matings have commenced shall be charged 20% of the stud fee and may be charged any agistment.

Studs for Sale

We have a selection of young males available from these top lines for sale as studs.  Some are already proven, with cria on the ground.

Live Birth Guarantee and Re-mate Policy   

For most full-fee matings in the Canterbury area we offer a live birth guarantee. We may be able to extend this to other geographic areas, depending upon the availability and location of the stud.

Our live birth guarantee is the offering of a free stud service with the same stud if the dam does not have a viable cria.

Southern Alpacas Stud will offer a free return service if:
- a cria is not born (absorbed, retained CL etc) or
- cria is born dead (premature, still born, dystocia etc) or
- cria is born with congenital issues (very rare, vet evidence required)

Conditions apply. Every care has to be taken of the dam, and the cria, before and during birthing. It will be at our discretion whether we extend a free return service if a full-term, healthy, cria is born alive and dies in the next few days. We do expect due care to be taken of cria and dams.

The live cria guarantee will be honoured after a post mortem certificate signed by a vet confirms that the loss was not due to avoidable circumstances.

Free return stud services are to be taken as soon as possible after the female is ready for
re-mating, and should not be deferred to later seasons.

This return service is generally not transferable - it is for the same dam and the same sire.

In some instances, due to the planned future location/s of the stud, a live birth guarantee may be offered with a different stud.

Should the female have a health problem which means she is unable to retain her pregnancy, then another female may be able to be substituted, subject to mutual agreement.

Free returns and live birth guarantees cannot be undertaken in the event of the death of the female.

We are using solid and proven genetic lines as we believe in the proven heritability of good traits as displayed by their pedigree lines of  parents and ancestors, as well as siblings and progeny.

To improve the genetics of New Zealand's alpacas, we have imported studs from the well-known Australian Purrumbete Peruvian and USA accoyo bloodlines.


Their genetic improvement is proven — they endow their progeny with denser fleece, greater shear weight, and finer fibre.

Here we list the studs, where they come from, and our studs who bring these top genetics.Stud Booklet 0809
