Rainbows End Stud Stock Dispersal Sale A fter 25 years breeding alpacas it is time for a new direction in life. My journey started with my mum Kate, buying an alpaca and then being involved in showing. Together with her husband Robbie, they were very successful with their stud Blackgate Lodge Alpacas, breeding many champions. Whilst I shared their passion for alpacas I had a different preference for colour, they were mainly white. In 2005 I decided to ‘give back’ to the industry and thought I would give judging a go. The judges ‘school’ was not quite what I expected and was three days of being tested on our knowledge of alpacas and fleece – it was very stressful. Thankfully though, I was selected to begin my apprenticeship as a AAA judge. This took a little longer than expected as during this time I married and had two beautiful children. I have been judging shows in Australia and NZ ever since. My passion has always been coloured alpacas, especially the appaloosa and fancy’s - what I thought of as the underdogs of the alpaca industry. I campaigned for quite a length of time to have these stunning alpacas recognised and appreciated to the same extent as all other alpacas at shows. I still believe these animals are the starting point for many in the industry as almost all breeders began with a coloured alpaca and the more unusual the better. Today my family is my new passion and I feel a need to put all my energies into them. I want to do more and support them better as they grow into lovely young people. The animals today represent 25 years of trying to improve the coloured alpaca. All animals are presented in the best of health with drenching, toes, vaccinations, injections and teeth all attended to in August. I have retained the old, infirm and insane as these animals deserve a retirement and a peaceful end on land they are familiar with. Some animals are reserved, most are not. I have been purposefully keeping my breeding season to a limited number of weeks so animals that are not pregnant just did not conceive or were not ready to mate in my specific time frame. If you have any queries or questions prior to the auction please don’t hesitate to contact me. Most animals will have record books available to look at on the day which include, fleece tests, fleece weights, fleece samples, show results and breeding records for the years they have been on farm. I hope your purchase(s) will give you enormous pleasure for years to come. Yours sincerely, Joanne Ham 0428 440 604 njham1@bigpond.com.au ~ 4. ~
IT’S TIME ! For more fun…….. A rcadian Alpacas was begun in late 1994 and in the ensuing years we have had a lot of success and met some very good people. We consider ourselves fortunate to meet Jo Ham and her family and have become great friends. When Jo said she was dispersing her herd by auction, there was a moment of sadness quickly followed by the decision to include a group of our own animals. We have been selling down our numbers slowly and the opportunity to offer a bigger group by auction appealed. Although we’re not completely ceasing our breeding, we now have other exciting things to spend more of our time on ! Given the logistics of moving animals to Trawalla for the auction day, our numbers are limited and we have intentionally selected only proven stud males, all with good show histories, plus young, proven breeding females, most with female crias at foot. All the Arcadian animals have ‘reserved’ prices but genuine buyers can bid in confidence that the reserves are extremely realistic for the market. Prior to auction all the Arcadian animals offered will • have all their husbandry & injections up to date • be tested by faecal egg count for intestinal parasites & treated where necessary Potential buyers are encouraged to contact Denise directly, well prior to auction date, for more photos and information on individual lots. Photo pedigrees can be provided. • Arcadian Alpacas are Q Alpaca members : # 05/0091 NB : Blackgate Lodge Sunseeker now resides at Arcadian & is now Q Alpaca/MN1 equiv. • Arcadian Alpacas’ pic # SB 430 387 Visit our website, facebook page or phone to find out more details Denise Moysey Phone 08 8391 3270 denise@arcadian-alpacas.com.au www.arcadian-alpacas.com.au facebook @ Arcadian & Appaloosa Alpacas ~ 5. ~
