Two Signature Herdsires offered in 2011 AO Stud Auction

Posted on January 16th 2011 | 0 Comments

Green Gable Alpacas is pleased to offer two of our Signature Herd Sires in the Stud Auction at the 10th Anniversary Alpaca Ontario show, April 9-11, 2011 in Orangeville, Ontario.

Americano's Keswick is a three time Champion, winning his third Championship with his third year fleece. This comes as no great surprise, as all of his full siblings who have been shown have earned Champion status. His sire, Victor's HemiAccoyo Americano is a Get of Sire Winner (3/8) and sire to many award winning offspring and his dam, Snowflake's Charm is a two time Dam's Progeny winner. Judge Dawn Brooker commented that breeders should look closely at Keswick as he is, 'exactly what you should be breeding for'. Keswick's fleece shows a very bold, fine, high frequency crimp with superior density. He sheared 10+ lbs in the 2010 shear.

Halter Training at GGA

Posted on December 13th 2010 | 0 Comments

Halter training of the 2010 crop of crias has begun at Green Gable Alpacas

This being our first year with crias, we were approaching halter training with anxiety and trepidation. Would we be sucessful? How difficult and how long would it take to earn the trust of our beautiful animals to take to a halter and being led? Well, we need not have worried. As promised by experienced alpaca breeders, halter training is remarkably easy on both handler and handlee. Of course, coaxing with a little grain softens the process .....
