What Makes Us So Different?
First, we have chosen to purchase, breed and sell alpacas with strong champion genetics. Since gestation is 11-12 months long, we feel that inferior animals are time consuming to improve. We will continue to seek out and purchase champion bloodlines to increase the level of quality. Educated alpaca breeders know that this level continues to rise and we plan to be there too. Our current stock
awaits your inspection!
Second, our alpacas enjoy high elevations found along the Blue Ridge
Parkway in the "Highlands of Va." Our farm is nestled along a ridge with
beautiful distant mountain views. A steady breeze keeps the alpacas
calm, content, and eager to graze on 60 acres of open pastures. Humidity
and summer temperatures are low plus cold winters contribute to the
superb health of the herd.
Experts agree that forage is key to these animals. Our fields and hay are tested. Our hay comes from sources that supply local Olympic
horse farms so we know what is being consumed. Protein levels are monitored and adjusted accordingly if needed.
Genetics and Environment are the Conductors of Life
Jr. Herdsires
These boys will soon take a place
in our breeding program. We illustrate them here to show what our
foundation dams have and can
produce. Their fleece displays excellent bundling, staple length,
density and a fine handle we all look for in a
herdsire. Histograms
are available for your review. Click here to see some fine examples of
champion accoyo genetics.
Foundation Dams
The backbone of any breeding program
focuses on a consistent phenotype. Our white dams are of Peruvian
lineage. The fawn girls are from Chilean and Peruvian descent. All
dams are bred to either winners in the show ring or famous
herdsires
know for their reproductive winners. We, at Atlantic Breeze Alpacas,
are dedicated to raising the genetic pool to the highest levels.
