Owners of female alpacas can have their newborn crias and mothers on farm while the females are remated – by choosing a mobile stud service. Alpacas load easily once halter trained (into a trailer or purpose built van in our case!) and sit (cush) when travelling, making the process of getting your females remated relatively stress free. For many people, this is preferable to having to send the mother and cria for up to three months after giving birth.
All of our stud males are halter trained and used to travelling, which is helpful if you have no transport of your own. Typically the male would need to visit approximately every two weeks – until the female is rejecting (spitting off). We should point out that the loading pictures are of Charlie Brown who is not a stud male but had hoped to be!
For those with their own transport, by bringing females to us, the stud fees would work out cheaper (drive-by mating)
Mobile stud services would be free of travel charge for delivery or collection within a ten mile radius of Spring Farm, East Sussex. This applies up to a maximum of three trips, thereafter a charge would apply based on mileage. Please contact us for more information.
