· Alpacas are clean, safe, quiet, intelligent and disease resistant.  They have a charismatic manner, can be raised on small acreage or agisted (boarded) indefinitely on a breeding farm. 

· Alpacas produce one of the world's finest and most luxurious natural fibers -- soft as cashmere and lighter, stronger and four times warmer than wool.  It comes in more colors than any other fiber producing animal -- 22 basic colors with many variations and blends.  Alpaca fiber is in demand around the world by spinners, weavers and the commercial textile industry. 

· Alpacas do not have to be harmed to be profitable. 

· Having been domesticated for more than 5,000 years, alpacas are one of Mother Nature’s favorite farm animals -- they are sensitive to their environment in every respect. 

· There are very attractive tax advantages to leasing, agisting (boarding) your alpacas on a breeding farm or raising them at your own ranch -- plus, alpacas can be fully insured.

·  Raising alpacas can provide both income and pleasure -- it is a rewarding experience for families with children and also for couples approaching retirement who want to blend business with a peaceful, stress-free lifestyle.

· ALPACAS ARE EASY TO AFFORD...  EASY TO TAKE CARE OF... A PLEASURE TO OWN!
