This day course provides a thorough grounding in alpaca knowledge and an understanding of their management. There will be practical hands-on training with the alpacas; also understanding fleece qualities and conformation. After a hot, home-cooked, two course lunch we explore the practical requirements of alpacas. The attendee will know whether alpacas are for them and also be able to recognise good conformation and a valuable fleece on any alpaca, anywhere in the country.
