I have said before that the Internet and digital cameras make selling alpacas so much easier.
If you have a web site and a digital camera the suddenly your market is much bigger than all those folks within an hours drive of where you live.

We have had a flurry of enquiries recently about some of our alpacas, none of them from what you might call local breeders but all are well informed buyers and asked just the right questions before deciding to come visit and inspect the alpacas themselves.

The two essential pictures are the front end (bite) and the back end (testicles or vulva depending on sex). Then if there are any little quirks now is a good time to mention them not when the buyer arrives and his or her expectations are sky high.







If you are in this alpaca breeding business for the long haul then being open and honest about your alpaca pays. You will over time build up an excellent reputation for having those values and be rewarded many times over. Reputations are slow to build but fragile and can be destroyed in a day, so please take good care of yours.
