Welcome to our
web-site for
Aquaviva Alpacas.
Our
History
Where We Are We are located in North Canterbury, New Zealand. We have built our new farm at Fernside, close to Rangiora. At Fernside, we have 10 acres and most of this is in paddock (although we shall keep a small garden as we also love gardening as our relaxation). We bought our first three breeding females in late 2002. Now our herd of 20 alpacas includes a National Champion and to date our animals have won numerous broad ribbons between them including seven Supreme Champions, the latest being Aquaviva Marcus who won the 2009 International Show in Holland.Our Goals Our aim is to breed high quality fawn alpacas. Our show success and feedback from other breeders regarding our herd makes our hard work over the past few years well worth the effort. We define high quality alpacas as having excellent conformation as well as fleece characteristics, including low micron, coverage extending to the extremities of the body, well-defined crimp, good shear weight, consistency through the fleece and the ability to hold these qualities for many years.
