All animals deserve to be in expert and loving hands.
Alpacas cannot be compared to regional animals. They have special needs that we as owners and breeders must meet. You should not find out about these on your own and expose the animals to unnecessary danger.
With a seminar, you will gain specialist knowledge and develop a feeling for the animals and their care. You can also make initial contact with other owners or breeders.

Advice on keeping alpacas
The decision to get alpacas is a big and life-changing decision. At the beginning you have a lot of questions and are unsure whether your ideas match reality. That's why we offer a detailed consultation for you and your individual plans.
-
Basics
This seminar is essential if you are planning to buy alpacas. It covers the keeping and care of alpacas, the requirements for the stable and the pastures, legal principles, feeding, animal health, and the daily handling of the camelids.
-
Breeding and reproduction
In this course we will discuss all aspects of breeding in detail. You will learn what is important during pregnancy and how you can support your mare during birth. You will also be prepared for what new things you can expect with a foal and what you should definitely pay attention to when raising it.
-
Practical training
The most important thing we teach our animals is to stand still when we want to cut their nails or touch their head for certain measures (e.g. giving them eye drops). For this it is important that your animals trust you. I would be happy to show you how to build this trust.

Practical training
The correct handling of flight and distance animals
Would you like to keep alpacas or llamas and learn more about handling the animals and gain some practical experience beforehand? Perhaps you already have alpacas and would like to expand your knowledge of handling and training camelids? Then practical training is just right for you!
Alpacas and llamas are flight and distance animals , so there is a lot to consider when handling and training them! If you want calm and relaxed animals that enjoy training and build a trusting relationship with you, we would be happy to show you how it's done.
NO catching and chasing to halter the alpaca! NO kicking, jumping and spitting - from the animal to cut its nails! There are other ways and you will be amazed at how quickly your alpacas or llamas progress.
