I have just updated our sales lists this evening and have added Octavius and Nautilus.
I must admit that Octavius is not looking his best in this photograph - I shall have to concede that the farm labourer who is swannng around in the Alps is a better photographer than me! It would also help if Octavius did not look quite so grubby!
What I would say is that this is a great opportunity to get some fantastic genetics into your herd at a very reasonable price. Perhaps your preference is for coloured alpacas - but remember his sire is fawn and grand sire and grand dam are also fawn and brown, so I would not hesitate to put him over your coloured girls. This is the way to get some better fleece quality into your coloured herd.
Nautilus is a lovely boy with a gentle temperament, but a character for all that. He is used to being handled by many different people attending our various alpaca courses. He would make a great pet.
We have also got a dark brown weanling called Fallowfield Sylvester, who is a brother to Nautilus, and who will be added to the sales list in the next few days.
