Huacaya fleece

Huacaya fleece

Alpaca fleece comes in 22 different natural colours and animals will need to be sheared once a year if an huacaya or every two years if a suri; there are several shearers who travel the UK and most provide an excellent service, including teeth & toenail trimming and vaccinations if required – see if your chosen breeder can recommend one.
