Consultations
Every alpaca journey is different. Our consultation services are designed to provide support, reassurance, and an experienced perspective - whether you are starting out or looking to improve your existing herd management.
From preparing your property and planning your husbandry approach to understanding behaviour and developing handling skills, we offer practical guidance based on experience and current best practice. This helps owners build confidence and create positive outcomes for their alpaca.
Set Up Support
Looking to start your alpaca journey?
We offer an unbiased and experienced perspective as you prepare your property and plan for your herd.
From fields, fencing and shelters to herd size, nutrition and husbandry plans, we can help you create the right setup before your alpaca arrive.
Already own alpaca but looking for help?
We are always able to help you with the basics! We can answer your questions and fill any gaps in your knowledge, giving you strong foundations for your herd or business.
This can range from behaviour and handling techniques through to licensing and public engagement.
These sessions work well in tandem with our Remote Support Subscription. After a visit from us, we can keep progress going remotely to ensure you have all the reassurance and confidence to continue healthy husbandry.

Handling & Behaviour
Building confidence, improving cooperation, and creating a clear pathway to progress your alpaca’s handling skills.
Every alpaca learns differently. Our handling and behaviour consultations help owners understand their animals, identify challenges, and develop techniques suited to their individual needs.
We focus on building trust, improving communication, and creating positive experiences that support future handling.
Each consultation is tailored to the individual alpaca and follows achievable training steps - working at the animal’s pace rather than forcing progress.
During a session, we can help with:
-
Reviewing behaviour, handling history, and previous training
-
Checking halters and equipment for suitability
-
Assessing current handling skills and challenges
-
Building confidence around touch, restraint, and leading
-
Introducing or improving halter and lead training
-
Creating a personalised plan for continued progress
