Meet the adoptable alpacas

Each one has their own little personality, so choosing a favourite is all part of the fun.

Peanut

One of our two surprise babies of 2025, Peanut got his name from his gorgeous toasted-peanut colouring! He’s a sweet boy who can be a little shy when you first meet him, but once you get going on a walk, he has plenty to say. Peanut loves to hum and chatter away and will happily talk to you the whole way round!

Hercules

Hercules is a fun, confident boy with plenty of attitude and a cheeky personality! He loves spending time with his best friend Zeus, although he’s definitely the more mischievous of the pair. One of his favourite things is heading down to the shore, where he never needs much encouragement to paddle into the sea for a dip. Full of character and always keeping us entertained, life is never dull when Hercules is around!

Zeus

Sweet, calm and incredibly gentle, Zeus is a real softie. He loves his treats and spending time with his best friend, Hercules. But it’s his adorable wonky smile that really wins everyone over — you can’t help but fall in love with him!

Daisy

Daisy is a gentle, sweet-natured girl with a quiet little personality. She absolutely loves her food, but unlike some of the herd, she’s far too polite to be pushy! Calm and reserved, she’s a real sweetheart once you get to know her — and she especially loves heading down to the shore for a little paddle in the sea.

Pretzel

One of our two surprise babies of 2025, Pretzel arrived after our stud Yandu managed to sneak in with the girls the year before! She got her unusual name when, just a few hours old, she fell over and managed to get her neck and legs so tangled up that she looked just like a little pretzel. Now she’s a sweet, confident girl who loves going out on walks and strutting her stuff at shows!

Boudica

Boudi for short, she was named after the fearless Celtic queen and warrior thanks to her fighting spirit from birth! Our second cria born in 2024, Boudi has grown into a beautiful black girl with the longest eyelashes and the cutest little nose. Full of character and wonderfully expressive, she’s very easy to fall in love with.

Rose

Rose is a beautiful, calm and confident girl with the softest little nose. She loves cuddles and nose kisses and is always happy to be the centre of attention! Alongside Delilah, Rose is one of our little wedding stars and has attended a number of special days. The pair are naturals in front of the camera and always know how to strike the perfect pose.

Delilah

Delilah is our little show girl, earning Reserve Champion Fawn at her very first alpaca show — and boy does she know she’s pretty! She has quite the attitude, but it’s impossible not to laugh at her antics and fall in love with her. Delilah loves posing at weddings alongside her best friend Rose, and she’s never happier than when she’s paddling in the sea.

Luna

Luna is a very special girl who had a slightly rocky start to life. Born under the light of a full moon — very unusual for an alpaca, as they normally give birth during the day — she needed a little extra help in those first few days. Thankfully, Luna went from strength to strength and is now a happy, thriving and very friendly girl. She absolutely loves people… although food might just be her favourite thing of all!
