Quality Begets Quality is a statistical fact taking into account both phenotype and genotype. A carefully calculated breeding program will help our alpaca industry get to a higher standard of type and production with an even greater return on investment. High quality fiber and production longevity are our keys to success.

We started the alpaca business in late 2003. Our first animals arrived on the farm in late 2004. We have been studying and visiting farms for over a year now and cannot believe how much we have learned. And we have only begun to skim the surface of all the info we need and want to learn.

Big Red Alpacas is a small farm carved out of the boney soil in northwestern Rhode Island. We believe that quality begets quality and are working our breeding program to that end. Our primary endeavor is to develop quality breeding animals with the conformation, and genetic breadth and diversity to carry on a long productive life well beyond their years in the show ring. The fleece characteristics of density, fineness, luster, crimp, consistency and yield are the results we are pursuing. These results may be attained through careful, patient, and selective breeding. We are targeting the production of >/=10# shear weight at </=22um AFD at 2-3 years of age.

We're breeding for healthy problem free animals with good mothering instincts, lots of milk and easy breed backs. We're expecting 5 more cria in 2006, so if you are looking for top quality show and breeding stock, please do not hesitate to call, we just may have that perfect boy or girl for your herd needs.

Kim is putting her Quality Engineering and Livestock Management skills into the endeavor, while Carolyn is in charge of birthing and infrastructure. Watch for this new little farm in the show rings soon!
