About alpacas Shaqiri
Shaqiri is the ultimate foundation alpaca for anyone looking to start their own herd! An incredibly reliable and proven mum, she has delivered six healthy female crias without assistance, always providing plenty of milk. If you want a strong matriarch to build your herd, Shaqiri is the perfect choice. You can see her with baby Marshmallow (not included in the sale) on the 2nd photo.
On the 9th of July 2025 she’s been mated to Redens Burberry, a stunning black stud who’s won numerous black classes, backed up by multiple Reserve Championships! We’re very excited to see the result of this exciting mating!
She’s a feisty leader among alpacas – especially when food is involved – but remains gentle and entertaining with people, making her a joy to hand-feed. Her offspring all have a calm temperament and have gone on to join our event team, proving just how trainable her line is.
Born in 2016, Shaqiri boasts a stunning chocolate brown fleece, the beauty of which you can see in the attached images of past handmade products (not included in the sale, but a testament to her beautiful fibre). She’s registered with the British Alpaca Society, and her full pedigree is included.
Whether you’re looking for a proven mum, a herd leader, or a fleece producer, Shaqiri is a rare opportunity to add something special to your herd.

Terms & conditions for the remote ownership scheme
- The standard care of your alpaca is included and we’ll look after your alpaca like our own. This includes feed, Water, Vitamins, Vaccinations, bi-annual worm count and any required wormer if we have it in stock ourselves.
- A visit for 1 person per owned alpaca to attend our Remote Owner Day every other month is included. Additional people can attend for £23.
- You can choose to breed your alpacas with studs from pre-approved farms. We don’t charge extra to facilitate this if you use the same studs as we do for our own animals. You’d pay the stud fee direct to the stud owner.
- You agree to give us veto rights when it comes to mating an alpaca or moving them away from our farm. We’ll only reasonably use this to ensure the welfare of your alpacas. E.g. we wouldn’t allow matings if the female is not ready for it, and wouldn’t allow alpacas to be taken away from the farm if their destination is not appropriate (e.g. 1 acre minimum suitable grazing with no poisonous plants, shelter in place, sufficient knowledge to look after them).
- We don’t charge remote ownership fees for your baby alpacas during the first 6 months, when they’ll be with mom. After 6 months we’ll charge our standard fee.
- Any male alpacas can only stay with us for 6 months as we don’t have a male herd. You could take them into your care after that period, sell them or ask our help to sell them.
- Only alpacas purchased from us, or offspring of them are eligible for this scheme.
- You truly own your alpacas and could sell them with this agreement being transferred to the new owner.
- Minor ad-hoc treatment of your alpaca by us is not charged for. If your alpaca needs treatment from a vet then we will discuss this prior to treatment with you where possible (eg not time sensitive). In an emergency situation, decisions on treatment will be delegated to is, to act in the best interest of your alpaca. The vet bill will be your responsibility and will be paid within 7 days of demand. We will always provide a copy of the original vet invoice.
- The cost for the remote ownership is £100 per month, paid a month in advance. To ensure we can keep looking after the animals, the cost of the remote ownership will increase annually (from the date of purchase of your animal or it’s heritage if you bred it from a purchased animal) with the Consumer Price Index (CPI).
- We’ll let you know if you’re behind on your payment but if payment is more than 4 months late and we have sent out reasonable reminders then as per this agreement the alpacas are sold back to us at a price of £400, which will then pay for the unpaid 4 months of care.
- You have a 1 month notice period to cancel this agreement, while we would give you 6 months (which we would only do under exceptional circumstances). Please note that you can only cancel this agreement if you’re moving the alpacas to a suitable new home (as per the veto clause above for their welfare).
