The Alpaca Podcast for all things alpaca. Alpaca Tribe is for anyone who feels a connection with alpacas. It is for existing owners, everyone interested in keeping alpacas, people working with alpaca fleece or providing alpaca services, or those who are just alpaca mad.
With our guests, we will look at getting into keeping alpacas; making the most of the ones you have got (and enjoying it); ways to use the fleece, not just store it; opportunities to develop business activities relating to alpacas; and growing in your experience, wherever you are starting.
Each week we will be talking to people like you and to breeders, vets, producers and professionals.
The Alpaca Tribe Podcast is your place for wisdom, guidance and great stories about all things alpaca, from people who know because they have already done it.

A quiet start to the alpaca day
Welcome to the podcast for alpaca people!
In this episode, the air was still and the valley was quiet. The alpacas were waiting for breakfast. What a great start to the day.
Thanks for listening and I hope you enjoyed it.

It's not over until it is finished
Welcome to the podcast for alpaca people!
In this episode, I finish the update on this year's shearing and happenings in the valley. It is always nice to clean up and pack away the shearing equipment for another year. It went well, we had a good crop of fleece and almost all of the herd were in good shape. Satisfying.
Of course, another round of feeding and weather-watching follows straight after, but at least the heavy work is done for now.
Time to take a breath and smile - while spending some time with the alpacas.
Thanks for listening and I hope you enjoyed it.

Shearing alpacas is always different
Welcome to the podcast for alpaca people!
In this episode,
The weather shifted in the right direction, allowing us to start the shearing. A good crop of fleece - better than last year and the girls all seem to be in good shape, which is nice to see.
Keeping records is a good idea - keep it simple and make it easy. I use this app on my phone to dictate notes or capture photos and website links etc. If I could only have one app on my phone it would be this one. https://bear.app/

Walking with alpacas literally and metaphorically
Welcome to the podcast for alpaca people!
In this episode, walking with alpacas is a delight. Watch them move. Note the footfalls and the fluid motion. Watch them from many angles. It is a great reason to go spend time with your alpacas.
We had some visitors to come talk alpaca fibre and fashion and regeneration. Lovely.
