Our Male Alpacas

Ballintotas Alpacas maintains a small herd of male alpacas who possess gentle personalities and produce abundant fibre. We geld most of our males because they do not meet the rigorous standards of our breeding program. Gelding them allows us to mix and match the best personalities (even allowing some to hang out with the girls to bond with male crias) to make it a smooth transition when young males are moving to the 'boys' side'.
