Cedric

The Wise Leader

Born in June 2019, Cedric is the calm and confident leader of the trio. With a thoughtful gaze and an air of quiet authority, he naturally takes charge and keeps the group grounded. He is intelligent, observant, and has a steady presence that the others look up to — especially Gus, who often seeks his guidance.

Huacaya Alpacas

Social Herd Animals

Alpacas are herd animals and thrive in groups. A single alpaca will not do well alone — they need their friends for companionship and emotional wellbeing (which is why our trio is perfect!).

No Upper Teeth

Like all alpacas, Huacaya’s lack upper front teeth, using a dental pad instead to shear off grass and hay.

Efficient Grazers

Alpacas have a three-compartment stomach and are very efficient at digesting rough forage, making them environmentally friendly grazers with a light footprint on pastureland.

Fluffy Fleece

Huacaya’s are known for their dense, crimped fleece that gives them a teddy bear-like appearance. Their fleece is soft, warm, and ideal for spinning into yarn. It’s often compared to cashmere in texture!

Distinct from Suri Alpacas

There are two breeds of alpaca: Huacaya and Suri. Huacayas have woolly, crimpy fiber that stands out from the body, while Suri’s have silky, dreadlock-like fleece that hangs down.
