alpacas: Re: [AlpacaTalk] Leasing out female alpacas

I am new to the Alpaca world, just a year now, but have been involved with purebred dogs for a long time. Although I have never leased a dog, I know that these type of things can be just about anything that the two parties involved agree to. I would strongly recommend it all put in writing, covering all bases. Include who is responsible for any expenses incurred whether it is vet care for mom and/or cria, if something happens to the female that is leased , how would that be handled. Would the owner of the female being leased be owed something if worse case scenerio.......she dies while on lease. I would just do your best to have all possible aspects covered in writing, signed by those involved and copies for both.

Hi Joyce:

How would this leasing work? Would you breed the female or would they

take care of that? Would the leaser get the fiber or would you? Would

you keep the animal or would the leaser? If you kept the animal would

you charge board?

We lease a gelding to some folk that are only interested in the fleece.

We keep possession of the animal and pay all of the upkeep. In the

spring they pick up the fleece and pay the leasing fees which are enough

to cover the price of the fleece. This works good for us and them also.

Since I have a larger herd of macho's I would e interested in leasing a

female at a reasonable price to produce crea. The only draw back I can

see is that the registration could be trouble some and here in Canada

the offspring would would have the females owner's farm name as a prefix

to their name.

I to would be interested in hearing other ideas on this subject.

By for now:

Wayne
