National Alpaca Week ‘Open Day’ - May 13th, 2012 (Mother’s Day) - 10am to 3pm - Entry by Gold Coin Donation - get up close and personal to some friendly alpacas...

Sharalandan Park was established in 2009. As new breeders to the blossoming Central Queensland industry we love to talk about alpacas. Our aim is to breed suris and huacayas for their beautiful natural colours, from white through fawn, to brown, grey and black. The fleece of alpacas has been dedicated as “the fibre of the Gods”, and exhibits both warmth and luxury. With each generation, we hope to improve our herd genetics with selective breeding from top quality stud males.

Although we are still learning, we welcome visitors by appointment to come and see these beautiful and gentle animals, whether it is just to admire, or to purchase animals, or fleece for hand spinning, feel free to contact us!

 

News/Info

 

May 2011 - we have just returned from Gympie where we showed our alpaca's for the first time.  We went with 3 girls and came home with 3 ribbons and are very pleased. Temperance (our very first huacaya cria) gained a 3rd placing, and Patience (7mths) gained a second placing and then she topped it off with Reserve Champion.  Thanks goes to all the people who made our weekend special and helped us to learn the ropes and appreciate what goes into making a great show run smoothly.

August 2011 - We entered one fleece belonging to Temperence in the Royal Queensland Show and received a 2nd placing in her class.  The time it took to skirt her fleece and send it off was well worth it.
