Scheduling is in progress for the 2012 Shearing season
The Results are in!!! ![]() Biosecure Alpaca Shearing Ltd. Shear Relief LLC, Durer Shearing and BENeficial Shearing invite you to join us for Shearing Season 2012! Feel free to call with any questions or concerns: (330)-378-5150 ![]() At ShearingAlpaca.com, our goal is to make you happy. Shearing Day is a necessary part of every alpaca breeders year, but it need not be exhausting or stressful. ShearingAlpaca.com is setting the standard in alpaca shearing across the country. The first to bring biosecurity to the field, John, Brian, Micah, Ben and their crews, disinfect between farms and arrive at your farm with clean boots and equipment
Alpacas
need to be dry, penned and accessible when our crew arrives.
Our trained crew members do all of the major handling for you, reducing the risk of injury to the animals as well as their owners. Not only will your blankets be taken off in one piece w/minimal second cuts, but your animals will cleaned up as well, no alpaca left behind... ![]() ![]() We have 4 four man crews this year, meaning we provide one shearer and 3 helpers. Our guys bring their own restraints and mats which are disinfected between farms. In most cases we will run two shearing stations. We will also have a 2 man crew available for small farms. Owners should be prepared to take care of their fiber, and should enlist all the help they will need for bagging and sorting fleece as well as help for cleanup. Fiber Sorting crews have worked with us before, but if they are new to sorting, please let us know so we can allow additional time on scene. We also would appreciate knowing if there are more than a few "special" hairdos on the agenda. Our standard show quality cuts look like the picture below: Prices:Huacaya and Suri Alpaca: Standard Show Quality Cut: $30 per head. Llama: Full Body Cut: $30 per head Basic Show Cut: $35 per head Basic Barrel: $25 per head If you have more than 30 animals at one location, the price is $25 per head, complementary toenail trim included. We do belly cuts for $15 and yes, we do cria tipping too :-) There is a $50 set up feeper farm. Call for more info. The guys enjoy shearing and will shear large groups of alpaca, llamas, and the occasional sheep. (Most sheep are done outside of the alpaca shearing season, so we don't have to mix equipment.) We really don't mind travelling, but we prefer to group you with others in your area. We do charge a $50 set up fee per farm. This helps to cover some of our travel and lodging expenses and makes it more likely that we will come out to your area if there are several farms willing to use us. Ask about our money saving options. We do have references :-) For more information or to schedule an appointment for Show Quality Shearing at ShearingAlpaca.com call 330-378-5150 or email by clicking here |
