ALPACAS
MAGAZINE
Dear Alpaca Enthusiast,
Along with Editor Deb Hill, we are once again delighted to present the Herdsire edition of
Alpacas Magazine,
published by the Alpaca Owners and Breeders Association (AOBA). In this
2013 version of our annual issue, you will find some of the best herdsires available in our industry
today, standing at some of our premier farms. Whether you are shopping for a mate for one of your
beautiful female alpacas, or simply enjoy looking at the pictures of these incredible males, we are
certain you will enjoy this issue.
Even if you aren’t ready to purchase a herdsire breeding, we are certain you will enjoy browsing
through the pages of this issue. Please consider visiting some of the farms represented in this issue
of the magazine. The alpaca industry is comprised of some of the most friendly and remarkable people
you will find anywhere in the world!
If you’d like to meet many of our wonderful members in person and see some of the most beautiful
alpacas in the world, consider joining us at the 2013 Annual Conference of the Alpaca Owners and
Breeders Association. Our conference features an outstanding alpaca show with animals from all over
the U.S. and Canada, the largest alpaca fleece show in the world, numerous exhibits, representatives
and alpacas from hundreds of member farms, vendors (for a little early Christmas shopping?) and
so much more! This year the conference will be held at the National Livestock Complex in Denver,
Colorado, on May 18 and 19, 2013. The event, as always, is open to the public!
Please visit our website for more information about alpacas, fiber, products, services, member farms
and so much more at

Sincerely,
Libby Forstner, Board President
