We thank you for your interest in the IAC. If you wish to contact to someone directly regarding any aspect of the IAC, please feel free to email bill@alpacas.com. Also, information about the StudMaster™ program is available from fred@alpacas.com.
All of us at Northwest Alpacas, along with all the StudMaster™ share owners, are excited about the enormous potential of the IAC and its community of breeders. 2007 promises to be a very exciting year. With this year’s submission of each animal’s shear information and the electronic return of the results from Yocom-McColl, IAC members will be in a unique position to take advantage of the EPD information for the first time. This is a significant step forward in the use of scientific methodology to reliably improve our alpaca herds. As an IAC member, you are in the forefront of break-through technology that enables you to accelerate the successful breeding of alpacas that are more productive and more profitable.
