2014 Shearing Schedule

Thank you for checking our schedule and perhaps inviting us to shear for you this season.  We are expanding our territory, and starting WAY earlier than last year!  Please consider referring our services to other folks in your area, discounts to you are given for referrals.  Our prices remain the same as last year:

  • No "set-up" fee.
  • Llama shearing: $45 each, which includes toenail trimming.
  • Alpaca shearing: $35 each, which includes toenail trimming.
  • Quantity discounts available (call for quote).
  • Referral discounts given, or min. charge waived. 
  • Fighting teeth cutting: $10 per animal (usually only needs done once).
  • Incisor trimming: $10 per animal.
  • Assisting in Vaccinations and Worming: No charge as long as it does not slow us down.
  • Sorting by the ranch personnel beyond separation of blankets and seconds.
  • Collection and transport of fleeces to be washed at our mill: No charge. Kimknits Fiber Mill will bill you for it's services, and return freight.
We generally have a $100 minimum charge per stop, i.e. three alpaca sheared, or two llama with teeth work, etc.; this fee can be avoided if you can coordinate your shearing with a neighbor's. Animals should be contained and haltered, if possible. Extra charges for field capture.

Please check updates to our schedule often, if you don't see a scheduled stop that meets your needs. The sooner you reserve your time frame, the closer we can meet your schedule. If you have a need for our services but have missed our timeframe in your area, please contact us at llamapacaservices@gmail.com or (208) 280-0678.

Welcome to Llama-Paca Services

Welcome to Llama-Paca Services

We offer many services for your Llama and Alpaca family members at affordable prices.
These magnificent animals provide so many services to us that we feel they need to have the 
best and loving people to do their shearing, dental and foot care.
If you need or would like for us to come shear, do your dental and foot care
for your loved ones, give us a call or email us so we can get you on the schedule.

We are a competitively priced source for "Witches Brew," which many llama and alpaca owners swear by to cure a multitude of skin ailments. We also offer guard llamas for sale and from time to time other animals too.
If you are needing your female Llamas and Alpacas serviced we also offer Stud Services. We own some fabulous Argentine and Suri male llamas, and some Hemingway great grandsons in our alpaca herd.

In our endeavours of loving these breeds and  their fleece, we also offer processing of 
fibers. Right now we are ready for skirting, tumbling and washing, we are in the process of
putting in a mill and working with all kinds of fleece. 

If interested in our price lists for all the services we offer contact:
