EP Cambridge has outstanding facilities both in Australia and the UK. The infrastructure of each of the properties has been specifically considered with Alpacas in mind. Each farm is set in countryside of breath taking beauty and exceptional grazing potential.
Our purpose built alpaca facility was completed in 2003 and comprises a trophy room, vet room, wool storage, reception/welcome area as well as offices and a boardroom for coffee and negotiations. This is a wonderful showpiece which our alpacas, staff and clients alike appreciate.
EP Cambridge has dedicated itself to this wonderful industry so are always finding ways to improve their herd as well as the facilities.
Each alpaca paddock has trees for shade, sheds for shelter and automatic water troughs. We substitute feed the animals with lucerne, oaten, clover and/or meadow hay through the year - all grown on company farms to ensure premium quality and no unwanted weeds. Special care is given to weaners and older alpacas with a pellet and chaff mixture. 24 hour care is maintained at all times to ensure the continual health and safety of all the animals on the property. Our Veterinarian resides on the same road as our stud so is only minutes away.
All paddocks link with a system of raceways leading to the central work area. All are pasture improved and are clearly separated into three main areas, MN3, MN2 status and Non-assessed. There are yards for mating and our ‘Hospital’ for our Embryo Transfer programmes, sick or injured alpacas. We have our own ultrasound machine so are able to offer the full service when using our stud sires.
