Debbie Ashley now President of Alpacas of Oklahoma
Big news! Debbie Ashley was re-elected to the Alpacas of Oklahoma Board and agreed to serve as President during the January 2022 quarterly meeting in Newcastle OK. She will be serving a 3 year term as the A-OK President.
Charles was asked in January, 2020 to serve as the Webmaster for the Alpacas of Oklahoma website, with ancillary duties for the Facebook Group Alpacas of Oklahoma and the Facebook Page Alpacas of Oklahoma.
As leaders in the Alpaca industry we know the importance of service, which includes working with and for our clients. The day after Debbie was chosen to serve the A-OK Association, she and Charles were outside doing herd health and providing vital mentoring to two of our clients who had driven almost 100 miles to hone their skills. Our byline, “Where we’re NUTS about our Alpacas” is not simply a state of mind, but describes our passion to be the best in our business.
~ Herd Health Days ~
A Great Way to Learn More About Alpacas and Their Care!
Aubrey Oaks Alpacas has a regularly monthly day where we halter up each Alpaca on the ranch to trim toenails, inspect teeth, weigh, give shots & document other monthly conditions.
-
These days are a time only for those that are seriously interested in Alpacas. So plan on seeing our Alpacas at Lavender Ridge, or you arrange a visit on another day to our ranch if you are curious or casually interested.
-
It is a great time to learn more about Alpacas so you can experience our lifestyle in-depth and hands-on.
-
Our Herd Health Days vary during the week. However, weather many times plays a relevant factor in our finalized date decisions.
-
We use a chute (shown above) to decrease the anxiety of our Alpacas. This also prevents any injury to them or a handler. Most of them need very little restraint and as a result, perform admirably.
-
We shear our Alpacas at our ranch without fail around the end of March of each year. Interested in being a helper on that day? It’s possible we could use the help… It can be a dirty job, and certainly not for the faint of heart! No Alpacas are harmed, but some do complain! Our shearer is a whiz as his average time per animal is under 5 minutes!
-
High school students and adults are welcome to attend. That is to say, thanks for understanding that children under the age of 13 would usually pose an undue distraction to the time and tasks at hand.
-
We can accept a limited number for each day, so please contact us and supply us with your particulars. Specifically — why you would like to join us, your Alpaca ownership plan, etc.
