What is Alpaca Agistment?<\/b><\/b><\/h2>\n

Agistment is the specialist care and boarding of alpacas on an experienced alpaca farm. Whether you need short-term accommodation while you're on holiday or preparing your own land, or you're looking for a long-term home for your animals, our agistment service provides a safe, secure and professionally managed environment where your alpacas will receive the highest standard of care.<\/p>\n

At Argentonnay Alpacas, we welcome both alpacas bred by us and those from other herds. To protect the health and welfare of all animals on the farm, every new arrival follows our strict biosecurity procedures, including a period in our dedicated quarantine paddock before joining the main herd. This allows us to offer a flexible agistment service while maintaining the highest standards of herd health.<\/p>\n

Whether your alpacas stay for a few weeks or several years, every animal receives individual care and attention.<\/p>\n
