    Help me decide a prefix for future alpaca stud plz!

    So I have purchased my first two female alpaca's both pregnant. I will be joining the Australian Alpaca Association and want to register their babies under my prefix. Only problem is I don't know what to call it and have no ideas and nothing sentimental to use. Maybe something with Rose, Silver or Hill in it but I can't think of anything that would suit a stud name. Any one have any suggestions or tips to choosing a prefix suitable for alpaca's?

    Does your farm have a name? You could use that.
    Maybe something based on the names of your foundation stock - what are your new girls' names?

    Thank you for your reply. Our farm has a dumb name. Its Glenside. Maybe I could use Sunnyside or Sonnyside Alpaca's! My plan eventually once I have bred some lovely females is to have a small stud and I will start showing next year if I can purchase a show quality lady and or have one of the babies to be of show quality. Just trying to think of a name before I join the AAA and need to register my unborn cria's. I also thought of "Luseal". Not really sure where it came from. My ladies are call Cinderella (she has a longer stud name) and Lucy who also has a longer stud name.

    Lucella? Lucerella?

    Glenn is a word for valley - so a name with Valley in it would be about your farm. You could call it Valley Side which would have pretty much the same meaning as Glenside but work better in Australian English.

    What about Silver-Rose Alpacas?
