Own A High Quality Sire with No Payments & No Money Down.
A reality check for any breeder, the number of high quality males produced that cannot be used on your farm. An issue for smaller farms and breeders, the cost, transportation and timing for outside breeding from another farm or ranch.
The solution - own a herd sire and breed your females at home. Next issue, costs versus need; in many cases purchasing a herd sire can be daunting and simply not make the best business sense.
WIN - WIN: Safe Haven has a number of Herd Sires and Junior Herd Sires that we are not using in our breeding program. These are good sires that are worthy of breeding, but because of genetic redundancy cannot be utilized on our farm. You need a high quality male to produce high quality crias to further your business. The solution for us both is the Herd Sire Lease to Own Program.
No Money Down/No Payments- Safe Haven will provide a herd sire to selected breeders at no charge. The breeder provides transportation from Safe Haven Farm and provides full mortality insurance on the sire. The breeder agrees to assign a specific number of females to the sire each year for a set number of years; the female crias being co-owned by both Safe Haven and the Breeder. The breeder then raises the crias to an appropriate age and sells the crias on behalf of both farms. Each farm takes 50% of the proceeds after costs are deducted. At the end of the agreement, the breeder owns the herd sile. Want to keep one of the females for your future breeding program? No problem, simply pay Safe Haven 50% of the fair market value of the female. Every male alpaca produced from this program will be 100% owned by your farm.
Contact Steve Putney or Chris Martel for a list of available sires and further information.
