Safe Haven News & Events
~ Governor Jodi Rell has once again proclaimed National Alpaca Farm Days in Connecticut! The last weekend in September, alpaca farms all over the nation and state will be open to the public. Don't miss this opportunity to be a part of the second "National Alpaca Farm Days"!!!
~ On March 17th, 2008 - Safe Haven Farm and Silver Creek Alpacas agreed to co-ownership of one of the top females in the United States. SCA Peruvian Precious Angel is a seven time color champion and grand-daughter of the former Silver Creek "Misty Maiden" that sold for a record breaking amount in 2006. George and Sue Bailey owners of Silver Creek Alpacas believe that "Angel" is the best production from the Misty Maiden line. Her seven color champion placements back that statement up! Angel is bred to "Victory" with a fall 2008 cria due. Safe Haven & Silver Creek have agreed to off this first partner cria for sale on a first come - first serve basis. Victory is the son of El Nino and the grandson of "Victor". There is no doubt that this cria will be an truly amazing alpaca.
We are accepting reservations for "First Refusal" on this cria. Contact either Safe Haven or Silver Creek to reserve your right to view and offer to purchase this cria. This will be done in a first come, first serve basis. The higher on the list you are, the better your chance of owning this cria. You will receive notification of the birth and afforded and opportunity to see this cria. The cria will be born at Silver Creek Alpacas in Rootstown, Ohio.
~ The first cria of 2008 is here! March 8th, a full Peruvian, 1/2 Accoyo male cria was born. This little boy looks like he is going to be a future top herd sire! "Stone Cold", has awesome fiber qualities already. Next up, the long awaited combination of the Jericho and Silverado lines - Our Reserve Color Champion "Jasmine" has a cria due any day. This cria is another offspring of our Top Sire "Silver Shades of Peru 03". This gray on Gray breeding is bound to produce one of the top crias of the year. Safe Haven is accepting reservations for potential buyers to view and have a chance to purchase this cria.
~ Safe Haven Farm has recently added a "lease program" for the purchase of alpacas. This program allows new and current breeders the opportunity to treat our breeding stock like their own!
