Pootcorners

Pootcorners is an alpaca breeder in Palmerston, ON in Wellington County and the Grand River valley near Guelph. Pootcorners follows recognized registry guidelines and ensures regular health screenings, genetic evaluations, and parasite management for its herd. Animals are raised in grass pastures with open shelters, receiving balanced nutrition supplemented by mineral blocks, and benefit from daily time for gentle handling and early halter training.

The farm maintains diverse bloodlines selected for consistent conformation and fiber uniformity. Young alpacas benefit from early socialization, allowing them to adapt confidently to new environments. Each breeding pair is chosen for temperament and fiber density, and pastures are managed through rotational grazing for sustainable land use. Regular visits from a local veterinarian ensure timely vaccinations and wellness exams across all seasons. With years of experience, Peter Poot offers knowledgeable insights on alpaca nutrition, handling techniques, and fleece upkeep.
