4th Annual BBFAI Breeder's Seminar recap

This year's seminar was a wonderful success.  Bluff Breeze Farm, Breakstone Ridge and Kinney Valley Alpacas hosted three guest speakers: Amanda VandenBosch, Jude Anderson and Brett Kaysen.  We banded together to help educate our alpaca neighbors about the ins and outs of breeding for the future.  Mill Street Tavern provided the facility and meals for Saturday's full day of education and Bluff Breeze Farm facilitated the event on Sunday.  The goal was to help our friends and customers maximize their herd's value through the use of selection tools to increase breeding potential and predictability.  We, as a new livestock industry, can do that by implementing tools already available in other livestock industries.
