The Capital Alpaca journey began in 2015 in Ireland, when Kim and Stuart Murray purchased their first seven alpacas. With no grand plan in place, it quickly became clear that alpacas were more than just pets, they were a passion. What started as a simple enjoyment of these unique and gentle animals soon grew into a lifelong commitment to breeding, learning, and sharing knowledge.

​

Today, Capital Alpaca is proudly run by the Murray family as a small, family-operated, British Alpaca Society registered alpaca breeding farm, nestled in the beautiful Cheshire countryside. As a family-run business, care, attention, and hands-on involvement are at the heart of everything we do. We breed our own alpacas on-site, focusing on excellent fleece quality, correct conformation, strong genetics, and calm, friendly temperaments.

​

We offer a range of services to support alpaca owners at every stage, including premium stud services using our carefully selected high-quality males, as well as alpacas for sale of both breeding and pet quality. Our breeding programme is designed to deliver consistent, reliable results while maintaining the welfare and long-term health of our animals as a top priority.

Education plays a vital role at Capital Alpaca. We provide educational courses for new alpaca owners and experienced breeders, helping ensure alpacas receive the highest standard of care. Our training reflects real-world knowledge and industry expertise, with Stuart Murray being a British Alpaca Society Apprentice Judge and a British Alpaca Society Affiliated Trainer. This allows us to offer practical, informative courses aligned with current best practice and BAS standards.

​

At Capital Alpaca, our philosophy remains true to our beginnings, a genuine love for alpacas, a commitment to responsible breeding, and a desire to support others on their alpaca journey. As a family, we take great pride in what we do and are dedicated to providing exceptional animals, expert guidance, and ongoing support to our clients.
