Females can be first bred in 14-18 months of age; they are induced ovulators and do not have a heat cycle, so they can be bred anytime after 3-4 weeks after giving previous birth. Alpaca ranching practices are sometimes demonstrated in a picture that will include a view of a baby or an adult alpaca.
