Search: "mcmcglmm heritability" to see some discussions using the mcmcglmm package. This package is discussed often on the mixed model list. You can also use the kinship package. It will take some time to get familiar with R. Work through a few of the examples for variance component models, and then I would suggest posting specific questions to the mixed model list.
