About Our Alpacas
There is only one species of alpacas, but there are two fleece types – Suri and Huacaya – generally referred to as breeds. Our alpaca family are all Huacaya alpacas, bred for their amazing fluffy coats, which are sheared (painlessly) and made into a multitude of luxurious knit and woven products, including sweaters, socks, blankets, toys, and so much more.
Alpacas are considered exotic livestock, as they are still a somewhat rare farm animal. Originally from tne mountains of Peru, Bolivia and Chile, alpacas have been domesticated and bred and loved all over the world.
While they hate to be alone, Alpacas are known to be a very social species and prefer to live in herds. They can also be quite talkative – often they'll vocalize to both their herd and to people. However, they can be a little shy, and, like housecats, it's best if you let them choose to come to you, rather than chasing them down.
