Front Range Alpacas LLC

Since 1995, we have bred and sold huacayas at our 10-acre farm in Monument, Colorado, on top of Monument Hill overlooking the Air Force Academy. In 2010, we announced our planned retirement and began publicity to sell our herd of 83, including our 50% share in 3 well-known herdsires (to be sold after the females were gone).

As of January 2012, only 6 females remain to be sold (some of our best!), plus our share in the sires and 2 males that we own outright. After the summer breeding season, the males will be gone and our active participation in the alpaca business will be concluded. Even though we will not have alpacas, we plan to stay available to our customers by phone, email and personal farm visits. Several of our females were sold with future breedings in 2012 and we will fulfill that promise prior to shutting down the farm.

Our alpaca venture has been very successful, with many friends made. We would encourage any newcomers to become active in their local affiliate and AOBA, plus ARI if the opportunity arises. Lucy has served on both the ABR and ARI boards and as Chair of the AOBA Show committee.

Our Ultimate Retirement Sale has almost ended, with 82 alpacas sold in the past 18 months. Many breeders and newcomers have availed themselves of our widely diverse bloodlines and fabulous package prices. While we will not be operating an active farm after the 2012 breeding season, we remain attentive via email and phone to the needs of our buyers. Males will be in residence during the summer/fall 2012 only and selection is subject to sale.
