Pucara Alpacas | Alpaca Farm | Raising Alpacas for sale

We welcome all alpaca enthusiasts to our educational series. Education in livestock breeding is power. If you are new, an existing alpaca breeder, just starting your alpaca ranch, being confounded by alpaca sales or need to lift your breeding and alpaca show skills perhaps we can help.

"Australia's loss is Oregon's gain! We attended Alan and Jude's seminar this past weekend and were more than pleased with all that we learned. Even after being in the alpaca business for several years, the information that we gained has had an immediate impact on our day-to-day business -- everything from feeding to assessing fiber to being more critical in judging our own herd without the "barn blind" syndrome. Thank you, Jude and Alan, for being great instructors and wonderful hosts!"

" Thankyou again for one of the most memorable times of my life. The seminar has forever changed how we will run our alpaca business and our breeding program. I only wish I had done this ten years ago....

I mean I could go on for a bit about how valuable our weekend at Pucara was to me. Can’t thank you enough. I feel better every day about our farm and our alpaca industry – now that I have new eyes to see it all through. "
