Why Alpacas?

We began raising alpacas in 1998, after searching for a grazing animal that would not later appear on the dinner table. Once we met the clean, gentle alpaca, we knew we had found what we needed (pigmy goats did not quite do it!). Alpacas are a way of life that is peaceful and rewarding, as well as being an excellent investment opportunity.

Our Breeding

SANDHILL ALPACAS is committed to breeding only ARI registered huacaya alpacas of quality. Our alpacas were chosen for their excellent fiber characteristics, conformation and good temperament. Our crias are proof of the success of our program.

We have alpacas for sale - gentle youngsters, as well as a few bred females and potential herdsires. Ask us about package discounts. We also have yarn and fiber for sale and have recently opened a products store selling scarves, hats, socks, gloves, and other fine alpaca products. We offer breeding to our herdsires,  and our continuing commitment to give complete support to our customers and new owners. Support includes advice on animal health, selection and breeding, herd management, physical layout, and pasture management.

We welcome visitors to SANDHILL ALPACAS, conveniently located just 1.5 miles from I-70 at Exit 62, historic New Market, the "Antiques Capital of Maryland."  Give us a call at 301-865-3552.
