Altiplano Alpacas LLC is a small ranching operation consisting of 9 gorgeous Huacaya alpacas (a Golden Retriever &  two cats).  By the end of October 07, we anticipated having our own ranch with our alpacas, but that didn't happen.  The real estate market and the economy crashed, so we still remain in our lovely home in Placitas, NM. But covenants preclude having alpacas, so we continue to agist our animals at Que Sera Alpacas, about 10 miles SE of Santa Fe.  

Because the costs of continuing to agist the herd have become prohibitive, we are selling off most of the herd this spring, 2010.  We will do this as soon as possible and hope you will find one or more of our beautiful alpacas the perfect addition to your own herd.  See our Sales pages for all sale animals.  They are all VERY nice animals who've won numerous ribbons at shows; one color champ, and many blues and reds, with a few whites and one or two yellows just to keep us humble and remind us again that we always need to buy the best, breed to the best, and produce the best if we hope to earn those top honors at shows.  

If you would like to visit us our animals and get your hands on a few of these beautiful babies, we would love to show them to you.  From Albuquerque or Santa Fe, follow I-25 north, about 5 miles past the last exit into Santa Fe, Old Pecos Rd, and get off at Exit 290 (to Clines Corners), which puts you onto Hwy. 285 South.  Head south about 5 miles to Jacinto Road, on the west side of the highway.  Follow Jacinto to the second driveway on the left; turn left (or south).  Que Sera Alpacas is at that corner, up on the hill to your right (west side).  Drive south a bit to the gate at the end of the fencing, and up towards the barn.  We'd love to show you our lovely alpacas and those of Que Sera.  If you're not in the market to buy, that's perfectly fine too.  We'd love to show you around anyway, and introduce you to all the alpacas of Altiplano and Que Sera.  Together we, and our friends across the road at AlpacaWorks, offer comprehensive services from several experienced breeders instead of only one.  We believe that our collective efforts are far greater than we could ever achieve alone, and the services available to customers is greatly benefited by our collaboration.
