Tuscany Valley Alpacas is a family-owned alpaca farm located in rural northwest Alabama not far from Huntsville, Birmingham, Memphis, and Nashville. Our entire herd is our daily passion, and we are dedicated to raising the highest quality Huacaya alpacas. It will be well worth your drive to Hamilton, Alabama to visit our farm.
Mission Statement: Our Mission Statement is clear. We offer for sale alpacas of the highest quality at the most reasonable prices. After the sale we provide customer service which is unparalleled in the alpaca industry.
Foundation females who consistently give us outstanding crias are the building blocks of a superior alpaca breeding program. We base our breeding decisions on skin biopsy results, color, and conformation, always striving to produce a finer fleece and along with that the finest alpaca in the Southeast.
Herd sires supply the additional building blocks of a superior alpaca breeding program, and our machos are no exception. We use our own Jaguar, Earthshaker, and Black Hawk, and we also choose the best of the outside lineages to enhance the diversity of our breeding decisions.
Stud service is available to our multiple blue ribbon winner, Jaguar, and our handsome Earthshaker with an AFD of 20 microns at 3 years of age and a mere 22 microns at 4 years of age. Earthshaker now has 6 cria on the ground, all of whom inherited his beautiful head, conformation, and luxurious fiber. Jaguar also has several crias-all females to our knowledge! He throws a wide array of color despite being fawn! And recently joining our STUD ROW is the outstanding LMFI Black Hawk who is producing amazing crias. They must be seen because they are fabulous.
Breedings here at the farm may be either drive-bys or boarded, and we offer mobile breedings within a 200 mile radius.
Skin biopsy reports on most of our foundation females and herd sires are available.
Pet/companion/fiber animals, both males and females that do not meet our standards for breeding, are also available. If you are a spinner, knitter, or weaver, please inquire about our excellent prices on the animals. But if you prefer to enjoy the alpaca end-product even sooner, we have alpaca yarn spun from our animals for sale.
Package discounts allow us to mix and match animals based on your needs.
No-interest financing (25% down) for up to 4 years is a bonus we offer. And ALWAYS free boarding is available for newly purchased alpacas for up to 90 days in order to give you time to prepare to take your alpacas home to your farm.
Enjoy the websites, and call or email us to schedule a time to learn about the world's best livestock investment.

She places microchips and pulls blood for various reasons. Dr. Norm Evans oversees our herd health along with our local vet.
