Apple Mountain Alpacas

Apple Mountain Alpacas is a cattle breeder in Clarkesville, GA, serving Habersham County and the Appalachian foothills near Atlanta. With a focus on longevity and disease prevention, Jay Reeder carries out routine health screenings and follows national livestock association guidelines to maintain robust herds. The herd roams rotational pastures bordered by hardwood forests, and each animal receives daily human interaction to foster calm temperaments and easy handling.

Feeding relies on locally sourced hay and mineral supplements tailored to each animal’s stage of development, and water access is monitored around the clock. The farm combines time-honored pasture management with gentle handling to ensure cattle thrive in a low-stress environment. Owners often praise the clear communication about animal lineage and care practices, noting how replacement heifers settle quickly into breeding operations. Support materials include a basic pasture management guide that helps new owners integrate their cattle smoothly at farm or ranch settings.
