Heather Glen Alpacas

Heather Glen Alpacas, alpacas, Prescott Valley, AZ, is located in Yavapai County and the Verde Valley near Phoenix. Dean Ross has been raising alpacas for years and maintains registration with the Alpaca Owners Association and routine health testing protocols.

The herd grazes year-round on open pasture and receives daily handling to encourage gentle temperaments and social confidence. Focus on quality fleece guides selection for density and uniformity, while barn and pasture rotations support animal well-being. Animals live in a mixed-age herd, ensuring social learning opportunities during feeding and turnout each day.

In winter months, barns are equipped with straw bedding and heated water systems to keep alpacas comfortable through cooler nights. The farm’s emphasis on transparency and service has earned consistent praise in community forums. Local fiber crafters note the luster and fine micron counts achieved in the herd’s fleece.
