Rainbow Mountain Alpacas

Rainbow Mountain Alpacas are alpaca breeders in Punxsutawney, PA, serving Jefferson County and the Allegheny Plateau near Pittsburgh. They follow guidelines recommended by national alpaca associations, conduct routine health screenings, and maintain comprehensive breeding records that support robust genetics. On this family-run farm, alpacas graze on expansive pastures by day and rest in shaded shelters built for comfort during all seasons.

Gentle handling from an early age promotes calm temperaments and socialized herds accustomed to visitors. Each spring the flock is sheared, with fiber carefully skirted and graded to meet quality standards favored by local hand-spinners. Their commitment to pasture management and rotational grazing benefits both animal welfare and land sustainability. The Sheesleys share knowledge through community workshops and support small-scale fiber arts projects across the region. Visitors often remark on the farm’s tranquil atmosphere and the evident bond between the animals and the Sheesleys.
