Stargazer Ranch Alpacas

Stargazer Ranch Alpacas breeds alpacas in Loveland, CO, in northern Colorado near Denver. John Heise and Cynthia Fronk follow established herd health protocols, including regular nutritional and veterinary checkups and fiber assessments. Their alpacas graze on open pasture with year-round access to sheltered barn stalls, and daily interactions help ensure calm temperaments.

A mix of indoor and outdoor facilities ensures alpacas remain comfortable through seasonal changes with access to shade and shelter. The ranch provides detailed fiber analysis and guidance for handspinners and weavers, with data on micron counts and staple length. By adhering to industry best practices, the ranch ensures consistency in fleece density and coloration typical of well-managed herds. This family-operated ranch also practices sustainable land management to support pasture health and animal welfare. With gentle handling from birth, these alpacas often adapt well to small-scale farms seeking quality fiber or companion animals.
