Loafing Sheds for Alpacas
Portable Loafing Shed for Alpacas
Alpacas may be resilient and remarkable animals, but they still need proper shelter in order to thrive in diverse climates. At Kauffman Structures, we understand that a well-designed loafing shed offers protection from extreme weather and predators and supports your alpacas’ well-being. Other key benefits include:
Heat Protection: Alpacas can struggle with high temperatures, making them vulnerable to heat stress. A well-placed loafing shed offers essential shade and airflow to help keep them cool and comfortable.
Cold Weather Care: Alpacas can tolerate cold, but wind and dampness can cause health issues. A dry, draft-free shed keeps them protected.

What are the features of Loafing Sheds For Alpacas?
Custom Sizing
Every farm is different, and so are your space needs. You might be caring for just a few alpacas or managing a growing herd; either way, we have a shed size that fits. We offer compact sheds for small spaces and larger ones with room for feeding areas or cria pens. No matter your setup, we’ll help you build the right shelter.
Portable
Flexibility is key on a working farm. That’s why our alpaca loafing sheds are designed to be portable. Easily move your shed between paddocks, rotate grazing areas, or adjust to changing herd sizes without the hassle of permanent construction. Portability gives you the freedom to evolve your layout as your needs grow.
Metal Exterior
Built to withstand the elements and alpaca curiosity. Our loafing sheds feature a tough, low-maintenance metal exterior that stands up to sun, wind, rain, and snow. Resistant to chewing and kicking, the metal siding also makes cleanup a breeze and provides long-term protection without frequent repairs or repainting.
How can I get my own Loafing Shed Livestock Shelter?
1. PRIORITIZE
Identify what you’d like your shed to do for you.
- What do you want to store?
- How do you want to access it?
- What kind of “look” do you want?
Think carefully about your objectives before you purchase your building.
2. PURCHASE
Review your options and make your choice.
- To choose your shed, consider which size and style will best fit your needs, as well as how each style will fit into your location.
- When you’re ready to order, first choose your colors, then any add-on options.
- Send us a security deposit to place your order. You can choose either a cash sale, or a convenient rent to own contract.
3. PREPARE
Get ready to land a beautiful backyard.
- We recommend a gravel base to set the shed on. If this is not a good option for you, we are happy to offer you some more ideas and options.
- Look for any low hanging wires or tree branches that will be in the way of getting the shed to the desired location.
- We encourage you to do any necessary tree trimming prior to delivery of your structure.
WHAT CUSTOMERS SAY OUR LOAFING SHED
Horses have a sturdy, safe structure to shelter from the Iowa weather
Curtis made the purchase of our horse shelter so easy! He worked with us and made the customizations we needed, as well as coordinating the build and delivery around our schedule as we were in the process of moving. Our little barn was built, delivered, and installed exactly as promised. Everyone who sees it comments on how well-built it is compared to other companies. Our horses have a sturdy, safe structure to shelter from the Iowa weather, and I can keep their grain, a couple of days’ worth of hay, and my tack and supplies in the larger, customized tack room we selected. It was easy to install electrical and a wireless camera in the building as well. We couldn’t be happier and highly recommend Kauffman Structures.
