new to alpacas or are curious as to what's up in our neck of the
woods, we hope you find our
website informative and entertaining. Feel free to drop us a line to

Researching the alpaca
industry is not an easy task. It involves weeding through so
many perspectives. Are you going to raise them as a business or hobby?
What about color? Show or no-show? Suri or Huacaya? Your final
decision would be so much easier if only you knew what we've
learned over the past 12 years. We have information on our web site that we think could be helpful in your decision making
process. New articles about why we raise alpacas, what we do
with them and why they cost what they do can be located in our
Alpaca Research
section. Tired of reading and research? Need some "Alpaca
Group Therapy"? ... Check out
Weekend On
The Ranch
My wife, Cindy, and I have been raising alpacas since 1998 and
now have over 70 alpacas that we care for. Our breeding program
has been very successful in producing "Vicuna Fine", alpaca
fleece (14 to 18 micron) and show winning alpacas. Our foundation stock is not
only a representation of the best bloodlines available in North
America, but also only those particular individuals which have
been proven to produce top quality offspring.
Perplexed
about prices? Being able to determine value is
just a matter of knowing what to look for. Invest a little
bit of time with us on The Ranch,
and you will know what to look for in quality breeding stock,
determine what is the earning potential of an particular animal
as well as how to care for them.
Caring for alpacas is not difficult. Even if you are new to
livestock entirely, we can provide the education, support and
systems to help with your success.
