Here At Peaceful Prairie Ranch we breed, board and sell alpacas.
ALPACA SALES
First and foremost, we raise and sell alpacas. Remember, we started out very small, and remain a 'small farm' by most standards. We know all of the alpacas here very well and pride ourselves on having healthy, happy alpacas available for purchase. You will know everything we do about them if you are interested in purchasing here. We only sell A.R.I. registered huacaya alpacas. Prior to any purchase we offer a veterinary exam and current BVD blood test. Our alpacas have been raised with excellent nutrition, which has definately resulted in minimal health issues.
BOARDING
In 2007 we expanded our facilities and pride ourselves on what visitors repeatedly tell us... that we have a 'nice atmosphere' for the alpacas. You can call it peaceful, or call it comfortable...but have your alpacas call it home! Heck, we even have toys for the 'pacas out in the pastures (and yes, they use them). We feed pure Orchard grass, and work hard to find the best hay available for the alpacas. Additionally we utilize supplemental feed as best suited for individual alpacas. Please read more about our facilities and services on our boarding services page.
BREEDING SERVICES
Choosing the right herdsire for your breeding decisions is one of the most important decisions we all make every year. Here at Peaceful Prairie Ranch we feel that only the very best males should be considered for breeding because we are breeding for genetic improvement.
We seek to blend the best traits and expect improvement in fiber characteristics for future generations of the alpaca. Conformational traits are also taken into consideration and we breed for all offspring to be 'show quality'. With exemplary ranches in South America shearing up to 20lbs. of fiber annually, we feel we have a ways to go here in the states... but we're trying to get there.
We offer some of the most well-known blood lines and various colors here in our herdsires. To add some excitement at the ranch, we purchased Cloud Dancer's Bolero, a 'loud' appaloosa (deemed 'loud' because his spots are not subtle!). Because he is such a unique alpaca, we have inquiries from across the United States on this boy! Please see our Stud Services page for more information on Bolero, Maverick, DotCom, Avalanche and Xavier.
