RANCH MISSION STATEMENT:
C & J Alpaca Ranch is continuously striving to produce Beautiful, Healthy Alpacas with Exceptional fleece qualities, good conformation & choices of color.
"During this time of economic uncertainty, we feel the alpaca industry will need to also buckle down and hold steady. As our part in supporting the industry we are lowering our breeding fees (not lower quality but lower fees) and starting a mobile breeding service. We have grown quite fast and acquired some good quality animals and would like to share this with the rest of the industry."
Take a look good look through our website, and see if there is something or someone you have been looking for but not quite able to get because of pricing (you've got quite an assortment to choose from, and the price is right).
RANCH DESCRIPTION:
Originating in La Quinta, CA in 2006 with two young ladies; we have matured and grown quite a lot.
The small farm in Fort Collins, CO has progressed nicely, and we are now one of the largest ranches in Colorado.The barn has now been completed and ready for full occupancy. It's a good thing because as of now we have acquired some of the most sort after (and recognized) bloodlines in the country.
The stud muffin "Konala" (a 2nd Gen. StudMaster from Glacial Storm) is well on his way to notoriety and possibly following in dad's (Glacial Storm) and Grand-dad's (PPPeruvian Augusto) paw prints.
Move over Stud Muffin, there's a new sheriff in town. Accoyo Prince Valiant (the new sheriff) is a product of StudMaster Paul Revere, of the famed Don Julio Barreda's B-line accoyos. His grandfather is the one and only 6Peruvian Accoyo Tsunami. This guy looks like he has the potential for stardom. Watch out when The Prince gets on the loose (starts breeding).
Since the addition of Prince Valiant, we have added a Royal Fawn Grandson - Peruvian Rocketman (LF); A 3/4 Accoyo out of Victor's Valedar - Peruvian Vangogh. These boys have numerous crias on the ground, and can add diversity to your herd .
Additionally we have just purchased an El Nino son, Accoyo Rubicon (just over 2 yr. old). The Herdsire of this stunning male (PCA ACCOYO EL NINO) is no longer with us, but you can still have his genetics. This male can help you get El Nino's royal championship bloodline added to your herd. Make your decisions to schedule a springtime breeding in early 2011 with this handsome young stud.
Have a look at Mile High's Denver Diamond Rio, a Accoyo Peruvian Legacy 6014 G-Son, and RDWD's Stinger-B out of Day Star's Peruvian B16 (from the Don Quijote line). Everything's Peruvian Alvarado - a PHA Accoyo Bentley(15.1 micron AFD fiber) son, (EL NINO G-Son) is growing right along , and will take on breeding chores this spring 2011. We also have added Bentwood's Tundra from the the Accoyo Leon line which looks really good.
We have also added Hemingway's Excalibur to our herdsire row. He is fine like his dad and very, very dense white with a large fawn spot on hip.
Topping all this off is the addition of RDWD's Everest (photos on right), Full brother to 7X champion "Chase Tavern Juggernaut" out of SA Peruvian Magnito & Chase Tavern Ivanna Gold (4Peruvian Altiplano Gold). If these guys are true to their bloodlines,and anything like their parents we are in for a treat. Take a moment to consider the possibilities of using some of these guys in your herds.
Now that all the dust has settled, let me introduce our newest female Eve. She is a dark Fawn, 1/2 accoyo out of Excalibur (a StudMaster Hemingway G171 son) and her mother's sire is PPeruvian Vengador G4568 - wow! She is going to be very good for our ranch and we expect great ciras from her. She is definitely one to watch. Great news, Eve has delivered three girls in a row (we like that).
Since the addition of Eve, we have to let you in on a little secret. We have also purchased another female, named Miss Kringle. Noelle is here, this girl will take your breath away. Starting with a micron count of 14.3; 4.5; 31.5; %o>30 1.2 (I know it's her baby fleece, and nothing to get excited about but it's a good starting point), and crimp forever.
Take a moment to see what bloodlines we have acquired so far. We believe we're headed in the right direction. Don't take anyone else' word for it, stop by and check us out for yourself.

I think we are off to a good start in trying to find the "Ideal Alpaca".
We are started with a 2 stall barn on four acres. Comeback to visit us and see how fast our ranch grows and the champions we produce.
It is truly an exciting time when you can reap the benefits of your labors.
We have a very nice boy from "The Master's Touch", who was bred to Brilliance OF Peru S855 from Alpacas Of America. Brilliance's sire Peruvian Ion sold 1/2 interest for around $600K. Brilliance himself sold for a few hundred thousand dollar ($600,000). We are very pleased with
the present she has given us. A handsome beige son with "fiber to die for". Brilliance Of Peru's Nuggett is something special, as he will be strutting his stuff in this spring's (2011) shows.
Stay tuned to see what's happening here at C & J Alpaca Ranch, LLC.
