About Clare
Limerick Alpaca Ranch
Welcome to
Clare Limerick Alpaca Ranch! The name of our ranch comes from the
marriage of Jan's family originating in County Clare, Ireland and
Richard's family tracing their roots to County Limerick.
We became
interested in Alpacas as a possibility for a retirement
income/lifestyle. After researching several other venues we choose
alpacas because of their charm, calm nature and ease of care. (We
are used to caring for horses.)
Crias at the Ranch
As you wind
down the drive to Clare Limerick Alpaca Ranch you will see Suris and
Huacayas playing together on ten acres surrounded by colorful flower
gardens. Having experience in the care of other forms of livestock
has given us a headstart over most new breeders. Our goal is to
raise high quality alpacas that excel in the show ring as well as in
fleece production. Our emphasis is on choosing the best sire for
improved conformation and fleece coverage . We strive to produce
show quality crias in blacks and grays.
We have a
sign over the door of our barn that captures the essence of Clare
Limerick Alpaca Ranch. It reads: "Wish it , Dream it, Do it!"
We are doing
it and you can too! Please call or stop by for a visit. The coffee
will be hot and the Guiness is always cold! |
