About Us
Excellence Leading the New Generation
Red Granite Ranch is a family ran business, located on 400 acres in
Northern Colorado at an elevation of 7,500 feet. The ranch sits at the
base of the Rocky Mountains on rolling hills of prairie grassland. Our
views are extreme. We are approximately 32 miles north of Ft. Collins,
Colorado, and 33 miles southwest of Cheyenne, Wyoming. It is just a hop
skip and a jump from interstate 80 or Colorado Highway 287. Our family
invites you to visit and experience our wonderful lifestyle in the Rocky
Mountains.
Among the rolling hills of prairie grassland in
Northern Colorado, you’ll find the home of the finest alpacas in the
country. Red Granite Ranch has been breeding and selling elite seed
stock alpacas in Northern Colorado since 2009. With over 10 years of
trusted experience in the alpaca breeding industry. Here at Red Granite
Ranch, our mission is to build an elite herd of alpacas with every
breeding decision we make. Since opening in 2009, this pursuit has
allowed us to create an award-winning ranch with animals proven to be
competitive in the show ring. Our fleeces are dense, fine, and uniform,
so you can trust that our fleece products are the best in the business.
From
the very beginning, we began making purchases and breeding decisions
that would allow us to build a herd of elite alpacas. We wanted Alpacas
that would pass on to their offspring good health, superior
conformation, lasting fineness, density, and uniformity in their fleece.
We are preparing our herd not only to be competitive in the show ring
but profitable in the developing fiber market. Our goal is excellence
and herd advancement with every breeding decision we make. Our starting males Snowmass Matrix Rose, Snowmass Premonition, Crescent Moon's Shiftin Gears and Snowmass Reserved helped make those goals come true.
We have had the honor of being awarded the 2020 James G. King Industry Recognition Award. This award is given by the AOA Board of Directors to a person or persons who have given of themselves exceptionally and consistently toward the betterment of the alpaca industry. We have spent countless hours making sure our herd is healthy and perfecting the huacaya breed. Making sure our clients always get the best outcome when using our Herdsires is our main goal, as we love to see our clients blossom. Our hard work has paid off, and we will continue to bring the best to the table.
With having Herdsires in every color, every ranch/farm will have a standout, ones that produce the most top quality crias every breeding. For us it's Red Granites Val D Lsere & his sire Snowmass MR Sizlin Rose. They have taken our herd to the next level in fineness, handle, phenotype, density, and brightness, even bringing our ranch name out of the US and into other Countrys. Snowmass MR Sizlin Rose has two AOA National Dark Supreme Champion Crias as of 2021, and if you are counting, his crias have won 4 out of the 5 Dark Male AOA National Supreme Championships since adding them in 2016. He is also a 12X Get Of Sire winner! Red Granites Val D Lseres crias have also been top notch showers.
We provide seed stock for sale, agisting, as well as top of the line “Proven” Herdsires in every color, just give us a call and your next champion will be on its way.
