Welcome to Stirling Ridge Alpacas
If you don't own a farm, but really wish you could own alpacas, we've figured out a solution! Try our RENT-A-WOMB program! Kenzie was our first girl used in the rent-a-womb program and her cria is now owned by David & Lauren. They chose Kenzie to breed and paid a monthly fee while she was pregnant. They got her bred to a ribbon-winning stud from a local farm (or you can choose from our own studs too). You'll get a major discount on breeding fees to our studs (see our new boy Bradford!) and "renting" one of our females in the program. We'll get the female bred, transport her to WSU for pregnancy check ultrasounds, care for her until she births, and get the cria checked out at WSU. YOU can be involved every step of the way. Call for more details. Total cost can be under $1000 for a stellar cria!
Herdsires? We have great neighboring farms with beautiful herdsires to use for our girls. We just bought Bradford for our farm and also have our own up and coming boy, Locksley, who will make a good match—use our boys and get a significant discount!
Located in Moscow, Idaho, our small farm and bed & breakfast is nestled in the rolling hills of the northern panhandle area of Idaho called the "Palouse." We're just 15 miles from Washington State University Veterinary Hospital (WSU). Dr. Tibary & his staff are our expert vets. Tibary is world-renowned & specializes in camelid reproduction. Pre-breeding checks determine the best time for breeding using ultrasound. Once bred, the females are periodically checked to assure they've retained their pregnancy. Your girls will get the same care as ours while here.
Boarding services are our specialty. If your girls are experiencing problems getting pregnant, staying pregnant, or your boys aren't "shooting bullets" Dr. Tibary and staff at WSU will figure out the problem! Reduce expenses by keeping your animals on our farm instead of being boarded at WSU. Your alpacas will have outdoor access with pasture in their own safe, quarantined pens on our farm. We charge $3/day + transport charges for WSU visits.
We have a comfortable and cozy B&B room for visitors ($110/night for queen room + tax). The B&B is free if during your stay you buy an alpaca (or two)! We'll show you how to feed, water, walk, train, clip toenails, trim teeth, even how to expertly poop-scoop! Ask all the questions you want so you can learn about these fun and captivating creatures! We are here to support you in your alpaca venture whether you buy from us or not.
