Welcome to Macedo's Mini Acre..

Marvelous Alpacas and Miniature Horses!
Ranch Store open by appointment to find a holiday gift, yarn to create your own - or to add an alpaca to your ranch.
What began our interest in alpacas started a long time ago. Maureen did a report on the Incan Empire and loved reading about the beautiful clothes, the gold, the lamas and alpacas. One of our daughters is an avid knitter and designer, who loved working with alpaca fiber, so she convinced us to take a closer look at alpaca ranching. We researched bloodlines, visited ranches and attended seminars. Larry looked over the financial aspects of alpaca ownership and decided that they could become a business that we could both enjoy as well as being profitable. We started with two males - one of whom has become a ranch stud, the other a consistent spin off winner. When we began adding females we used ARI records to locate older production females with excellent genetics. From there we have begun stepping up our fiber quantity as well as quality. Our mini horses are small yet offer good conformation and the potential to excel as either a pet or in the show ring. Desperado is a proven stallion with Buckaroo bloodlines. A miniature horse lets us have more horses with lower feed bill! |
Macedo's Mini Acre is large enough to offer a variety of choices - fiber or pet alpacas, show candidates, mini horses as well as alpaca products. And still small enough to provide quality service to our customers! |
