Welcome to Our Blog

Welcome! I've set up this blog as a place to talk about our life with alpacas. We have been working with them for two years now and what a great experience it has been. I often find myself after the chores are done just standing and staring at the alpacas as they hang out in the field. They are such peaceful animals.

As we grow our alpaca herd we want to share our experiences, what we learn and all of the joys of being a part of this business of raising alpacas.

Our joy today was watching the girls head out to the pasture with four cria born this year by their sides. The crias were so excited to be out in the cold grass that they played chasing each other for the longest time. As soon as one would want to stop another would come up and softly tug at his/her leg and off they would go again. Who can run the fastest was the name of the game today. It was funny to see that the fastest one turned out to be a little brown boy who was just born two weeks ago. Talk about a proud little guy. As we enjoyed watching them run his mother did not see the enjoyment in watching her boy venture farther and farther away from her. You have to keep an eye on those little ones every min. :)
