We had our first 2019 cria (baby alpaca) born a Saturday or so ago. We haven’t done much breeding the last couple of years, so it seems even more special to now have a cria on the farm. Although we brought all our alpacas to our farm in 2011, and we have had plenty of cria since then, this is the first time I have ever actually seen a birth! [ 609 more words ]

Shearing Day Tuesday, April 16th 7:30 am - 11:00 am Tuesday, April 16, 2019 is our annual Shearing Day. This is our “Harvest Day”….the day that we have worked toward for the past year. This is the day that we truly see the results of all our hard work……how we have cared for the animal, sheltered them and fed them; protected them from stress, from predators, and in some cases even from Mother Nature.

The weather in our area since the first of the year has been crazy! Rain, snow, ice, high winds and brutally cold temps seem to have taken over. We have had a few nicer days in between so it hasn’t been all bad, but it has definitely been a wintery start to the year. We always get asked how the animals are doing when the weather is extreme like this. [ 352 more words ]

We are preparing for spring on the farm and it is a crazy, busy time! It was an unusual winter here……..warm and dry, with only a couple of inches of snow all winter. We finally got some rain this past week and are anticipating more this week. Hopefully we are coming out of this dry spell. With so much going on around here, I will try my best to keep you updated.
