@cre8tivkj We have 15 to shear. I am exhausted too. I am fading fast here. Hope a good night's sleep helps. Good luck tomorrow. 5:24 PM Apr 17th from web in reply to cre8tivkj
@AlpacaFarmgirl Too funny about the TP penny pinching. My huband & I spent a good 10 minutes comparing TP prices today and then bought wine. 5:21 PM Apr 17th from web in reply to AlpacaFarmgirl
All alpacas ready for tomorrow.Our team of shearers have arrived and will spend the night. A great group of young men. Excellent shearers. 5:14 PM Apr 17th from web
@cre8tivkj We need to compare our prep experiences after today & hope we don't have too much cold weather ahead after our pacas loose coats. 6:26 AM Apr 17th from web in reply to cre8tivkj
@cre8tivkj Blowing out the fleece works better than the vacuum method. Just wear a mask! 7:37 AM Apr 16th from web in reply to cre8tivkj
@cre8tivkj All of the vegetable matter, hay, poo we pick off by hand. We spend extra time on the alpacas we use for show fleece. 7:35 AM Apr 16th from web in reply to cre8tivkj
@cre8tivkj We halter them and use a small vacuum that also blows out. Shop vacs work but can be noisy and frightening to the pacas. 7:30 AM Apr 16th from web in reply to cre8tivkj
@rowebball Many farms bartering and/or trading breedings this year. We are in the process of a breeding trade for one of our girls. 6:49 AM Apr 16th from web in reply to rowebball
@AlpacaFarmgirl Thanks.Tomorrow we are preparing the pacas for shearing. De-vegetating and blowing out excess dust always a fun day. Cough! 6:41 AM Apr 16th from web in reply to AlpacaFarmgirl
@bareftbeachbaby This year the weather is not perfect for shearing in our area - I think we are relatively close to you. Wet & cold, yuk! 2:35 PM Apr 15th from web in reply to bareftbeachbaby
Shearing our alpacas Saturday. Have a fantastic team coming. Gathering shearing paraphernalia. Next task, keep alpacas dry and mud free. 6:27 AM Apr 15th from web
@suzhomefinder Congrats! Did you attend the Indiana show? 2:09 PM Apr 6th from web in reply to Suzalpacas
@AlpacaSpinner You are inspiring me to attempt spinning one more time. Am looking at boxes of fleece containing past years shearings. 10:23 AM Apr 5th from web in reply to AlpacaSpinner
@llamakevin Riding tractor and cutting grass is the best therapy for me, does it help you with processing events of last few days? 10:18 AM Apr 5th from web in reply to llamakevin
@bareftbeachbaby I am so happy to hear how well Isabella is progressing. She certainly was born at a loving farm. 4:46 PM Apr 4th from web in reply to bareftbeachbaby
@KhensU Congratulations! A big pat on the back to you and your paca! 4:44 PM Apr 4th from web in reply to KhensU
@llamakevin We lost our magnificent guard llama a few months ago. One of my older alpaca girls cushed in his favorite pasture spot for days. 11:52 AM Apr 4th from web in reply to llamakevin
@llamakevin She was so young and she held such an important role in the herd, this does magnify the loss. Her herd will need you even more. 10:32 AM Apr 4th from web in reply to llamakevin
@bareftbeachbaby So true. All of my fashion magazines have been replaced with equipment and farm supply catalogs. 10:19 AM Apr 4th from web in reply to bareftbeachbaby
@llamakevin So sorry to hear about your loss. They are each so special to us. 10:15 AM Apr 4th from web in reply to llamakevin
