The alpacas are here!!! 04/20/2011
Our alpacas are here!! Big thanks to Amanda & her dad for coming over Monday evening with them to bring us some alpacas, hay & fiber. The boys had a ton of fun eating what little grass we had and figuring out how to step on the scale without spitting. They promptly managed to eat all the grass in the holding area pasture while Scott and I sipped a nice Muscato d'asti and watched the sun set on our new alpaca adventure. Unfortunately for the boys they didn't realize they could enter the shed and promptly got soaked that night with a heavy rain fall. Luckily on Wednesday when it rained again, they figured it out. Scott went out & promptly collected "magic" beans the day after they arrived and was rewarded with a half a bucket for the plants. So hopefully this trend of him cleaning the pasture continues :). Enjoy the photos of the boys and feel free to stop by and visit them. I will be getting some fiber up in my Etsy store soon hopefully and have included some photos of my washing and drying station for fleece. I also got some wonderful 30% alpaca, 30% merino, 20% bamboo, and 20% nylon sock yarn in to do some test dying on for my future Superheros vs. Villains sock yarn club. Keep your eyes open for May for a big update in the store. Add Comment | Spotted Circus
