Re: Suspected Spam:[Alpacasite] a newbie who learns somthing new almost every hour neverr mind everyday!!!

Hi All,

Can't stand it....one other story....! A few years ago, it was my turn
to go to the drug store and pick up the enemas for the crias. We are a
large farm and so we tend to buy a lot at one time to stock up. I was
standing at the check out with 50 fleet enemas at the register. The
employee looked up at me and asked with a smirk.... "having a party?"

Ok my turn to give you a chuckle. This will remind all of you who have
been doing this for awhile to try and remember to tell your new owners
every little thing :-)

When I bought my 6 animals I asked if I could have their fleece from this
year also. ( I learned to ask for that from this list ) ;-)

I have been learning to spin and have been using some of my fleeces. I had
wondered why some of the fibre I was using did not look as nice as what
was on the actual animals. My one older girl I was using to practice my
spinning with( I figured no sense in using my better fleeces for this) was
pretty hard to card. Her fleece seemed shorter and it was also dusty.
I asked my instructor if she could use the electric carder to do some for
me. she asked me why this was so dusty and short.

I was at my Alpacas breeders and was mentioning this to her on the weekend.
She almost went pale :-) Asked me how I was getting the fleece I told her
just taking handfuls out of the paper bags. I could see her getting woozy
thought she was going to faint. I knew then I had done something wrong.
First she apologized because the one girl I was using had not been skirted
so was still dusty.

Then she explained to me that the entire fleece was in the bags and I was
taking from the stomach and thighs and was ruining the integrity of the
fleece by yanking out handfuls.

When she took one and showed me how to open it up and select nice pieces I
was shocked at the difference. Went home and did my own. Man what I thought
was nice fleece before was nothing compared to the treasure I found inside
the rolled up blankets :-)

Sorry to be long but it was exciting all over again. So please don't take
anything for granted that us newbie's will know :-)
