Mary,
E-mail alpaca nation, the contact Us link at the bottom of the page, and
explain the problem. They can probably free up your e-mail address again so
you can sign up again.

Hi Judith,

Thanks so much for your suggestions...I signed up for the AlpacaNation Forum
but made a mistake of putting in my full name as the user name. I don't
think the user name was supposed to be our own name? When I sign in under my
own name as the user, I get the message that it's invalid. I went back to
change my username and I received the message that my email address was
already in use. Any suggestions on how to get in there to change the user
name?

The forum looks like a very rich resource of Alpaca information!

Hi Mary -- welcome to AlpacaTalk, and -- as Marianne noted -- there are
other groups you might want to consider checking into as well. (As Moderator
I'd be remiss if I didn't suggest you try the AlpacaNation Forum as well --
it's well organized, has lots of diversity of opinion which give you a broad
perspective on the industry, and has some pretty terrific members! Go to www
alpacanation.com/forum to check it out). Also check out the AlpacaNation
library for materials that can be printed out (or read online, if you have
good eyesight!)

It looks to me from the map that you're just a bit below Harrisburg, PA. You
might make it a point to go to the annual MaPaca show there; it's a huge
show, with lots of farms represented, and usually has great educational
programming that you might enjoy taking. It takes place every April. There
are other shows and events too that you can look into to help educate
yourself about the industry (in fact, I was just at the Alpaca Heritage
Events Pen Sale in Mullica Hill, NJ last weekend -- that's probably not too
far from you, and is another annual event you might want to look into).

Have you visited any farms yet? There are some really nice farms not far
from you, so you'll have lots of opportunity to visit, meet folks and get
your hands on a wide variety of alpaca fleeces. Once you get "conformation"
down (and that's not too hard), the biggest aspect of education is fiber.
Make sure you learn all you can about fleece before you invest in anything,
because whatever breeding program you develop hinges on your understanding
of the fiber market.

Happy to have you with us!

Judith
