Re: [AlpacaTalk] a new birth
Hi Wendy,
Sharing such a lovely success story is what it's all about.
Congratulations from across the pond to you. It sounds to me like you
did a great job of helping them both out. What a joy it must be to you.
We are in the middle of birthing and so far have had 5 cria (4 boys and
1 girl), and 2 more to go. Fingers crossed all will go well with them
all. It is both an anxious and a wonderful time isn't it?!
Very Best Wishes
