Re: [AlpacaTalk] Any non-US breeders on this site?

Hi Chuck and everyone,

It's Dar from Serenity Suris in Ontario Canada.

I know there are a few others from Canada on the lists here. I always
look for your posts Chuck, because it gives me a little glimpse of the
future. : )

We have a small Suri herd, a dozen or so, and are really enjoying
working with them. It's been a tremendous learning curve, however and
we had some birth related complications last summer and had 1 of our 3
expected crias stillborn. The only girl, of course. Still so much to
learn!

Happy New Year to all of my fellow alpaca lovers!
