[AlpacaTalk] Re: not receiving messages
LOL, the first time I saw mine after a spit fight, but without having
witnessed it, I was panicked. They were breathing hard, agitated,
drooling green stuff and their bottom lips were hanging! OMG, they're
choking or poisened or...!??!? Fortunately, b/4 I rushed them to the
vet, a more experienced breeder laughingly told me what it was. Ah,
the things we forget to tell newbies...
Peace,
