Re: [AlpacaTalk] re: hi from new member
Hi Janice,
My sheep shearer is going to help me learn to shear my own sheep this year.
I'm hoping that she can do my alpacas too. I want to be able to do it myself,
eventually!
Yes, I trim my own goats and sheep hooves. With help from my husband, we
could probably do the alpacas. The mama is a kicker, so that will be fun, lol.
I have my sheep for pets and for their fiber! I needle felt and love making
little animals from their wool. Now I'll have the alpaca wool to work with
too! Can't wait to try it.

2 years old but still our baby. She is just fine.
My next adventure is to find someone to shear my 4 alpacas for me, and to
help trim their hooves!

Who shears your sheep? The guy that shears my alpacas is actually a
sheep shearer, but when the alpaca people discovered his gentle ways, he
had a whole new clientele.
You can trim their hooves - that part's easy - it's getting them to
*let* you, or restraining them.
Do you trim your goat's hooves? I think its about the same, but I've
never had goats so don't really know. There are other people here that
have goats so I am sure they can tell you better than I.
Do you have your sheep for fiber? Or grass cutting :-).
I used to want some Baby Doll sheep, but haven't thought about it in a
long time.
Janice
