[AlpacaTalk] RE: Introduction
<<< I am brand new to this group. I have owned two suri
male alpacas that were rescue boy. One is black and one is
white. ANd, I just adopted a third white suri boy. They
have been living on an alpaca farm that belongs to a friend.
I also raise Border Leicester sheep and angora rabbits, all for
fiber, as I am a handspinner and weaver and I have a fiber arts
business, selling my products. The rabbits are at my home,
and the sheep are at another friend's farm. But, last month
I was able to arrange to lease land right behind my house,
instead of traveling 25 min to get to either the sheep or
alpacas. So, I have fencing going up next week, the run in
shed is on sight and I hope to have the animals here in about two
weeks! I am more than excited! This is a dream come
true. I also have working border collies, who will finally
be able to work with me, with the sheep every day. Although
the sheep and alpacas will be in the same field, I have a 20 x 20
"catch pen" that the alpacas will be lured into with feed while
the dogs are in the field. I have lots of questions that I
will be asking over the next few weeks I am sure!
Thanks,

Welcome Susan and super news about being able to move your animals
home. That's great!
I envy your fiber arts business; something I have long wanted to do, but
have never found the time; still hope to tho.
