Re: [[AlpacaTalk] What's new?

 

That's a great price for the coats! Every year we have a couple of really cold snaps and a few of our oldest girls really do take it hard and shiver the whole time. We keep intending to make some, but at $12.95, that sounds like a great value and we don't have to do an extra project!

I live in SE Pa. and we got 12" last week and 18" this week and are also expecting another storm midweek. I now have a better appreciation of what breeders in the snowier states go through every winter. We are a small farm, only 14 alpacas but by the time we drag out hot water to add to the water buckets and try to clean up manure that is frozen to the ground or buried in snow 2 hours have passed. I am really happy I bought coats for my 2 thin girls. Money is tight so I ordered xxxl dog coats, 44"-49" from Big Dee's online. They were on sale for $12.95 each, are waterproof and have velcro belly bands. They were so nice I ordered a few more yesterday. I was complaining about the mud but all this snow is worse. It just looks prettier. Stay warm everyone.
