Re: [AlpacaTalk] Blowing Fleece

 

We blow ours standing up.. some will fight a bit at first but most of them just sit down and enjoy it.. In fact I had a bottle baby that was everyones pet. She would run up to my dad whenever he was blowing one before shearing and lay down beside and look up and beg.. so cute! . Its like a massage I guess...

Do you blow them before shearing when they are already down or do you do it when they are standing up?  Don't they freak out?   I think I want to try that this year - the vacuuming worked halfway but not near well enough to risk ruining my brand-new vacuum!

Thanks, everyone - I think I'll go out and buy a blower or shop vac!  : )

Why is it that people say they "slept like a baby " when babies wake up like every two hours?
