All my supers are uncapped honey so nothing to extract so far, but very healthy hives and calm bees! Suit just barely fit but my double layering helmet method is still going strong 💖
WARNING: have caution while playing video! The black one screams We had our annual alpaca shearing + vaccination rounds this weekend! All the alpacas react to shearing differently 💖 Luna here screams at the top of her lungs and Chewpaca has these little whinnies. The rest are fairly quiet, though we did have some spirited kickers!
Did 8 little sets of hooves this weekend and gearing up for a fun summer! Alpaca shearing in 2 weeks, and planning for some winter goat babies this year. Now to make some bee boxes for more hives! Do you have any maintenance coming up for your animals?
I have thought for years I would like an alpaca we used to live by an alpaca farm since my husband left us i grew up rodeoing I need animals for my therapy .. any advice yes no
I love having alpacas! But I will say mine at least are not very cuddly. I think if you start with a cria you may get them more used to human touch, but mine prefer the company of other alpacas to humans. Mine were adopted from 2 different farms when the alpacas were older. They're still very fun to watch and care for but they do feel like they have less personality than my goats for instance.
Google nest still can't tell the difference between alpacas and humans! Do you have any cameras? Where? We normally track gates and water buckets/ feeding areas!
@Theresa Burdick Yes! I actually had a surprise birth last year that I found on camera - she had gotten pregnant through a fence and carried very small, but one day I saw some little niblings around her and rushed out!!
