So did you like the movie “Les Miserables”? Well so did we. We named Sierra’s female cria Fantine (Anne Hathaway’s Character) we also have Cosette and of course Hugo named for the writer Victor Hugo.

Well I guess our due date was wrong on Sedona. She had her cria today and it’s not a premie. I was out of town and my granddaughter Shelby was on baby watch. She returned home and not 10 minutes later her dad called and told her there was a baby on the ground. She… Read more »
NessaRose finally had her cria. I shouldn’t say finally because she was actually a few days early. I predicted she would be born on the 28th as my niece was visiting and like clockwork there is normally a baby born when she is here. So the morning of, December 28th at 8:51 AM Nessa had,… Read more »

This is the “Friendliest Alpaca Show in the World”.
It’s always fun to have a booth full of alpaca fiber, rovings, and yarn at a fiber festival. We were way busy with lots of returning customers. What a fun day enjoyed with other fiber enthusiasts.
What a great day. We opened the farm from 10 to 4 for people to experience the alpaca lifestyle. The pastures were opened to visitors to interact with the alpacas. Though the alpacas were shy in the beginning they warmed up and stood, kushed or walked up to the visitors for attention. The day on… Read more »
Every year we take a few alpacas to our booth at the local Honeybee Festival. It’s a good way to get your show string alpacas bullet proof for the ring. After hundreds of hands on experiences a one on one with the Judge is “no big deal”.
Our family had fun feeding the alpacas this was our second time visiting so beautiful thank you for having this 🙂 the kids just loved it the hot dogs were a hit as well we appreciate all that makes this possible … thank you!!
