Birthdays at Shepherd's Purse Alpacas

Baby Molly resting Alpaca birthdays slow down again this month, since we normally breed for spring or fall babies, and November can be a bit chilly for little ones. Fortunately, we have two early November alpaca birthdays to celebrate! So please wish a big Happy Birthday to:

This photo shows baby Molly on the day she was born, she is also shown all grown up in the picture just above and to the right. Wish the November babies happy birthday the next time you visit!



Ribbon-Winners at the AOA National Fleece Show

The next time you visit, congratulate SPF Harrigan, SPF Ines, SPF Happy Boy, The Wild Rover of SPF, SPF Weapon of Choice, and SPF Sweet Marie for their ribbons at the AOA National Fleece Show Spin-off! We are especially pleased with Harrigan and Ines, who took home first place ribbons, and Happy, Rover, and Weapon, who took home second place ribbons!

Everyone received high praise for the soft handle of their fleece and the quality of the resulting handspun yarn. It is gratifying to see our breeding program get some great feedback for our fiber production!

Here's Happy Boy looking at the girls! Come on out to congratulate the winners and see how macho he has become!
