Well that’s Christmas over for another year, I probably sound a bit like Scrooge but I always feel a sort of anticlimax at this time of the festive season especially after all the excitement in the build up to the big day.

Sorry for the blog being so quiet recently, I will try and do better for the new year. There you go, that will be my New Years Resolution. I much prefer the sound of that to a diet.

The alpacas cleaned up beautifully in the freezing weather, they seemed to love it. We didn’t have any snow but loads of ice and frozen ground. Alas though the rain is back now and the alpacas have gone back to their drowned rat appearance. We have weaned quite a few of the cria in the last few weeks and as per normal most of them handle the next few days quite happily but there’s always one or two that wonder around totally lost. They’re the ones we watch very closely and dose up with wormer, vecoxan and vitamins. They do loose some weight but soon begin to pick up again.
