We’ve got plenty of ice for the Gin and tonics though but as so often happens we seem to miss out on the snow. I’ve spoken to both Melanie at Moonsbrook Alpacas and Lyndsey at Dreamfield Alpacas today and they are up to their ankles in and have had enough. We kept the younger animals in last night as we did go down to -6 C but they were all eager to get out to the grass this morning. The water troughs need filling by hand but that is where the quad comes in really useful. One thing about this weather is the alpacas do scrub up nicely.

The second photo is one of our favourite crias from last year. She is out of Little Legend and we called her Inkspot as she has a small brown patch on the side of her neck. She’s a real star.
