Pampered boys

This week we had niece Judy and daughter Amy visiting from Cornwall.  This is Amy feeding Wee Eck his apple slices with Fidget behind.  Amy is wearing a knitted headband secured at the back with a handmade birch button.  I hand spun and knitted the garment from Fergus's fleece.

This is Judy also feeding apples to the boys with Fyta (L), Eck in the middle and Faro (R).  Judy is wearing a curly wurly scarf which I hand spun and knitted from Fergus's fleece.

Judy and Amy also made some jewellery using felted alpaca fleece and marino wool linked with wooden beads.   Amy is wearing the necklace which she made.

The boys like a bit of personal attention from time to time and here are Fidget (L) and Fergus  licking the bowls at the end of supplement feeding time and looking for more.

And finally.....at the end of a busy week of posing, being hand-fed and generally pampered, the boys get stuck into their  daily bowls of supplement yesterday.  With 8 boys having a bowl each it's a good job we don't have 20 boys or we would run out of bowls!  They have had their Verm-X granules added to their feed all week and next week we will get dung samples prepared for testing at the Vet lab.  We had a short visit from Lorna and Sandy of Ardo Alpacas yesterday as they were in this area and they dropped off a camelid drench for the boys.  With more visitors due to arrive from Norfolk at the end of next week, the boys are looking forward to even more personal service!
