We have eight geldings, four are 5 years old and four are 4 years old. Their names are: Faro, Fyta, Fergus, Fidget, Gaucho, Gully, Echo and Rufus. Gully and Echo (Wee Eck) are deaf boys. We started keeping Alpacas with 4 boys in June 2007. Through this blog we hope to show how much pleasure can be had from owning Alpacas.
OUR SMALL HERD
Our eight boys came from Ardo Alpacas in Aberdeenshire. We are most interested in the care and welfare of these intelligent animals. We do not intend to breed Alpacas. Our experience is that you don't need to be a breeder and that a 'batchelor herd' can give much pleasure to the owner.
We have 8 acres including our big garden and grazing for the boys, 15 miles north of Inverness, Scotland. I spin, knit, felt and crochet with the fleece from the boys.

Just a reminder that clicking on (most) of the photos will show them greatly enlarged.
