Heronview Alpacas

Today was a pretty exciting day.  I had made arrangements for  Lorenzo a black Alpaca to come and stay with us. We are useing him to breed to our black girl Raven.

9:30 am  Lorenzo arrives.  We put him in a paddock and go and look at the other Alpacas.  I notice one of my girls is laying down.  Then  I see this little head sticking up above the grass.  Holy crap Innocense had a baby! She was not due until the 27th of August.

I rushed over to look and make sure she was ok.  We must have only missed the birth by a few minutes. she still had the membrane over her whcih we pulled off.  She is a strong little girl , oh did I mention she is a girl!!  That made it even better. She is rose grey and is very pretty and very crimpy.   She was up and nursing within the hour.

I thought Margarette was going to  have her cria also. So I was going out and checking on her  hourly!

go to my website and have a look at our new baby girl. We named her Holly.  www.heronviewalpacas.com
