There have been some very creative people on the Alpaca experience visits this week.
Don’t you love this video by Laura:
Bromance between Gucci and Andy the punk turned soft.
Twin update for today:
Pale boy training for the Olympics making the use of the extended pen.
Brown boy not so clever but getting a little stronger
Both have gained weight 5.95 kg ,4.85 kg.
Etta and I are desperate to get them all out in the big paddock with the herd, but I’m worried she may walk away with the strong boy and abandon little brown boy. Such instinct would make a lot of sense from an evolutionary point of view and I’m sure the wild Vicuña would abandon the weaker twin to favour the survival of at least one. I’m hoping that if I keep them close together for long enough, she will bond so strongly with little brown boy that she won’t abandon him. She certainly seems devoted and was feeding them both at the same time this morning 💕💕
All my party friends are gathered ready to listen to Glastonbury live. In-garden entertainment is fleece skirting. Top Saturday night 😉
Sunny morning in the paddock - spot the hare hopping, spot the expect mum.
Maud disapproves of the wrestling little boy Packers and tries to break them up.
Help! Where’s my herd
All the girls were thrilled to get a new grassy paddock but for some reason little Barbarella got left behind. In her panic she runs over to Maud to ask directions, then tries to be cool when she joins the herd until she sees Mum. .
Wire haired vizsla pups in action
These 3 girls are still waiting to meet their forever friend and go to their new homes. Available from 6th Nov
Dreaming puppy. Determined not to be woken up!
Maud puppies, learning to play fight. Four weeks of fun and chaos ahead before they are ready for going to new homes.
But they have ultimate respect for Tyka the wolf dog
The rain stopped so time to play chase.
Not much respect for Maud who got run over!
Beware the baby alpacas with glowing eyes. They come out at dusk to weave their spells.
Come and meet them:
For limited time we are doing evening visits. You can sit amongst the alpacas and watch them play. They are always more fun in the evening. Racing, chasing and playing dare to come and meet you. Phone Jane 07762286050 to book.

360 degrees of beautiful Solway from its heart in the middle of the sands and not an alpaca in sight
This is how good a new paddock of green green grass feels
Something in the air this evening. Everyone zooming! 🤣
Posh is grumpy- liquorice spoilt her sunset gazing
Welcome to the world.
Beck Brow Fine Romance is an old hand at this game. Popped out in no time, cria on her feet in minutes, hardly fumbled when finding Mum’s milk.
Sire: King Garth Solway Sandbar. He’s proud of his 1st cria, (well he will be when I tell him).
