We had a fellow from Idaho come to shear the sheep and the alpacas. He had already done 55 that day at another ranch and then finished up at our place. It has been snowing all day today so the alpaca looks pretty silly running around without his fleece.

The babies have started arriving. We have 3 baby goats and a new calf. The rest of the calves will come in April. The bull got out early this spring so this was a surpise and we are hoping this is the only one for now.

The ice is gone and we ended up with a lot of wind latley. We are now awaiting the arrival of baby goats and sheep. They will be followed by pigs and cows. The next few months will be busy but a lot fun watching all the young ones grow.
