    They look like they were pretty good about it. Just love seeing the animals! This is why I watch.

    Hi John they look so small now. But still amazingly cute. It’s interesting seeing how they get them down to sheer. The guy does a really good job. Aspen has the cutest head. I think she’s my favourite John. I hope the show goes well for you both. Aspen is a huge 10.

    It is crazy how much smaller they look with out all their hair! I remember there's always some point in the late fall where we kind of forget how small they are under all that fluff and start to think that alpacas are actually pretty big!

    Q-tip John but let's not talk about it. Its funny, I do think the Huacayas look very different but I hardly notice it on Suris because of the fiber difference. Suris always look perpetually shorn to me. All in all, the herd looks great🦙👍

    @@OldReddingFarm Happy Mother's day, Catherine. To your Mom & MIL _and you_ In my book, good animal husbandry requires putting those in your charge first where appropriate. You exemplify that.🪻🔆🌷

    Are they all so well behaved or do some sound as if they are being attacked?

    Some of them cry out the whole time . It's such an upsetting sound but shearing them is necessary!
