How to Raise Your Own Alpacas on the Homestead

Some good looking alpacas in the pic at the link sporting some heavy coats .... aaahhhh ... FIBER!!

I spent a LOT of time with the wool ‘rovings’ when I was at Wisconsin Craft Mart, yesterday. To the point that someone asked me if I needed help, LOL!

I said, “Thank you! I’m getting all the ‘therapy’ I need right here!” :)

I’m considering Angora Rabbits for the same reason. But, that won’t happen until we get the new pole barn built so they have a safe place to live.
