We are still waiting for Arwen’s cria-this is the one I was positive would be early or right on the due date. Hah!! She had other plans. I seriously believe it will be tomorrow morning. Her only prior cria that was after her due date was 7 days after the due date. That’s tomorrow!

I just figured out how to load photos in the Photo Gallery. I only had time to do a few tonight. Have a look.

We are currently waiting and watching for Arwen to give birth. She was due 8/22/08, so we are on daily alert for any signs of impending birth. This is her fifth cria. Twice before she has given birth on her due date. We were positive that she would do it again this year, but as with many things “alpaca”, as soon as we think we have something figured out-we learn that we don’t. So, Arwen is merrily grazing, lounging around, sunbathing, etc – doing all the things that alpacas do – as we watch and wait. Keep checking back here for updates.

Pamelamas LLC has acquired 1/2 interest in a Hemingway/Alpamayo grandson. Clifford is co-owned with K&K Alpacas, and he is boarding at Long Plains Alpacas. We will be adding him to our website soon. He is currently available for breeding at $1,000 for the first 10 breedings.

Poco gave birth to a female cria on June 6, 2008. She is a Ravi Divine daughter (Shakelton granddaughter) and solid dark brown. We’ve named her The Divine Miss M.
