Alpaca Notes - Tasmania - November 2007

The New Maddy

November 28th 2007 00:10

Maddy’s had her very first yearly haircut.

She had a ton of fleece on her (ok, a slight exaggeration, but it was a lot). So she’s looking quite a bit smaller now.

I’ll start a poll. Does Maddy look better with her fleece on or off?

Alpaca Madeline - After Haircut

Yes, it’s definitely the same alpaca.

I like it off! She looks so cute, all shawm but still with fluffy ears. Mind you, it does look as though her neck could snap with one wrong move

Ahhh. Don't let the neck fool you. Those scrawny little necks are super strong.

Hi ROsemary,

Oh my word what a transformation! With eyes like that though, you would overlook the coat wouldn`t you? They are gorgeous!

Hi Ash. They have the biggest eyes and when they stand and stare at you you just wish you knew what they were thinking.

Maddy is gorgeous. Some of the girls are pregnant so fingers crossed for more babies just like her over summer. Cheers.

They're different from us, we cross our fingers that we're not pregnant. Definitely looks better with her clothes on, just like the rest of us.

Hi katyzzz. They're pregnant for around 342 days but the baby stays really small until the last 1-2 months, so they handle it pretty well.

Hi HGL. Thanks for dropping by. They are adorable animals. The ones with teddy bear faces are the cutest things, but all of them have a personality. Cheers

Rosemary, she ought to be in the movies, almost as cute as my Tinkerbelle, but a bit too large for the lounge, perhaps she should just have here eyes done, great allure there. No trouble attracting guys I shouldn't think!

HI Krystal. That's an idea, I'll get the camera out and take some more home movies. Cheers.
