Georgette - I don't think I've heard of anyone with alpacas here, but my memory isn't that great! I've seen some pictures of them - they're SO cute! Just like fuzzy little llamas. You may try posting the question under the "Barnyard Buddies" forum - there are many great animal ladies (and gents!) who know a lot... Just so nobody misses the question...
Are you thinking of getting some? I've heard also that they're great with children, which is pretty neat, too.
Sorry, I haven't the hang of this forum yet, so am posting things in the wrong places. I will go to Barnyard Buddies and do it. Thanks for the advice!! (I think they look like fuzzy teddy bears!!)
