And they are now here!

Well this posting is a little delayed but we do now have the boys local. Infact, we drove to get them last Sunday. We had some issues with the trailer and almost did not get them but we later found that we could use my covered truck bed to transport them. We have a great picture of the 3 boys when we arrived.

The boys are all in what seems to be great health. They also all have very good personalities. Our halter training is almost non-required on Alexander and Oddysey but there is some work to be done on Coronado. Though they have all been through a lot. I did want to thank Roxanne of Lands End and the owners of Alpha Omega Alpaca Farm for the care they have given the boys.

To continue on with our learning process, Michelle has actually already become a shot giving pro. I am a bit worried about doing it. I have never worked in fields like that and so I am worried I'll do it wrong and hurt one of them. I'll have to get over it some day though.

As it stands today, we will most likely visit them a couple times over the weekend and will continue to work on our halter training. Which is for us as much or more than the alpacas. We will try to help out with some of the chores at the farm. We get to introduce them to Michelle's parents this weekend too!

The boys will be seperate from the other alpacas for another week or a little longer while they adjust and we watch them for any issues.
