Welcome to the podcast for alpaca people! Another storm - Darragh - hit the valley and made some impact. High winds, rain and a power cut. We lost some trees to the 80 mph winds but no serious damage to house or stable. Today was very quiet and I found myself on my own and feeling on my own - the valley was quiet and empty. Most of the time it does…

Welcome to the podcast for alpaca people! Alpacas are mysterious creatures. We get to know them but they still surprise us with their mysterious ways.

Welcome to the podcast for alpaca people! In this episode, I sit in the sun and think alpacas, and swans, and herons and the rest.

Birds about today on a beautiful, clear,…

Welcome to the podcast for alpaca people! You can enjoy being with alpacas whatever the weather. They seem to cope with it all but it does change their behaviour, which is true of us too.

Welcome to the podcast for alpaca people! Alpacas are semi-ruminant. That means they have multiple stomach compartments (three) and chew the cud.

This seems amazingly simple to my alpacas but I can't …
