I am a handspinner. I am interested in goats, sheep, llamas, alpaca and chickens. I plan on having livestock soon when relocated out West.
I do not have any llama or alpaca photos or stories to share. I have spun Alpaca and Llama fibers tho... wonderful to spin. I have owned goats before but never alpaca or llamas.
Hi Pepper. In the Texas heat, you will want to be sure your llama is sheared each Spring, and that they have adequate shade available during the hot times. When you are ready, I would be happy to talk with you in detail about choosing the right llama with the right guardian instincts. You are welcome to come visit our ranch when you are in the area - we would be happy to share our experiences and let you interact with both the goats and llamas here.
Hi. I saw where you said you were moving near Austin. We live close to Austin and would be glad to help if you ever have any questions. Feel free to stop by for a visit too. Courtnee - Sapaveco Ranches
