Hey guys,
Today I went outside to let the girls out, and Asia began humming. She is one of our maidens, and she very rarely hums. She is very uncomfortable, and keeps throwing me half worried, half annoyed looks at me. I would say,...

"Hi, I'm new here." Alpacas gestate for 11-12 months. The wait is long. On our farm we take a
