Norris....has had a Hair Doo !!

Norris...looking very smart !....


Norris getting sheared....I think he enjoyed it ! Zanubis.....




Norris...looking rather hot !!......



A couple of weeks ago Norris had a new Hair Do !



He is the first to get the new summer look......if you remember last year I hand sheared him, but I didn't manage to get under his belly sheared !


So this year I decided to get the professionals in.....for a much 'cooler' look.


Norris behaved remarkably and he was done it about 5 mins.....


The alpacas are due to be sheared next Monday so lets hope the weather is kind to them after the big day.


Sods Law usually dictates that the weather is horrible just after shearing, you never know we might even get a little new arrival before then.


Aymara is looking like she is starting to prepare herself for her new arrival, she is currently at day 330 ! I don't think we will be waiting too long, mind you I have four or more girls at the same gestation, two are maidens, so might carry slightly longer than the others.


Having said that, Zakhura looks the largest between the maidens closely followed by Trienza !
Apart from that is has been another lovely day ......just a case of waiting and counting the days.....its starting to get just a little bit exciting.....

Norris is nearly as big as Mia, I was going to shear her today but Molly finally had other ideas!

Sods Law prevailed with us I am afraid Jayne.......no sooner than our herd was shorn, the weather turned for the worst! We do need the rain down here however!!
