LOVELY photos Moobli!! Loving the cheeky Wensleydale, I had to rescue one of the farmer's ewes near to me recently, it had got stuck on it's back! The Tupp was a little bit too interested for my liking, but fortunately didn't try to intervene with the rescue effort!

I can't remember, but are Al paca's the domesticated version of a guanaco? Or are they separate breeds completely?

The Alpaca is related to the Llama, its much bigger "cousin." The "Vicuna" is thought to be the wild version of the Alpaca. I think the Guanaco is the biggest of them all and is also a wild animal.

Gorgeous pictures Moobli! Are they Suri's or Huacaya's? I can't see enough of their fleece to be sure?

Sorry, I don't know. What is the difference? Would you be able to tell if I got a photo showing their fleece?

Not sure this is any better?



I can get some more if you like?
