New Members of the Family

Sunday evening our little fiber family welcomed two new members...Alpaca boys!
They look so much alike that I have a hard time knowing one from the other.  However I do know that they are Suri alpacas and one boy is 3 years old, while the other is 4 years old.  They did have names but the alpacas didn't really respond to them, so the previous owner gave us her blessing to rename them whatever we would like.   It is such a daunting decision to pick names!  I feel like first I must be able to tell them apart and then maybe naming them will be easier.
In the meantime, we will need a lot of time to get to know them and make them feel comfortable and safe here on our little farm.  I'm looking forward to some wonderfully soft and silky fiber!

    Kris, you look quite comfortable with your new 'kids'. I remember when you were telling us about getting them when we were at Cape May.
