The alpacas

[ScoobyRoo20]

My inlaws have these alpacas. Funny little creatures if you ask me. These four white ones, they have had for about 2 months now. Arriving midweek, from New Mexico, will be about 10 more of all different colors. I'll be sure to snap them so you too can see the new arrivals.

I think this one is Puff^^

Ans I think this is Mo. I might have Puff and Mo mixed up though.

Here's Chad and Skyler with the alpacas. Alpacas are more inquizitive than cats at times.

Here's Skyler showing Bobo his car.^^

OK Just curious. I remember seeing an ad a while back talking about how you can make money by raising these things, my question is how? The fur?

You can use the wool the same way as sheep. There's a mini llama farm down the road from us, I guess they are similar. I mean the farm is mini, not the llamas

They have really sweet faces! The pics of 'Mo' and 'Puff' are the same animal I think, they both have the number 92 on their tag.

They're very cute. The expression on the boy's face is priceless in the first one!

You can make $$ from thier fur. After it's processed, it feels like cashmire. And it's not as alergenis as sheeps wool. You can also make money for breeding them. I saw a stud, a mating male, sella t auction for over $100,000.

"Puff" and "Mo" have cute faces! No matter who is who. (Only is the first of their two photos sharper ).

And I agree with Rob: the expression of Skyler in the first pic is great .
