Adventures with Alpacas
Thursday, June 11th, 2009We were invited by the Decker sisters to visit their alpaca ranch, Tranquil Spirits. A cria, a baby alpaca, had recently been born and they were expecting more. Lady Godiva, or “Lady G,” as the Decker sisters called their first cria, was born early, weighing only 13 pounds, 1 ounce. For a human, that would be extraordinary, but Lady G was in jeopardy since she was only about half of a normal birth weight.
