No news on the alpaca front I thought our alpaca Southern Cross was going to have a cria this morning but it turned out to be a false alarm. Still the day is not over yet and my alpacas pay scant regard to the rule about always birthing before noon.

I am assuming the female alpacas Latte is now pregnant to Conman. But will do one more spit test before doing an ultrasound exam. In fact I will probably get the vet to bring the ultrasound when she comes to examine Southern Crosses new cria and draw blood for IgG testing which ensures the new alpacas immune system is up to scratch and of course a few drops of blood for the ARI DNA testing and registration.

The hay is now all dry and yesterday afternoon we got it baled.
