Christmas Day at JandJ Alpacas

JandJ Rufus

It was a very wet Christmas morning but the sun came out for a few minutes to take photos of our wet & muddy alpacas. Rufus is out in the paddocks with his brothers & still manages to look cute even when he's wet. 

Our  cria are all turning 6 months & still with their mothers. They have the large shed & with the weather being the way it is have been shut in some nights & sometimes in the day when it has been really bad. 

We let the alpacas out Christmas morning & could watch them while we were having Christmas dinner but shut them back in for the night before it got dark

JandJ Rufus

JandJ Rufus is so cute & very like his brother Finn, whose photo is on our leaflets. We just missed his birth. His mum Vermillion is a reddish brown, hence her name & always has pretty cria. She has had 6 cria with us 4 boys and 2 girls & as

 she is our oldest alpaca at 15, we have decided to retire her this year.

Rufus is now 6 months old, a lovely red brown colour & a little smaller than the rest but still has a gorgeous face.
