Joules, Dillon & Sapphire

After Thorn we had Joules, Dillon & Sapphire. When we are naming our alpacas we tend to try & go with a theme so we can hopefully remember their names easily. So Joules mum Paula Rego has cria named after clothing labels last year she had MacKenzie & Joules this year. Dillon is Tansy's first cria so we have gone with Magic Roundabout!!!! hence Dillon. Sapphire is also Diamond's first cria so we have gone with gem stones. A completely mad system I know but it does work.

2010 Cria

We have had 21 cria this year. I really need to keep my blog up to date so I am really going to try over the next couple of months.

Back in May we were getting ready for the National Show at Newark at which we received a lovely handful of rosettes & were really proud of our show team.

1st for Comet & Lex

3rd for Ani, Fergus & Murphy

4th for Dragonfly

An update on Thorn he has turned into a beautiful boy with cute markings on his face, always one of the first at the gate to see whose coming. Celeste is also lovely about to be weaned.

Here's a photo of some of the cria back in June - Persia, Nell, Dillon, Sapphire, Hope & in the background Ruby Tuesday.
