WaterAlpacas




It has been really hot today and when I went into the boys' paddock to clean their trough they enjoyed sitting under the spray of the hose. Alpacas really like water and it is a major job to keep the troughs clean in hot weather as they use them as cold dip and of course the mud comes off their feet into the water.




We have some big galvanised troughs in some of the paddocks and it is not unusual to see two or three alpacas lying down in one with a queue of other ones waiting to climb in.
