Alpacas get new 'dos at Pacabella Shearing Day 2018

April 09, 2021 1 min read

We had a super shearing day this year at Pacabella Farm Alpacas and Boutique! Altogether, David Willis of Iron Heart shearing clipped 13 alpacas, including one pregnant alpaca, two young alpacas who'd never been sheared and two from another farm.

In addition to being sheared, the alpacas got rabies vaccinations and treatments to prevent worms. Some also got their teeth and nails trimmed.

We were blessed with good weather, and visitors were in and out all day. Several first-time visitors made it out to the farm along with some long-time friends. Many folks brought their lunch, visited the barn and made fun purchases in our boutique.

When it was all done, the alpacas were much cooler and we had 11 bags of firsts, which weighed more than 40 pounds!

Enjoy the video!

Did you know alpaca fiber is hypoallergenic? The fine nature of alpaca fiber gives alpaca clothing a superior softness against your skin. The fiber is not prickly and does not heat you up like wool. Because alpaca fiber has a hollow core, it is a breathable fabric so even when you get inside from the cold, your alpaca clothing will remain comfortable to wear.
