Alpaca Shearing

It's that time of year once again. Alpaca shearing at Newaukum Creek Alpacas came and went.

Once again our shearer managed to get through 22 alpacas in 3 1/2 hours!! Just under 10 minutes per alpaca!! No they didn't look like hell, they looked very nice, only needed a slight touch up here and there!

Now the work begins, fiber samples to be sent in for testing, show blankets to be skirted, fiber to be sorted and sent for processing... 

Got fiber???? We do!!! Call us if you want some raw, spun or finished goods.
