We expect our next crias only next summer, we can now take a deep breath and be thankful of all the good stuff the year 2008 has giving us. Life is good, let's keep humming...!



Our Farm Boutique is now open!
Saturday August 23, 2008

We are very happy to annonce that our on-farm Boutique is now open! Nothing really fancy but we wanted to show some of the possibilities and end products that an alpaca can provide us with. We even have some scarves directly made from the fleece of some of our girls! Beautiful products, good prices. Be sure to ask to see the Boutique when you come for a visit, you are Welcome! Now, if I only could find time to finalize our Boutique "On-Line"...that would be really nice too!



BDA's Second Cria arrived with a Bang!
Wednesday July 23, 2008

Obviously, this year was our "Boy" year! We were waiting for 2 crias this season, both were boys and we are very pleased about these two. However, this birth was not as easy as the previous one and we did need the help of our veterinarian. Fortunately, mom and baby boy made it through and they were just fine at the end! He always seems to be a very happy little boy so we named the cria Felix, it is of Latin origin and the meaning of the name is: "Happy, Fortunate".



BDA's First Cria of the season!
Tuesday July 8, 2008

Having the first cria of the year for a farm is very exciting. For us and for the herd! It was a textbook birth and it was a superb sunny day. But man was it hot! In fact, we did had a record temperature for that particular day! New mom Taffy has definitely selected her day to make us sweat to the bones! It was our first cria of the year and our first cria Boy! We decided to name him Zacharie, meaning "God Remembered".
