our alpacas: adventures in toenails
Posted: October 11th, 2009 | Author: Hellchick | Filed under: Alpacas | No Comments »The time to trim our alpacas’ toenails has been creeping up on us so we decided today was a good day to finally tackle that job. We’d done some practice trimming at Jo’s Fleece Fields so we’d been able to ease our minds a bit about the process, but we were still nervous because we’re still learning exactly how to handle our alpacas. But toenail trimming time is a good time for us to get more practice haltering the boys, trimming their nails, and generally trying to get a hold of them when they don’t want to be gotten a hold of.
