Welcome to the podcast for alpaca people!
The frequency of the Alpaca Tribe podcast will be changing from May 2025. It will become every two weeks rather than weekly. The alternate weeks will be filled by a new podcast called View From The Valley, which will focus on the 'other' things, leaving Alpaca Tribe to focus more on the alpacas. I would love to know what you think.
Lake emptied and is back to half-full - weather doing its thing. The geese are nesting and the fox is around. The other birds are noisy. Spring is here, but the grass has not quite arrived. Recent rain will help with the catch-up.
Freds is coping but being careful on the steep slopes. Desire lines and the right light levels help him negotiate the hill with his poor eyesight.
Try to take advantage of any good weather you have and spend some time with your alpacas.
Claire Whitehead of Camelid Veterinary Services has just published a new book - The Camelid Care Handbook for Alpaca & Llama Owners: Foundations of Care (Volume 1). Comprehensive and practical - it is worth checking out.
Thanks for listening, and I hope you enjoyed it.

Alpaca Tribe is hosted and produced by Steve Heatherington of Waterside Voices.
