I have often heard "Be careful what you ask God for because He just might give it to you" We have been asking God for guidance in our lives and for our business and now it seems God is speaking to us. We are going into this whole new adventure of the alpaca world with our eyes wide open in amazement learning along the way. We know nothing about alpacas. Brad knows a lot about animals but not alpacas. Horses- Yes! dogs, cats, small birds of all kinds, peacocks, a turkey, fish, tortise, goats, even a cow, Yes! Yes! Yes! many from the past 30 somthing years of working with animals and many other unusual animals from his growing up years, but alpacas, NO! We were literally walking out the door to go to the MAPACA show in Harrisburg (at the Farm Show complex) when we get the call. There are 5 alpacas that have been rescued and do we want them? They are in bad health and need help. The original owner is getting them back but she has sold off your farm and no place for them now. We head out to the show and spend the day seeing so many wonderful alpacas, afterwards we go out to the farm, that is keeping the rescued alpacas till they get a new home, to check them out. On the way over there we talk about how much we can handle and decide the most we can take would be 3 of them. After getting to the farm and seeing them we find out the origional owner of two of them wants them back, so there are 3 left and all Huacaya (the type we are wanting to start with). Did I mention we know nothing about Alpacas. Monday morning we bring home 3 mal-nurioushed alpacas in much need of attention and a little scared, the alpacas are scared too! China (Female-White) Reese (Male-Brown) AV Tahnia (Female-True Black). I have heard someone preach a message on the Bible that when God says something we need to listen, when He repeats is 2-3 times in the Bible we really need to listen to Him. He is speaking louder! Okay we now have 3 alpacas at once, and did I mention we know nothing about alpacas. I think I did!?
