Misty Meadows Alpacas

30/05/2026

There was no morning lie in for the alpacas today as shearing day started bright and early. First up was Mivvi, our big white girl. We love your new 'do' MIvvi and we are sure you are feeling much more comfortable now.
Enormous thanks to Ben Thorpe and his team for the excellent job they made of shearing the alpacas in a careful and considerate way.
Mivvi's beautiful white fleece has already gone to be spun into beautiful things but if anyone would like a whole fleece (blanket) please contact us as other fleeces are available. See our wbsite for more details: www.mistymeadowsalpacas.co.uk

It was carrots all round today for a special occasion - none other than Peaches' ninth birthday! Time for a little wander down memory lane....

The girls were keen to pose for their pre-shearing photos this morning! After the heatwave last weekend I think they will be welcoming the shearer with open arms on Saturday. They will certainly be pleased to have their huge fleeces removed!

There is no better way to spend a beautiful spring afternoon than to go for a walk with the alpacas!

As our sole male cria, we always knew that one day Marmaduke would have to leave us to find some other young male friends. Marmaduke was weaned off his mum, Crumble, eight weeks ago and has been looked after by his granddam, Honey, plus Rolo and Nutkin since then. Over the eight weeks he has grown in size and confidence and we knew the time was fast approaching for him to go to his new forever home.
Yesterday we took him to his new home in the Peak District, making a detour en route to collect a sole male cria from another alpaca farm. Marmaduke took to his new friend, Jet, straight away and they bonded well during the journey.
Marmaduke and Jet got a fabulous welcome from the boys at their new home and Marmaduke was mesmerised by his new friends. We left feeling very confident that our precious boy was going to be loved and well cared for and he were delighted to be assured that we are welcome to visit him at any time.

As 2025 draws to a close, we should like to thank everyone who has supported us over the last twelve months in so many different ways. We are truly grateful. We have been delighted to welcome many visitors back for return visits and also really pleased to introduce our alpacas to new visitors. We wish you all a very happy and peaceful New Year.
