It's the Alpacas' favourite weekend of the month, they have been let onto the side of their field with new grass on! We have to keep two sides of the field separate to allow the grass to recover after they graze it as they crop it very close to the ground.
They seem to only take a few days to clear the field though so we have to supplement with Hay even in summer. If we had a much bigger field it wouldn't be such an issue, apart from the grass being incredibly difficult to keep growing in the dry conditions. It is good to see them happily grazing again though.
