Astrid
Astrid cannot be spoken about without mentioning her nickname - Greedy! The first to grab a treat from our guests, Astrid can be recognised by her darker face, chunky thighs and big lips. She is so curious and a bit of a space invader, although doesn’t like the same treatment back, she doesn’t like to be stroked. A firm favourite from visitors, Astrid will have them wrapped around her finger for more and more treats!
Watch Astrid, along with Rohini and Blaze destroy the garden in the name of dust baths
Astrid has a beautiful confirmation and can be seen standing proud in the fields.
Astrid does not miss an opportunity to socialise with visitors, and most importantly, eat treats from them!
We have loved working with Astrid’s thick, dark brown and silky wool. Her frings is a great example of the beautiful colour.
Have you had kisses with Astrid? It’s something unmissable and very special, as she still doesn’t like being touched.
If you adopt Astrid, you’re not only getting yourself, or someone for a gift, a year long subscription to newsletters all about Astrid and the farm, you’re supporting this small business and becoming a part of our journey. As well as this, some of the possibilities your adoption fee pays for and gives Astrid are:
Feeds Astrid special nutirents alpacas need for 1 year
Astrid’s annual injection and any necessary parasite treatments
3 fence repairs to keep Astrid safe
2 cans of petrol to help us maintain healthy pasture for Astrid
10 bales of hay, which will feed Astrid for the duration of the adoption
7 bags of carrots… which is too much for Astrid to eat in a year, but given the chance, she would!
A paddling pool and hours of splash and cooling-down fun
A bag of pony nuts that she will give A LOT of kisses to try and get
