Came for shearing day yesterday! This is I'd say a medium sized ranch. They got maybe 30 or so alpacas? Upon entering we were greeted by a friendly staff member, and I should say, everyone there was super friendly, even to the strange asian outsiders that decided to show up randomly hehe.
When we got there, they had already sheared most of the chums, but they still had quite a few left, like the big white one, Nitro. You'd think he was super tuff, cuz he was so big and strong, but he was the biggest baby of all, and kept crying the whole time hehe. He was just yelling and screaming the whole time, poor thing. Some of the other ones were real cool about it, like they didn't care at all, until they started cutting the fur on their heads and they'd start kicking!
There's also a small gift shop on site, where they sell alpaca related things, like scarves and vests and stuff. I think they're made of the alpaca wool from the ranch. They also had some feed you could buy. That's the only way the alpacas will come to you, cuz as we all know, animals only like you if you have food lol.
This is a fun place to visit for an afternoon, definitely worth the hour or so of driving. It's in Hamilton so you can go to the waterfalls after, or Dundurn Castle, it's super convenient for a day trip!
