Mud, Mud and More Mud!

People often ask me how the animals like the rain. Generally speaking, they seem pretty happy with wet weather, often choosing to stand outside in the drizzle rather than taking shelter. The alpacas especially stand outside as they originally come from the Peruvian Andés mountains and cold weather is standard fare. However, the mud factor around here in winter is pretty daunting. Hence why most pony rides are postponed until spring...!
