<p>Nutmeg is a wonderful girl. She is a great mom and loves her cria&#8217;s.. Nutmeg had her first cria, Copper, a little boy and was a great mom!  With last years cria, Copper, she had plenty of milk and was very attentive.  Copper is up for sale separately but we will put him with mom in this special package!!  </p>
<p>We are now offering Nutmeg with her newest cria Chili Pepper.  Chili is Nutmeg&#8217;s second cria and she is beautiful!  Another strong cria, born November 1, 2009.  She is growing like a weed and what fun to watch!  Pick up the pair as great fiber or pet quality livestock.<br />
Nutmeg&#8217;s parents came from Canada and they were not dual registered so Nutmeg can not be registered but, a wonderful pet quality, great mom and now available with her newest cria Chili Pepper by her side!  </p>

When this little one was born, we were stunned and new that this is the quality that we strive for. Born with tight curls and healthy, &#8220;Frenchie&#8221; was the hit of the farm. She got exactly every wonderful quality from both her parents and is sure to be a blue ribbon winner. We added the Accoyo from her father and the match was superb. With lineage like Snowmass, Pperuvian Felix, Peruvian Hemingway, PPeruvian Caligula Pperuvian Vengador and Cimarron Rio Blanco, Frenchie is sure to take the blue everytime!!!! Need more proof? Check out those fiber stats!!!!<br />
See her in person.  She will be with us and going into the ring.  Check back to see how well she does!<br />
UPDATE:  Frenchie just took the 2nd place win in the NJ Alpaca Show!</p>

<a href="http://themarshfarm.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/01/frenchie6.jpg" rel="lightbox[357]"><img src="http://themarshfarm.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/01/frenchie6-150x150.jpg" alt="frenchie6" title="frenchie6" width="150" height="150" class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-288" /></a><br />
When this little one was born, we were stunned and new that this is the quality that we strive for. Born with tight curls and healthy, &#8220;Frenchie&#8221; was the hit of the farm. She got exactly every wonderful quality from both her parents and is sure to be a blue ribbon winner. We added the Accoyo from her father and the match was superb. With lineage like Snowmass, Pperuvian Felix, Peruvian Hemingway, PPeruvian Caligula Pperuvian Vengador and Cimarron Rio Blanco, Frenchie is sure to take the blue everytime!!!! Need more proof? Check out those fiber stats!!!!<br />
See her in person.  She will be with us and going into the ring.  Check back to see how well she does!<br />
UPDATE:  Frenchie just took the 2nd place win in the NJ Alpaca Show!</p>

		<description><![CDATA[<p>October 2, 2009</p>
<p>As Northern farms are starting to buckle down for the winter, we start on baby watch!!!  Being in Florida gives us an edge on birthing season and our moms love the cooler weather during their last trimester.  Up first, Barbi Doll.  We bought her open but soon realized she just didn&#8217;t like ANY of our boys.  A phone call later, found out she could be pregnant and sure enough we get a great surprise and gift.  Thanks to some quick breeding by our friends the Vining&#8217;s and their boy Shadow Dancer, we are looking for a cria within the next 2 weeks!!  Soon to follow, Kathy Cramer from Meadow Pointe Alpacas has an amazing girl Gracie due with our newest herdsire Ruger, the first Ruger baby to hit the ground in Florida!!!  On to our Nutmeg and then Spiced Cider owned by Kathy and Mark Weber of Wooly Weber&#8217;s Alpacas is due with our next Ruger baby!   Watch for pictures and hopefully a birth live on our cam if I can catch it!!!  </p>
<p>We take a break then 4 more due in the spring.   The biggest anticipation will be in April when our Willie will go for her third birth.  Why the anticipation you ask?   Well, her first cria was born 3 1/2 weeks early (our blue eyed white Tutu) and she ran away never to return.   We got her pregnant again and figured with maiden&#8217;s it can happen, mother nature didn&#8217;t kick in but next time she will.   Well, she birthed Payton 5 days early and did like him a bit more but refused to feed him as well.  We drugged her, milked her, tied her but nothing worked.<br />
3 times a charm or 3 strikes your out!!!!!  If you see our Willie go up for sale after April and really cheap, you will know what happened!!!!   Keep your fingers crossed as we are, we may need any help we cn get.  If I have to feed another bottle baby, i am going to scream!<a href="http://themarshfarm.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/01/alpacaborder.jpg" rel="lightbox[333]"><img src="http://themarshfarm.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/01/alpacaborder.jpg" alt="alpacaborder" title="alpacaborder" width="569" height="50" class="alignleft size-full wp-image-316" /></a></p>

<p>I haven&#8217;t blogged in so long, don&#8217;t know where to begin!  It has been a crazy year with new babies this spring and last fall, 2 bottle babies, boys, boys, boys, inducing labor for the first time, maidens with a few rough births but all in all, it has been a great year!!!!!<br />
<a href="http://themarshfarm.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/updated-pic-of-staz.jpg" rel="lightbox[328]"><img src="http://themarshfarm.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/updated-pic-of-staz-150x150.jpg" alt="Our Staz" title="Our Staz" width="150" height="150" class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-329" /></a><br />
<a href="http://themarshfarm.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/mennicholasemail.jpg" rel="lightbox[328]"><img src="http://themarshfarm.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/mennicholasemail-150x150.jpg" alt="mennicholasemail" title="mennicholasemail" width="150" height="150" class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-330" /></a></p>
<p>The sad before the good.  Rest in peace to one of the most amazing alpacas we have owned.  Our Staz was coming up on 14 years. She seemed to drag just a bit last summer with her pregnancy and we had decided even before she gave birth to retire her and just live her life out on our farm.   At birth, she didn&#8217;t have any milk and with a weak little boy by her side, she allowed us to bring in her little boy in the house every night to bottle feed all night over the first month.  She always greeted us with kisses to us and her baby in the morning and just loved her little man.  About a month after birthing she cushed and never got up.  We had to euthanize her 2 days later.<br />
To our Staz, a warm, loving, caring, easy handler and greatest mom we have ever owned.  Thank you for giving us so much love in our lives and for giving us our greatest gift&#8230;&#8230;you and now in our hearts forever, Nicholas. Now you all know why my Nicholas is so close to my heart.<a href="http://themarshfarm.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/01/alpacaborder.jpg" rel="lightbox[328]"><img src="http://themarshfarm.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/01/alpacaborder.jpg" alt="alpacaborder" title="alpacaborder" width="569" height="50" class="alignleft size-full wp-image-316" /></a></p>
