I shear mine every year between the 7 and 15th of May. It stays pretty cold here in Ohio til then.
I do my own shearing and that of two other farms in my area. This year I only did about 28 but last year was 39 I believe. I lost count. After being a dog groomer for over thirty years I do the alpacas with my Oster A-5s or my Andis clippers and a 7f blade. I like using them because I can sculpt the legs so they look like pantaloons. As you can see in the flash ad on the main page of this site, on the animal called Evil. He belongs to a friend, but was born here. I guess I may never get away from the old ways of my dog show days. I like them to look fancy.
Would the Sport weight be a good weight for a light weight afgan?
