Alpacas are the farming equivalent of one of those cursed items that you can only give away to get rid of the curse but finding someone willing to accept it is near impossible.

Go on, I don't know anything about alpacas. Why is this the case?

Wool is difficult to harvest and very low quality, and they eat more than sheep

I would love to see the books (as if anyone is doing the books on the ranch) to see how much of a deficit those alpacas are. The food alone (albeit meagre rations) must far out weight the income they bring in.

I wonder if that's the master plan with the franchise, "oh yes we'll cosign your loan to buy the ranch and amplify your ebegging and all you need to do is take some of these money pits wonderfully queer animals off our hands (for a nominal fee)."

They were given a year supply of hay. I’m not sure what program it was though. Does anyone know why they were eligible for it? It might just be something that beginning farmers in the area receive.

I think the rule is that an alpaca eats about 3 pounds a day (that seems low to me, but that’s what Google says), so the ~200 alpaca would require about 100 tons. It’s a not insignificant donation, but not an inconceivable one.

Not kosher but fine for Muhammed.View attachment 2123438

Huh, I thought that restriction was only for hooves animals.

I love the image of a bunch of muslim clerics sitting around a table trying to decide whether or not allah is cool with you eating a fucking giraffe.

That’s nothing. Rabbis have ruled that it’s kosher to build a Sukkah (hut for certain holidays) using a living elephant for one of the walls, but ONLY if you can make sure it won’t run away.

Which STD fan clubs are those flags for? I know they aren't the gay or tranny flags.

I think the one with purple is asexual people, maybe?

The one with all the uwu pink colors is for lesbians but other than that I've got no idea.

The green, gray, black, and white one is agender. The only reason I know this is because I took some troon test and because I don't obsess over my gender identity, it means that I'm agender (and a freak in the creator's eye). Not sure why Kevin says he's agender when he's very obsessed with being a woman.

 

[Gone Ham]

Funny how they don't have the rainbow flag. It's almost like they admit they only care about being troons and not the wider thing

 

[break these cuffs]

Ok, I went and looked it up and now I'm more confused than ever. The lesbian flag I'm seeing online is different from the one in the picture, but close enough. The purple and yellow is non-binary, not asexual like I thought. This site says the black and green on is aromantic, not asexual. I'm finding sites with upwards of 30 of these fucking things and tons of them have similar, or the same, colors just in different orders.

Hmm, that dudes a sound engineer from the looks, mic, headphones, shoulder slung bit of kit
Jesus, more fucking feel good thunk pieces from the captured media on the stunning and brave abominations shemales

Pure cope and dealing with the dissonance from the obvious fact he's a balding middle aged man with a rotting flayed penis

Beautiful very feminine jawline and unshaven face. What heterosexual man wouldn't ravish such a model of femininity?

If I didn't know better, I'd say that was a rare image of the elusive Earl.

 

[REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!]

Bearded man bun sound engineer? Must be an NPR interview.

I have encountered many people who were obsessed with or tried to raise alpacas and they were all absolutely fucking insane retards. Why the fuck does this poor species of animal attract utter psychos?

They’re cute and easy to handle. That’s the reason right there.

 

[Miss Misery]

The lack of imports meant a kind of pyramid scheme with breeding more alpacas to sell to people who wanted in

There's actually plenty of alpaca fiber imported from South America; that's why the troons can't find bulk buyers for their overpriced, shit-tier yarn with vegetation spun into it. They have to deal with the occasional woke-Etsy purchase. Also I think they sold maybe $10k of yarn last year? But check back in the thread for "etsy profits" or "etsy sales" to make sure.

I know a farm that manages to sell some of their boar meat and one of the selling points is the they're the only ones in the state, a dubious claim, who sell it. The meat is just a bit gamier than regular pork and yuppies want to eat not traditional meat to seem worldly. The price of unpopular cuts that farmers generally eat have risen dramatically in my region over recent years. Gone are the days of cheap chicken feet, cow tongue, liver, etc.

I don't know about alpaca meat, but boar in this context just means the male pigs raised on a farm. If your talking about wild boar, then they may. I don't live in an area with invasive wild pigs an don't don't know much about them. They're hunted enough for meat that they can't be any more dangerous than other game animals

If you ever come out west, we can go hunting for wild boar. It's a pain in the goddamn ass because they're smart and fast and aggressive, but NOTHING is better than wild boar ragù napoletano. As for their "male pigs raised on a farm"="boar", that seems... disingenuous. But I guess if you're in an area without invasive wild pig, then it's not so bad. And yeah, the precautions for boar are about the same as any game.

As for alpaca meat, it's not really consumed in the USA but apparently is pretty tasty. The Peruvians know what's up when it comes to the animal that provides them everything.

That’s ok look up the argument on giraffes and where to slaughter them in order for them to be kosher. It has to be on the neck and rabbis have been arguing forever on WHERE on the neck is the correct spot.

I’ve only encountered 2 farmers who had alpacas. 1 who ran sheep and used 3 of them for as livestock guardians and the other farmer had 4 of them cause he ran a petting zoo on the side.

Sorry, I wasn't clear. I meant that the importing of the actual alpacas was heavily limited, due to hoof-and-mouth disease, so people in America had to buy American bred alpacas. That was the pyramid scheme as people would by expensive well bred alpacas at auction, but their only value was breeding more stock to sell at auction.

Yes, the wool itself can be imported at a reasonable price point, the bubble was people speculating on alpaca wool taking a larger market in the future, outstripping South America's production capabilities.

That's because most of the weirdoes obsessed with alpacas are not farmers at all, they're insane fucking weirdoes.

Maybe instead of lolcows, they should have been called lolpacas.
