They can be many different colours and patterns. As you can see in the second picture, there's a white/beige one. They can even be spotted !

is that its natural color? are all alpacas colored the same?

absolutely adorable! Love the second photo. Contrary to what most might think, the wool on the alpaca is very soft and not rough like sheep or lambs wool, which is one of the reasons why more and more alpaca farms are showing up.

They were so adorable ! I wanted to spend the day with them but we were only passing by. I stopped for a few pictures.
