The water “fountain” in the pasture

When the alpacas go to the pasture, the boys can go into the small pond by the windmill, but the girls are fenced off in a separate area of the pasture, so we ran a water line to their area, and feed water from the windmill into a tub for drinking, and to make a small water area for them to cool their bellies, where the temperature regulator of their body is.

Earlyne likes to drink right from the “fountain” as the water is cold, coming out of the hose to the tub:

The water overflows from the tub and eventually fills up the rocky area so that all nine female alpacas can get into it when they need to cool off.
