Interesting though it is, the idea of using Alpacas to guard laying hens that this article talks about, is just cute beyond reason.
Got to love the BBC.
Enjoy your foreign farming news,

We are NOT getting a llama.
period.
You, Brandon, should totally get your hair trimmed like that!
You guys should totally get llama's.. riding llamas!
Wife: Of COURSE we aren't getting a llama... those are ALPACAS silly. Llamas might not be as good a guards for our girls.
Tony -- you are assuming I have hair to trim sir.
Bentley -- instigator.
It'd rock.
I should find pictures of the laughing llama II Mini mart, with its 20+ llama's :P
My friends in England have 4 alpacas. They're vegan, so I don't think they would get chickens. BTW, one day old alpacas are pretty cute.
I bet baby alpacas are cute. :-)
