Do you anesthetize the alpaca first?

[ValleyAlpacas]

No need.

what do you lay on her neck?

[ValleyAlpacas]

Its a sand bag (an old pair of jeans), keeps her still and prevents any damage to her neck. Hope this helps.

@ValleyAlpacas why don't you just have a head man? makes life a lot easier. then you aren't having to waste time moving it yourself.
