I am in agreement of not reguiring the bloodwork for llamas and alpacas in the state of Virginia. In the past few years several states have dropped this requirement for transporting and showing. We look forward to attending llama shows in Virginia but with this extra expense and stress on the animals of having blood drawn we do not attend Virginia shows. If you make this a free state The proposal would mean that llamas and alpacas would not have to be tested for TB, brucellosis and bluetongue "free" states would only require a CVI issued within 30 days. Thank You
