Llamas, like cats, are very curious and nosy. My son Nic and I think that for this reason, llamas should be called a curious of llamas rather than a herd.
The following photos are offerred in support of this proposal.
Please also note that llamas are famous for their bravery in guarding herds left in their charge. Two of the photos below will show how truly able they are at guarding a person holding a bucket of feed. Enjoy!
We ate the flower appetizers, can we tour the house now?
I wanna play, do you?
Can we help with the pruning?
Grain? Who has the bucket of grain?
What's in the bucket?
I think the right profile is best. What do you think?
Is that a camera? Can I smell it?
What is it?
Did your mom use hot water when she washed you? You shrunk!

We only breed for a few babies each year. Last spring (2008) the stud was new and produced no babies. This year March started off with a still born for a first time mom. But in April and May we were blessed with two gorgeous girls.
The spring babies are now 6 months old and huge compared to the fall arrival. Crias grow remarkably fast:
Twinkle at 6 months, Indy in the background
Spring babies as newborns:
- Twinkle sharing kisses with her mom S’More Brandy
Twinkle arrived on 4-13-09, shearing day.
The babies will nurse for at least 6 months. It is always my preference to allow them to wean naturally but, that is not always possible. Sometimes the nursing baby pulls the mother down.
Dragoness arrived on Mother’s day.
Dragoness was only several hours old when this photo was taken.
