Newly Weaned
Alpaca Boys
Written by Julie Wysong
Today I
went to check on the newly weaned alpaca boys. Weaning is when we remove the
baby alpacas, called cria, from their mothers. These little guys were doing
just fine. They were wondering inside the barn after seeing how windy it was
outside. Let me introduce them to you. Lawrence
is the one with multiple colors. You can’t really see from the video but he has
gray ears. Standing beside him is
Kimble. Kimble is a fawn color which is a light brown shade. Kimble is the one
that is flirting with the camera. He is so curious. Every time I walk near him
he will flirt with me. He would flirt with you too. Joshua is about the same
color as Kimble. He came walking passed. You can almost see how soft and
luxurious his fiber is. Joshua is the biggest of all these jr. hersires.
Finally Montgomery got the courage to come in and walk past me. There will be one more to join this group but
for now these 4 little guys will try to get used to not being with their
mothers. They are doing just fine.
