Willow Glen Farm in Farm Life, baby llama, cria

I typed that previous post just a bit too soon! Confetti had a beautiful little girl at about 5:15 this afternoon. I saw the birth from the time the feet were sticking out. I got some great pictures, but I'll share those later.

For now, we can just enjoy the cuteness of a baby llama!

Just out, slimy and wet. Starr is very, very interested in the new arrival. They look so much alike because they're half-sisters.

At this point, I had to put Starr in the barn. She was so enthralled with the new baby that she wasn't letting Confetti get close to her. There was some spitting and neck wrestling, but I got them separated before there was scratching and hair pulling. 

LLAMA FACE! One brown eye and one blue eye, and some crazy black lipstick!

Up!

But a bit unsteady.

Only a mother could love?
