I'm a Llama Farmer!
Thursday, July 7, 2011 at 10:14PM Can you even believe it?!! I went to The Critter Ranch today, picked up Starr and Confetti, brought them home, and became a farmer! I'm still all giddy.
Since pictures are much more fun--here ya go!
Confetti is the tan and white one and Starr is the darker brown and white one. They know something is up!
How do you transport two llamas to your new farm 45 minutes away? In a minivan.
We walked them around their new pen and the kids got in the pasture to check out the girls.
They did just fine and settled right in. Both of them are happily munching grass and Starr even took a roll in the hay.
Kat wanted to show the "mamas" her kitty toy.
Brendan plans to work with Starr on pack training, and Morgan and Matt just want to hug them. I don't blame the kids--they're pretty adorable creatures.
Both girls are pregnant, and we'll be keeping Confetti's baby when it arrives next Spring, but Starr's little one will go back to Sue at The Critter Ranch once it's weened.
And we haven't forgotten about sheep--they're coming on Saturday!!
