Scarlett-Rose, Trinket and Her Cria and the Rest of the Gang

Sunday was a big day, I got to visit Freya and hold little Scarlett-Rose for the first time.  Lots of goo-ing and gaa-ing, and grandmother style gushing, she is very sweet - of course!!




Then I attended a Llama Assoc. meeting at Alpaca Magic, where there were new crias to meet.  This one needed a supplementary feed, and being held by Tanya looked like a giant of a cria even though she's only a day or so old!!


But it turns out she's just a normal size cria, and Tanya is the little one!!  LOL!!


While I was away Fresian gave birth to Alpha Centauri Alba's first son, we've called him Farquhar.  Here being introduced - across the fence - to Dad.




With mum, Fresian:



And he is as cute as a button!




 Yesterday Trinket's cria was a week old, its been a big week, her ears are coming up, yesterday they were at 45 degrees, today they are parallel to the ground and she's coming up onto her feet as well, still a bit to go, but getting there.  Also her teeth have come through.  Two important things happened yesterday, she gets a name - Jade Tigress (was going to be Princess, but changed it because of her brindled colouring) and I handed over all her feeds to her mother - that's a double YAYYY







Joeley is due next Thursday, though being a first timer I'm not expecting it to come on time!  She looks to have a good sized cria on board.



Big improver in the halter class today was Koko, he's a lovely boy and very affectionate.  Here he is sporting his new halter and lead - very dashing.




Also in class today, our star pupil, Bentley :)
