A brown alpaca looking at the camera while a fawn alpaca stands in the wooden feeder box inside a barn

The same setting with a black alpaca in the feeder box

A white alpaca standing outside at an angle looking at the camera

A Fawn alpaca, gray alpaca, black alpaca all standing in the dirt mound in the sun having the camera

Photo dump! Maybelle and Atreyu like to stand in the feeder while Maya hangs out; Gigi greeted me when i came out; Heidi, Lacy, and Coco looking like a gang on the dirt mound.

A photo of two Alpacas standing in their pen, a white one slightly forward on the right and a beige one slightly back and to the left, oriented close to the same angle, with the same face

An evening scene in a pen facing mountains and background trees, and several alpacas and the Cria mill about our cush by a light gray shed

A fawn alpaca facing her feeder inside the barn and the Cria peeks over the wall of a scale chute in a different stall behind her

Brothers Sirocco and Doc(front), Littlefoot hanging out with his aunties, Francesca inside the barn with Littlefoot on the scale photo bombing her😆 #alpacas #alpacacria #fluffy #cute

A cold front moved in so Littlefoot got his coat. Cindy, the gray female running, has been hanging out with him a lot.
Jason thinks he looks like a toy. #alpacaplay #alpacacria
Alt: a video following the Fawn Cria in a blue plaid coat as he walks then runs around his pen

"MOM MOOOOOOM MOMMY MOOOOOM!"

At least Littlefoot is running and moving around the nice big space, but i really need him to settle down and eat.
Poor Mommy's boy.
#fluffy #alpacacria #cute

Littlefoot's still weaning and Becky seems like she's okay, but i will monitor them of course. I'm not afraid of him nursing through the bars like Gigi did, but that he will pine for mommy instead of eating. I'll move his creep feeder too, just haven't decided where.
#alpacacria #alpacas #cute

Littlefoot took a long walk to the uncles again, and you can tell he was excited. His sire Mac made a point to be right there to greet him too🥰
I know it's more like they're sizing Littlefoot up as the new guy, but i like to think Mac recognizes him.

I managed Cindy and Maya by myself on previous days, and Atreyu, Isabel, and Maybelle by myself today.
But Honey and Caroline(she barged in with Journey one day) are harder to handle. Honey was the one who peed on me.

The same farmer urging a cross to move with a brown alpaca behind

A black alpaca on a purple halter and red lead going into a green metal and white plastic scale chute inside a barn

Today was A DAY.
I got peed on🤣 and I'm so sore and exhausted i almost forgot to post.

Gigi(first pic) got stuck in some fencing i was using as part of a feeder, but we got her out safely.

Fawn alpaca Cria on a halter and lead inside his Barn

Light brown alpaca cushed at an angle on the ground and looking at the camera

So fluffy we can't see the eyes🤣
Littlefoot was good for a couple visitors today and was very sweet.
Later, Nugget was just being cute cushed like that.

So assuming nobody tries to eat the Halloween Garland, perhaps that will slow them down for roosting in certain places and pooping everywhere. #alpacas #alpacacria

Two photos of a fawn cria interacting with a dark gray alpaca with white on her forehead and nose, with other alpacas at the feeder behind them

Cindy got to move in with Littlefoot and the three other babysitters today. She was there when he was born. She's a sweet shy girl.

Just some cute photos.

A Fawn alpaca Cria snuggles a pyrenees dog inside the barn with other alpacas at the feeder nearby

Cuteness overload caught on the security cam this morning, Littlefoot decided to cush with Smith for a snuggle! #alpacacria #livestockguardians #cute

Haltertraining Littlefoot has gone well.
#alpacas #alpacacria #alpacauncle #cute
Alt: two videos showing a cria on halter and lead meeting adult alpacas through a fence

Littlefoot went on a short walk on the south side of the barn and said hi to aunties and dogs through the fence.

#alpacas #alpacacria #haltertraining #cute

Then Littlefoot got excited after his weigh-in(fawn cria pronking out of the barn to other alpacas).
#alpacas #alpacapronk #alpacacria #livestockguardians

The dogs caught the distant siren and went off, and the girl alpacas weren't sure what to think(alpacas standing around their pen as the three dogs howl).

Fluffy fawn cria standing in the chute facing away and looking over the side

One black and one dark gray alpaca standing in their pen facing the right with the sunset behind them

Littlefoot can't turn around in the scale now, he's too big!
Atreyu and Cindy pose for me in front of the sunset.
Three pictures of the moon at different rise positions.

Becky still likes me!
I managed to get a selfie with Doc! He looks so much like his mama Minnie.
Xena gets to babysit now, Littlefoot isn't sure what to think of that.
Valkyrie has been a good girl and she is proud of herself.

Thanks to taxes, i forgot to post last night😅🫠
Here's Littlefoot's walk video though. I try to walk them in weird places so they learn not to be scared of equipment or sounds, etc. Gates are still terrifying lol.
#alpacas #alpacacria #haltertraining #fluffy

It got dark fast sitting chores but the groceries and Rx weren't going to go pick up themselves. This was all i had time for. Littlefoot was generally still peeved about the shot yesterday but was still a good boy. #alpacacria #alpacacoat #fluffy #cute #loaf Alt: two photos of the same baby alpaca wearing a blue plaid coat, one standing in a scale chute, but it'll still light out and blonde in the dark with a flashlight on him, cushed on the ground

Maya has been itching to go on Littlefoot's walks. She was 10 mo old when we got her and was bottle raised, so she's really into human-time and maybe a little jealous of Littlefoot. She was really excited 😆
#alpacas #haltertraining #alpacacria #fluffy #cute #walking

He also weighed over 50 pounds today!
#alpacacria #alpacas #haltertraining #cute #fluffy

A Fawn Cria very wet body sideways and face looking at the camera with a brown alpaca behind him looking away on the other side of a fence

Littlefoot was basically a wet rag today🤣 completely dry under the surface tho.
Auntie Maya watches out as i give him his juice.
No walk today due to the rain, it was all i had in me just to get chores done.
#wetalpaca #alpacacria

2 videos from Littlefoot's walk today. He's getting more confident. It helps that he's had so much contact with me for other reasons, as he already trusts me. All total it was less than 5 minutes. #alpacas #alpacacria #haltertraining

He's learning really fast! I'm not putting much pressure on that lead. I really love halter training because it's a chance to really deepen that trust. Go Littlefoot!
#alpacacria #haltertraining #itssofluffy

Littlefoot took some good steps on the halter today and aunty Maya was there to cheer him on. She's always been such a helper🥰
I employ a lot of herd Dynamics when i pick group mates.

Then I also got a little video of some of the girls wrestling. The white one up front is Lexie, the two girls on the mound are Lacey and Coco.
