Two more new crias. Mint's new little boy and Vicky Belle's little girl. No names yet. Sometimes it takes a day or so for them to tell me what their names are to be. This little blond is Mint's new boy, in the background Felicity is sporting her new hair cut. Our Rose Rain is pictured at top.
Vicky's girl was born last night. She didn't want to nurse and had globs of her birth sac stuck in her mouth and nose. Very gross. Even after cleaning her out she wouldn't nurse. We milked mom and got 2 ounces of colostrum down her. This morning the same story so we loaded her and mom into the truck and off to the vet we went. She has a very low IGg and they will monitor her for another 24-48 hrs to see if it will come up or if a possible transfusion is necessary. No pictures of her yet. All the other alpacas are enjoying their new shorn selves, especially since it has suddenly turned hot.
