First Baby of the Year!

Chocolate Liberty has had her first cria and it is our first for the year!  She had a beautiful white boy with a couple of brown and grey spots.  The process was not as smooth as her mothers but she has been an excellent mother since she passed her placenta.  She does not leave his side.  He was 24.4 lbs and is already very friendly.  See photos in the extended entry.

2 Confirmed Pregnant, 1 Maybe

Well, we only planned to breed two females this year.  AGO Janna Grace (after 1 yr open) and Chocolate Liberty (Maiden).  Turns out BBF Chocolate Truffles (1 yr open) didn't want to be left out and Bean helped her by jumping the fence (yes, 400 + lbs over the fence) and breeding her.  The first two girls bred have been ultrasounded and confirmed pregnant.  Truffles excursion took place last night so we won't know on her for a little bit.  Both Libby and Truffles are bred to XL Bar LL Bean and Janna is bred to Hobby Horse A Fistful of Dollars.  We are looking forward to our 2009 crias.

2008 Breedings

Well, we've started our breeding for the year.  Our females were left open in 2007 so we will not be having any crias in 2008 but we did start our breeding.  We have one female alpaca, Janna Grace and she is being bred to Hobby Horse A Fistful of Dollars.  She has spit at Clint so she should be set.  Our second female we are breeding is a maiden and her name is Chocolate Liberty.  She is being bred to XL Bar LL Bean, we have only been able to breed her once so far as the weather has not permitted additional breedings.  We'll see if the once took.

Wyoming's Indian Outlaw

We are very excited about getting Outlaw registered so that he can go to two shows this spring.  We are looking at the Lama Market in Chippewa Falls and the Northern WI State Fair in Eau Claire.  If he does well in these shows we may show him in the fall at a show in MI.  If all goes well this year we may look into getting him Kearned next year so that hopefully he will be eligable to be a member of the SLA.  We'll keep you informed to how he does!

Janna Grace Produces two fine males

 

Produce/Janna Grace

 

This is Janna Grace's last two cria, FireHawk is now going to be two and Kentucky Bourboun is turning one.  There are great similarities among all of her crias and these two boys are no exception.  They have gorgous fiber, with very low microns, great staple length and crimp.  They also have lustre.  FireHawk will be available for breedings with in the next year and watch for tuck down the road!

XL Bar LL Bean

XL Bar LL Bean is a great male standing as our llama stud.  He has a very heavy fleece and is very large boned.  He weighs any where between 400 and 450 lbs and stands very tall.  He is a multi in color with greys, browns and white.  His legs are poka dotted.  We are currently offering breedings to this gentle but strong male for $500.00.  This is not an introductory price but is subject to change.

2007 Llama Cria - Wyoming's Indian Outlaw

We are very excited about this little llama boy.  His name, Wyoming's Indian Outlaw, he is an adorable suri llama boy.  He is a very light color with the potential to grey out as he ages.  He is very large boned and spent the first few months of his life in Wyoming.  When he came back at just three months of age, he weighed 62 lbs.  He has nice ears and a very curious personality.  We will show him in the fall.
