Look who turned 1 this week!

Tulio and Miguel’s birthdays were this past week. They both turned one. To celebrate we had a birthday party! The guys received yum yum’s and new halters. They went for a ride to a local park to go hiking.

Presents!

The llamas received new halters. Their original ones are getting too small. Tulio’s was on the last notch and even that seemed too tight. We ordered two medium – large, we thought they were fixed ring, halters online. When they came in it was obvious that these are just too large and we are unsure about the slip ring.

Now we found another site online with llama halters. This time we chose to order medium halters that state fixed ring in the description. We also decided on the color red over the original black halters. The halters fit great. Tulio and Miguel are very pleased with their new halters.

New grazing grounds

With the weather turning colder with hot days here and there. The grass is not growing as tall. We moved the guys to the front fenced in pond to allow them to have new grazing grounds and eat all the pond weeds. To my surprise the ducks did not mind Tulio and Miguel up there. I know the llamas enjoy it.

Field Trip!

We recently purchased a used two horse trailer so we may travel with our llamas. The trailer needs some work but it works for our use. We took the boys to a local park. There we hiked with them on the bridle trails. That was an adventure. The look on Tulio and Miguel’s faces when they seen the large horse walk by. They where stunned, Miguel more so than Tulio.

After a successful long hike they where ready to go home. They are difficult to load in the trailer but after that hike I think they went in easier. With their excitement Tulio and Miguel stayed standing instead of laying down as normal llamas do when traveling.

Stay up to date on Tulio and Miguel and their travels here.
